The suicide in:"The freedom writers diary"

This is a book about students diaries in California at Wilson High School in Long Beach. They speak about their life, their problems. The teacher, Ms. Gruwell, change them. They begin better.
I'm going to speak about suicide. In the United-States, the number of suicides is 30 622 in 2001, one suicide each 18 minutes. In Switzerland, there are 1300 suicides for year, four suicides a day. The majority of the suicides are about teenagers.
I've choosen the diary 58 in page 120. This passage is about suicide. There is someone who compare a book about Hodlens friends suicide with a moment in his life. The analyse of the passage: In the class, they are reading the catcher in the Rey. Holden Caufield speaks about his friends suicide. He aws upset about his friends death. Before, this student didn't think about the consequences or the effect that this illness would have on anyone. For two years, the student has been tormented by the suicide. When he was four, his mother was diagnosed as clinically depressed because of a chemical imbalance. In this clinic, she had medical attention and she was cured thanks to a grug treatment who called Amitriptylin. This illness has tourmented all the family. He thinks always about suicide. This illness takes control of him. One day, he and his mother had a huge argument. He get in the kitchen and has attempt to commict suicide.
We can relate this passage to the movie:" A little sunshine". In this film, the Oncle Frank is depressed and has attempt to commict suicide, because his boyfriend left him and he was fired.
I think that it was interesting to know their lives. The number of suicides are very scaries.
