self image and how it effects and relates to teenage stress and teen suicide.). oral written on the topic of teen suicide that makes reference to the book psycho cybernetics by maxwell malts (focusing on self image and how it effects and relates to teenage stress and teen suicide.). Using the following points as a general guidline i need an oral opinion piece written thats around 800 words in total. • Teenage stress is something that all teens face at different times whether through family or relationship issues, school or schoolwork pressures, or something else. There are healthy ways to teach a teen to cope with stress including exercise, finding someone to talk to, plenty of sleep, and the support of family and friends. • There is nothing more tragic than seeing a person close to you feeling as if their life is worthless and they have no other option than to end their own life. • A minimum of 5 people in this room will experience depression in their life time. • More than one in eight Australians has thought about taking his or her own life, 4 per cent have made suicide plans and 3.3 per cent have attempted suicide during their lifetime. The social and financial costs of suicide are substantial. The human cost is incalculable.
