Suicide is a permanent solution to your temporary problems.

Today I found out that a student at the high school I teach at committed suicide. She was a senior, a good student, and a very intelligent young lady.
It saddens me that many young people should feel that ending their life is the best way to solve any problem.
PLEASE, IF YOU KNOW OF ANYONE WHO IS DEPRESSED OR FEELS OVERWHELMED WITH LIFE, TELL SOMEONE. GET THEM HELP.

Are there any suicide prevention hotlines at the school that you teach at?

@justanothername Not that I know of, but will check into it and/or suggest it.

@IM5688 Found out today that yes, they have grief counselors and other professionals making themselves available to all the students should they need it or want it.
