Why I choose this topic

I choose this topic mainly to get a better understanding of why suicide is such a big situation happening in the United States but it seems no one will actully do something to stop it. There is certain questions I am using to base my blog off of. These are questions that everyone needs to think of and also think of all the people who have lost a life for bullying going unoticed. Stand up, Speak out, Save a life.

-Is Bullying more the cause of suicide or is there a worse cause?
-Why do the ones who are suicidal and bullied keep it to theirselves till its too late?
-How can the ones who know someone being bullied help this person before it effects others as well as the one being hurt?
-Should there be stricter rules to prevent suicide from occuring in schools and any public place?
-What if people treated people the way they should be, would this sitiuation decrease?

Describing the Undescriable

When they're to far gone...

She is always been a part of the background

But no body ever notices because she is to scared to make a noise

All these years shes been here has got worse and worse

They pick and hit and hurt and push her aside as if rehersed

 

She has been the one always bullied by the "in crowd"

To be popular they always kick her down

Well she has decided today is the day

The day that she will say

 

"I cant take being here any longer,

They know im here but doesnt care

All the rules to help stop this

Has went to waste just like me.

 

They will see what they have caused

No one cared to help the one who was harmed

Harmed by careless words and actions.

This might not help them notice but im taking the chance.

Sorry to the ones this may hurt but I cant take this any longer

Teachers and others have seen what they are doing to me

But the more known the more action taken so nothings done

They will regret what they have done, indirectly or directly.

 

So here I am and here I go

In the background I came and in the known I go

This may not be the best way out

But this is the one who will show what damage can be done

 

When I along with many others are tortured by the ones we know and go unoticed."

Story Behind My Topic

Suicide is the third leading cause of death in Americans especially 10 year olds to 25 years old.  By statistics, fifteen is the age you will begin to think of these things usually, and if you know people that has did this personally. Usually teenagers don’t pull through with it but the ones that do keep their plan a secret because they are scared they will be in trouble for what they plan to do. Suicide is usually caused from any dramatic event, bullying, drinking or drugs. There are approximately two to four hundred suicide attempts among youths for every completed suicide.  Mainly, suicides are committed because of bullying, for example, “oh you’re such a coward you could not do anything to yourself if you even wanted to”, or “why can’t you do anything right, your useless”. There is so many ways to help prevent this and lower the rates of suicide within teens since it has nearly tripled since the year 1950. I have had some people I know that has wanted to or have committed suicide due to many reasons. Its not a good thing to go through at all, let alone when you know it is coming. There is so many signs to this that you could notice if only you looked around and actually cared about them. Instead of doing whats best for you, take a look around you. You never know who is next, it could be one know and love...
