Common warning signs for suicide include:

• Making suicidal statements.

• Being preoccupied with death in conversation, writing, or drawing.

• Giving away belongings.

• Withdrawing from friends and family.

• Having aggressive or hostile behavior.

It is extremely important that you take all threats of suicide seriously and seek immediate treatment for your child or teenager. If you are a child or teen and have these feelings, talk with your parents, an adult friend, or your doctor right away to get some help.
