Teenage suicide statistics show shocking numbers of needless deaths.

Teenage Suicide StatisticsSuicide brings emotional devastation to children, grandchildren, parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents and friends of the victim. These survivors are not included in the teenage suicide statistics that are available to us.• Teenage suicide statistics are a part of these numbers: • 31,000 suicides a year in the U.S., the 3rd leading cause of death in people 15 – 24 years old, and the 11th leading cause over all age groups[4]. • Worldwide, nearly a million people commit suicide every year, more than those murdered or killed in war.[1] • Global annual teenage suicide statistics, reported for these fatalities could rise to 1.5 million by 2020.

Suicide: No Respecter of Persons1. Worldwide, a suicide is completed every 40 seconds. Teenage suicide statistics are not specifically identified. 2. Children are left behind after most suicides. Most of these children experience the grief stages without preparation for coping with suicide. Consider these groups that suicide statistics place at particularly high risk:
An International Problem:Annual teenage suicide statistics are a part of the far reaching impact of the overall numbers. . .Some examples reflect these rates per 100,000 people:• Consider the 7.9 per 100,000 rate for 15-24 year olds in the US. If you live in a large U.S.city, (New York, for example with an estimated 2003 population of 19,190,115) that would mean over 1300 suicides a year in that age group alone. • In Australia in 2001 suicide statistics reveal 7.1 suicides per 100,000 across all populations. The city of Brisbane has around 957,000 inhabitants, within a greater metropolitan area of 1.77 million people, so we are talking about 119 suicides in a year in the extended area. • Thousands are left confused and lonely, following the suicide of a loved one, leaving them at higher risk for depression and suicide themselves. • UK suicide statistics for 2003 totalled 5,755 [2] • Suicide statistics show 3,681 self-inflicted deaths in Canada in 1997[3] • 460 people died by suicide in New Zealand in 2002. [5] • Dr. Catherine Le Galès-Camus, WHO Assistant Director-General Non Communicable Diseases and Mental Health, reports that suicide statistics have devastating results for survivors. “For every suicide death there are scores of family and friends whose lives are devastated emotionally, socially and economically.”[6] • Did you know that about 80% of survivors in the U.S. are grieving the death of an adult male.Teenage suicide statistics do not include the number of survivors who are children and teens.
A Personal Letter from KarenFrom: Karen GrishamSaturday, May 24, 2008 Dear Visitor; You can see, by these teenage suicide statistics, that thousands of young lives are being affected daily by the tragic results of suicides. The only way to change this is to step in and do your part. The way we handle child bereavement, trauma and depression today will significantly impact teenage suicide statistics and prevention in future generations. Will you act now to comfort and mentor today’s survivors? Frequently, families with special needs, stresses and challenges have higher rates of disruption. Without intervention, these families are at risk to become part of future teenage suicide statistics. The most recent teenage suicide statistics do not factor in these pre-existing stressors in families. So it becomes more difficult to make direct comparisons among the family structures of those who complete suicide. Nevertheless, survivors grieving a death have more distress if the cause of death is suicide. The stigma of suicide often leaves them with no one to talk to, and nowhere to go for comfort. As a parent, grandparent and professional Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I find these teenage suicide statistics appalling and I am certain you do too. This is why I am appealing to you, to please help stop this epidemic! Will you step in and provide comfort and hope for those coping with suicide loss? Please join me in working to change these unacceptable teenage suicide statistics by learning to communicate hope to those coping with suicide grief. Let's teach our children how to successfully manage loss while we still have time. Blessings as you advocate for the children,
