Suicide Screening

Here are some questions I would ask teenagers to help predict who might be at a high risk of suicide:

Do you feel important to anyone?

Do you feel understood by anyone?

Cared about by anyone?

Listened to by anyone?

Emotionally supported by anyone?

Understood by anyone?

If the answers to these questions are no, I believe the risk of sucide will be high.
