Relationship issues

While there’s no single reason for teen suicide, the emotional pain associated with a breakup can be so severe that young people turn to self-harm. And these issues aren’t exclusive to romantic relationships. Problems with parents and friends can cause just as much stress and pain for a young person.

If you or someone you know is struggling to cope with a difficult relationship, find local counseling and support resources. You are not alone. Stark County is filled with allies who can help you navigate relationship issues while maintaining your mental health, self-esteem and overall well-being.
