We need to, pay attention to these, teenagers, to guide them, out of their, depressed states, to prevent the tragedies from happening, to catch them before they actually, fall too, hard…but the signs are, too easily, missed…off of the Newspapers, translated…
There's that, steady, hike in teenage suicide rate in the country right now, the psychiatrist of the Department of Health & Social Welfare Hospital in Taoyuan, Su said, that there are many reasons why the suicide rate of teens can't get lower, the teens are in pursue of that sense of belonging with their, peers, and the affirmation of the authority figures, plus their hormones, they have experience the emotional ups and downs, and when they are faced with a problem, they would feel self-doubt, and the sense of, worthlessness, and impulsively act on the self-harming, behaviors.
The psychotherapist of Taichung Hospital, Liu told, that in the coming of age of the teenagers, they may face the pressures of the academic, interpersonal relation difficulties, especially now, with the internet access, including FB, the LINE Groups, and other social networking platforms, the number of kudos, the comments, it all, affects the minds of the teenagers, to the point of causing them to feel depressed, or have thoughts of, suicide.
Liu mentioned, that if the teen started refusing to go to school, changes her/his schedules, it may be the teen's showing signs of anxiety, or depression that came from the pressures of their external environments, that the parents needed to stay calm, and listen to their children, to communicate with your teens in a rational, manner.

Su pointed out, that the government is offering resources for the teens who are showing signs of depression, or show suicidal tendencies, he'd suggested, that the government should offer the convenience of counseling to children under age fifteen as well, to accompany these teens, before the sings of depression, or suicide surface.
So, this is on prevention, but, you can't really, prevent it, because, everything IS a build up, and the suicide attempt, that's, just, the FINAL straw that crushed these, younger generations' backs, and, because the adults don't normally, pay attention, until the signs started showing, and, these signs had been, building up, to that maximum, then, it BLOWS, and that's why, the suicide rate of teens are, at an, all time, high, with the influences from social media, there's the cyberbullying, the academic pressures, not getting along with one's parents, and the genetic predispositions to depression and anxiety, and all that combined, into, the MOLOTOV cocktail of the SUICIDAL attempts of teens.
