Question by Waxy: What is a good remedy for suicidal thoughts?

The reasons behind a teen’s suicide or attempted suicide are often complex.

To help sort through these issues, and to learn the warning signs that your teen might need help, it’s important to understand the forces that can lead teens to suicide and to understand what you can do to help.
