like adults, the adolescents try to kill themselves in many ways, including hanging themselves, jumping off the building (into the sea), deliberate car-crashing, and slitting the wrists. But usually when such incidents happen, none of their family, friends and teachers can detect any signs in advance. Indeed, we cognitively harbor some mistaken information or unreflecting ways of thinking (myth), and ignore the clues that imply adolescent suicide; all these may result in influences on the right timing to deal with the problem. This paper sorts out, from documents, various myths about adolescent suicide and suicide prevention, for example, the assumptions that children don't kill themselves, that those who commit suicide have mental illness, and that suicide is genetic. Besides, we point out the reasons why people believe in those myths, clarify the facts behind the myths, explore the physical and psychological factors of adolescent suicide, so as to make those devoted to suicide prevention look at their depressed can be cheered up and the suicide-attempting adolescents can find out the ways to live.
