http://t.co/KT9wKey For young people - part of the issue is that they live emotionally in the present. Youth are not generally emotionally equipped nor developed maturity wise to peer into the future and realize "this will pass".
I believe their are as many reasons as there are people in the world for taking ones life. Every individual deals with different stressors and handles them differently due to personality differences as well.

The Top 5 Diversity Stories of 2010
What stories had the biggest impact on diversity in education last year? We came up with our own list. See if it matches yours.
GLOBAL FLOODS: On Sunday, Pope Benedict XVI offered
prayers for the international victims of catastrophic flooding. Australia is facing a "disaster of
biblical proportions" after weeks of rain. "The extent of flooding being experienced by Queensland
is unprecedented and requires a national and united response," Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard said. "Dozens of towns have been isolated or partially submerged” by Australia's extraordinary floods, which have
killed at least 20 people and are now "
flushing toxic, pesticide-laden sediment into the Great Barrier Reef, and could threaten fragile corals and marine life in the world’s largest living organism." The disaster "is costing Australia at least
$3 billion in lost farming and coal exports." Elsewhere, extraordinary rains "have triggered widespread floods and mudslides" in
Sri Lanka, killing 43 people and affecting millions more, prompting the United Nation to make a
$51 million appeal for help. With heavy rains across southern Africa, "
over 50 people have died in floods in South Africa and neighbouring Mozambique," and "Zimbabwean authorities have issued
flood warnings for points in the south and west of the country." Continuous rains in the Philippines have killed at least
56 people and left hundreds of thousands of people "
reeling." Extreme rains have caused “the worst natural disaster to hit
Brazil in four decades," where the "death toll from flooding and mudslides near Rio de Janeiro" could approach
1,000 victims. "
Heavy snow and rain in the U.S. Midwest" likely means record springtime floods. “
Changes in Iowa’s weather patterns, landscape, cities and farms have rendered some of the state’s most trusted flood prevention safeguards outmoded and inadequate,” a review by The Des Moines Register shows. "This is no longer something that’s theory or conjecture or something that comes out of computer models," Dr. Richard Somerville, the Nobel-winning scientist who led the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report on the state of climate science in 2007, explained to ABC News. "We’re observing the climate changing. It’s real. It’s happening. It’s
scientific fact."
The Associated Press reports that the GOP's campaign promise of cutting $100 billion from the federal budget and returning to 2008 levels of spending could mean huge cuts in
programs that serve millions of Americans. Included among the cuts would be
Pell Grants being cut back by more than
$1,000 per student and a 16 percent cut to the
FBI budget.

And finally:
Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) invented a drinking game yesterday for observers of congressional Republicans' attempts to repeal President Obama's
health care law: "
you take a shot every time a Republican lies ." Speaking on the house floor, Weiner made sure to encourage people to "get a designated driver," as they would have to
take a lot of shots.
