K sao chép nha write a letter to your friend about one of your problems related to pressure from your family

MANY teenagers are deprived of love, feel unwanted or think that they are a burden to their families or friends. Some try to kill themselves, thinking that it is the only way to solve a problem. Some feel that committing suicide will relieve them of their guilt, anger or shame. For them, suicide is the best way to end their suffering.

Some who suffer from depression also think that suicide is the only way out. Last year, it was reported that a student who was going to sit for SPM took his life because he couldn’t take the pressure.

There are many factors that can contribute to suicides. For example, when teenagers cannot cope with adult problems or the pressure of exams, depression sets in.

Depression is one of the factors behind teenage suicides. Teenagers are quite vulnerable when they are experiencing depression.

Depression is also a serious medical condition with many emotional, physical and behavioural symptoms. It leads teenagers to focus on their mistakes, failures and disappointments in their lives.

Such bad thoughts convince them there is no way out of their emotional and physical problems and that suicide is the only solution for them.

The best way to deal with these problems is to confide in someone we trust, such as friends, family and so on. Friends play a vital part in our lives. We can share our emotional and physical problems with them. They are willing to help us.

A good friend will always love, care for and support us no matter what. Their love and care have no bounds. We often hear people say, “A friend in need is a friend indeed.” Though this may sound like a cliché to some, there is much truth in these simple words. A good friend will help us to get over our difficulties.

Fortunately, depression is treatable with

 medication and/ or counselling. It can be managed with the right kind of help. If you feel suicidal or know someone who is, you should consider it an emergency and take quick and appropriate action.

Religious groups and community organisations can also be called upon to lend a helping hand. There are also suicide hotlines such as The Befrienders and National Suicide Prevention Lifeline that provide anonymous assistance.

Suicide is not the way to get rid of problems. Teenage suicide can be prevented. Let us hope that the tragedy that happened last year will not recur.
