Suicide is a huge problem in the United States, although not many people talk about it or understand the vastness of this problem. Depression, anxiety, and suicide plague teens of the United States, and of Georgia. It is important to educate people on the severity of this problem of suicide and depression so we can work toward a brighter future.
