The suicide rate of pre-teens and teens is increasing at an alarming rate. Here are some danger signs that may indicate your teen is considering suicide. *Giving away of prize possessions *Spending increasing amounts of time alone *Statements like "Nobody cares what happens to me" or discussions about how someone may kill him/herself *A loss of a significant other *Decrease in grades * Sudden elation of mood. Very, very dangerous as it may be an indication that the teen has made the decision to go ahead with suicide plans.
Talk to the teen let him/her know you care. Seek professional help immediately.
