ABSTRACT
Attempted suicide is a serious problem in youth right now, the curiosity and
influence manipulating them psychologically is a reason for them to perform it. Still, this
circumstance statistically arises over the years especially until now. The risky part of it is
how the social media involved in that situation and how it helps the problem even more
dangerous. In this matter, the researchers aimed to know if social media truly contribute
for a youth to attempt suicide by studying their cases or experiences and have an in-depth
understanding of each data or information gathered. The researchers conducted
qualitative research along with case study method and to further analyze through an
interview and by providing semi-structured questions for the guidance counselors of Dr.
Yanga Colleges Inc., a private school and Taal National Highschool, a public school, as
the research locale. The research informants were the guidance counselors of the research
locale. Preparing semi-structured interview, researchers interviewed of a total of four
guidance counselors to gathered different cases and analyzed data substantially. Aside
from that, validation of data was made between researchers and participants. Reviewing
and re-reading of transcribed interviews from the audio output after the interview. The
researchers generate and revealed three themes of how social media affects suicide
attempts to youth. The themes include Social Media’s Unaware Impact to the youth
which shows the social media dominates and influences to youth and have involvement
in various cases of attempted suicide. Chat Influence the youth represents the effective
feature of social media, chat or communication through online can harm youth by
influence or trigger suicidal thoughts. Lastly, Descriptive Excerpts of other people which
a normal Facebook status, photos or videos can elicit negative thinking and lead to
attempt suicide. Based on the findings it is concluded that youth is hardly dealing with
suicidal thoughts and using social media frequently won’t help but push them instead to
attempt suicide. As for youth, not only social media can express their feeling with but the
families, friends and loved ones that they’re known them.

Today the most powerful medium in the world is social media. Social
media allows people to share information, express themselves, share what interest
them and other forms of expression via virtual communities. It is not surprising
that social media got the interest of the youth today. In just one click, other
people would know about your life. Most youth use social media in their everyday
There are 2,053 suicide cases that have been recorded in the Philippines
and most of them are from ages 20-24. 279 of them are males and 63 were

social media affects our daily living from Friendster to today's G mail, Twitter,
Instagram, and Facebook. As of September 30, 2016 there are 1.79 billion

Over the last decade, it has become apparent that social media may act as
a vehicle for youth to communicate signs and symptoms of mental health distress,
The media has covered numerous cases of youth who committed suicide
and communicated their mental distress through social media such as Facebook,
For example, a recent Canadian case was that of Amanda Todd, a 15 year
old who communicated her depression and suicide ideation on YouTube over
several months before taking her own life. (National Post, 2012)

Thus, social media have become a key expressive tool for youth where
they may express signs and symptoms of depression and suicidal ideation.

One of her client, took a lot of medicine to overdose oneself, some slashed their
own wrists, they even thought of drinking the poisonous cleaning product, Zonrox.
She handled a lot of cases with different styles of killing oneself and
different reasons why they did it. One of her clients attempted suicide by
drinking a bunch of medicines, however, her client vomited the medicines after
she took them. Another one was a student who slashed her own wrist. Another
one was having a thought of drinking a poisonous cleaning product. She believed
that the most common reason for these act was because of social media. People
are reading unnecessary posts, watching live videos from Facebook, encouraging
them to kill themselves because of what they have been through. She also
mentioned that social media is now being used to kill oneself. For example, the

social media which almost everyone uses. But it can be a harm to manipulate
suicidal thoughts.
DR. YANGA’S COLLEGES, INC. 35
Youth nowadays do not always think about what they are saying especially
in social media and since most of the social interaction made from Facebook are
from chat rooms, it makes it more risky to them. It can trigger negative thinking
and any negative thoughts that affects emotional understanding can lead to suicidal
thoughts.
This theme shows how social media dictate to youth by the excerpts of
other people. In social media, you can share media produced like videos, photos
or opposed reaction. Youth can be sensitive and this kind of response can
provoke them to attempt suicide. Aside from that, you can find through their
post, pictures or shares the signs that they’re having suicidal thoughts.
At the start of the study, the researchers formulated two assumptions for
