  2. Teen Social Media Dependence • Suicide is not just an action that offshoots from a mental health problem, but also a preventable public health issue affecting youngsters more than people of other age groups. • A recent report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) of the United States suggests that suicide rates among adolescents have been steadily rising since 2007.

  3. Teen Social Media Dependence • The CDC analysis looked at the data between 1975 and 2015 to find that suicides rates that were declining from 1990 to 2007 rose again from 2007 to 2015. • Rather than stigmatizing such innate fears and mental health complications, people wrestling with suicidal thoughts need to be given adequate opportunities to open up.

  4.

  6. Risk Factors For Teenage Suicide • The increase in suicide rates is also happening at a time when teen depression rates are rising while the stigma or fear of ostracizing prevents the vulnerable groups from getting the help they need. • They attribute this phenomenon to heavy social media use, bullying, economic constraints, family issues and exposure to violence.

  7. Risk Factors For Teenage Suicide • Financial hardship: The increase in suicide rates between 2007 and 2015 occurred at a time of financial depression. An economic recession is a life-changing factor that inflicts innumerable constraints, often coercing adults and even children to commit suicide. • Exposure to violence: Any kind of exposure to traumatic events, such as child abuse, neglect, bullying, sexual violence, etc., increases the risk of developing depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety disorder, suicidal tendencies, etc. • Negative impact of social media: While there is a huge potential to prevent and reduce suicide via social media, negative exposure to cyber bullying, competitive feeling due to comparison and glamorization of suicide are a major risk factor among adolescents.
