"Im 15 years old and last April, my close friend Pia died of suicide. She was only 14 years old. I don't know why she did it and probably won't know what was going through her mind that night. ...I know that suicide is a bad thing and is restricted from my religion, but sometimes i have the urge to do the same thing as what Pia and your son did.  Pia wasn't never ever sad or mad.. always smiling and making people feel better ..she was the last person on my list that would ever even think about committing suicide. But as for me, im not the same as her. I have many friends, i play varsity golf, and i get good grades.  My parents are the best.  It's just that sometimes i want to release all that pressure and depression that i face everyday.  At school, there is many problems and obstacles you face, not just academics but enemies, guy/girl problems, and other stuff.  I know that i am young and i have a life ahead of me, but the pain never seems to get out of me and i can't stand it; it hurts my heart... LITERALLY.  ...All these emotions go through my mind and i end up being depressed. What should i do?" ( It's hard
