suicide

OK today its going to be on SUICIDE. Okay like always if you get offended easily please don't read this. OK I am going to start of with some statistics on suicide they are from 2010 so yes they are up to date.

GENERAL FACT:
  • Over 34,000 people in the United States die by suicide every year.
  • Every day, approximately 90 Americans take their own life.
  • A person dies by suicide about every 15 minutes in the United States. 
YOUTH FACTS:
  • Suicide is the third leading cause of death among those 15-24 years old.
  • Among young people aged 10-14 years, the rate has doubled in the last two decades.
  • Suicide is the fifth leading cause of death among those 5-14 years old.

 okay know this is what i have to say about this ok it is my opinion so don"t be getting mad at me. to me suicide isn't that big of a deal like don't get me wrong people, no one should go off and try suicide or go through with it but then again all they are trying to do is get away from the problems that is going on in there life. So yes it is sad when someone commits suicide especially when you are close to that person but i put more blame on the "bullies" and the people who end up forcing that person to do what they did ok cause the people who bully don't have to make the persons life miserable its a choice they make and its sad when a person especially young people take their lives because stubborn kids that decide to make it worse.

and i know this isn't the best blog i have made and i probably went a little of subject but the thing is no one should bully people or go off telling people they shouldn't be in this world cause that is bad.

so just know for all the bullies out there just know when you bully someone to the point of suicide you should be really ashamed of yourself knowing that you could have prevented that persons early death

Man suicide is a huge subject man, I had a friend commit suicide that went to spring creek and he didnt realize all the people that really loved him and how much he would be missed. So I say think about that stuff before ya do it. my favorite quote "Be strong now because things will get better, it may be stormy now but it can't rain forever"
