Suicide is basically a way of saying “screw it, whats the point”…
People need to be strong and move on, dealing with day to day issues can be frustrating – but in the end, once you’ve overcome the day – you feel great!

Kids need to know, hey @ 15 yrs old – you have no IDEA….

I am so sorry for the death of these teens, I can not imagine what a terrible thing this is to go through. No one should ever have to bury thier own children.

These stories are confusing. One says 2 teenage girls, and this one says one girl and her boyfriend (the same girl mentioned in the first story). I’m confused.

Where is the National Suicide hotline number while you are doing all these stories about the loss of these two children. It is our job as a society to do what we can to prevent suicide in all ages. Please do your part, when you are telling these stories over and over again place numbers that people can call. Get some experts on to give warning signs of what people need to look for. Please lets do all we can to stop suicide. I know the pain that it leaves behind. I am Zach’s grandma.

Suicide hotlines need FUNDING and VOLUNTEERS. Contact your local hotline and find out how you can help!
