In many cases they feel it is the only way out. In other words they could be feeling pressure from family or friends about school, their choices, anything really. And they do not want to disappoint anyone anymore. That is the most common cause. But it could also be caused from abuse, or childhood abuse. Another main reason would be because of a mental illness caused from anything, but especially others, like bullying or even peer pressure. There are many reasons, these were only the most common that I know of but it could be anything really so if someone is talking about suicide you should always let them know you are there for them so they know they are not alone in this rough time.
* One reason that could be part of the overall picture of a teen who attempts, or committs suicide is that adolescence is a time of great turmoil. Physically, the body is going through enormous changes such as puberty, the onset of menses in young girls, and hormonal shifts and changes that are both exhilerating, and confusing. An adolescent wants their freedom from their parents, and this occurs out in nature as well as in the human condition, but they are usually not "quite ready to fly away".
During this tumultuous period of time, impulsive actions are unfortunately the consequence of many teen related suicides, but many other unfortunate outcomes also- such as drunk driving, overdoses, breaking the law, and of course having something happen to the young person can occur as well. (rape, assault, etc) due (only in PART, as nobody deserves to be assaulted!) by unhealthy choices such as staying out past curfew, consuming too much alcohol which renders the teenager unable to make even the most basic healthy choice. This is a great subject because suicide awarness has FINALLY come out as a regular topic of conversation- and is no longer stigmatized to the degree that it used to be- and this has resulted in many teens getting the help and support they need far before they get to the deperation of feeling there is "no other choice".
Teenagers also notoriously are self involved, and rarely understand what the consequences of their actions will do to those who love them.
They see the ending of their life as "a good thing" because their self esteem is at a point where they feel they won't be missed-and they often rationalize that their loved ones will ultimately be "better off" with their dmise.
