[quote]As many as three quarters of a million young people in the UK may feel that they have nothing to live for, a study for the Prince's Trust charity claims.
The trust says almost a third of long-term unemployed young people have contemplated taking their own lives.
Urgent action must be taken to prevent the young jobless becoming the young hopeless, it says.
The government commented that it was doing "everything possible" to help young people find work.
Last month, figures from the Office for National Statistics showed the UK unemployment rate had fallen to its lowest level since 2009, with the number of people out of work falling by 99,000 to 2.39 million in the three months to October.[/quote]
I wouldn't consider suicide but I consider myself one of those youngsters (16-25), some people may have saw what I posted in Tartan 118's thread about it.
What do you think?

[quote]I never had a relationship so seeing people I went to school with having kids and such I just feel like I have failed as a man and a human being.
I have no job, no gf, no kids and I feel like I have gone no where since high school, it's incredibly depressing.[/quote]

I don't feel like this. I used to contemplate suicide when I had depression but I got over that and love my life now.
