I talked about that just the other day upon hearing the news of a 17 year-old girl's suicide. The person I was talking to claimed that adolescents always seem to be dramatic and overreact because of small problems and some end up taking their lives without thinking it through. I on the other hand disagree and believe there's an inherent anguish to those individuals that cannot be soothed in any way they can think of except ending it all. That would obviously end the pain they feel.
As for the ones who are always being dramatic, if you take notice, they usually go in the direction of "Oh, I want to die!" "I want to die" is another way of saying "I want my problems to go away". Wanting to die, or being angry that you were born don't imply in or mean the same as wanting to kill yourself.
