RUSSIA 16-year-old teenager was experiencing long-term bullying and rejection at school. These problems drove him to suicide. He videotaped himself throwing himself off a balcony. From a height of several dozen feet, he landed on a parked car and died at the scene.
The mental stability of teenagers is very fragile, and problems that may seem trivial to us adults can be seen as major by adolescent children. It is also a time in life when children want to become adults and it is not entirely normal for them to confide in their parents, even if you think you have a good relationship with them. Always monitor your child’s behaviour carefully and look out for even the slightest changes. Don’t be afraid to ask them, but be empathetic and understanding.
If you’re thinking about suicide, please stop and recognize that your pain is not permanent, but this step would be. It may feel like there’s no other way, but there is hope, even if it’s hard to see right now. Your feelings are temporary, and with help, they can pass.
Talking about what you're going through might feel difficult, but it’s the first step toward healing. Don’t turn away from the people who want to support you. Life can offer more than what you're feeling right now, and the pain doesn't have to last forever. You deserve help, and it’s available.
If you need immediate help, please contact a helpline.
