Bullying and Suicide

According to my research, and personal experience, bullying affects a person in a very negative way, most of the time leading us to feel unworthy of being alive.
Bullying is aggressive behavior repeated over time, and it includes threats, spreading rumors, attacking someone physically or emotionally, or even excluding someone purposely. Bullying can have serious and lasting effects negatively affecting the mental health and overall well-being of the youths involved, some effects being depression, anxiety, involvement in sexual or physical abuse, substance abuse, poor social functioning, and poor school performances including lower GPA averages, standardized test scores, and poor attendance. Bullying, along with the negative effects it includes, can also cause youths to have suicidal tendencies and thoughts.
Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people, resulting in about 4,400 deaths per year, according to the CDC. For every suicide among young people, there are at least 100 suicide attempts. Over 14% of high school students have considered suicide, and almost 7% have attempted it. Ten to fourteen old girls may be at even higher risk for suicide, according to a study done in Britain.
