Youth suicide rates spike over last decade

Youth suicide rates have risen sharply in the last decade, according to an alarming new report from the CDC.

The study found that suicides among Americans ages 10-24 went up 56% from 2007 to 2017, and has become the second-leading cause of death among young people.

No one knows exactly what’s causing the jump, but some experts speculate that the rise of social media and online bullying are a factor.
