LETTER: Delve deeply into the suicide problem on Peninsula

Published 1:30 am Sunday, November 19, 2017

Decades ago, a Peninsula Daily News reporter wrote a series of articles on the prevalence of teen suicides on the Olympic Peninsula. Apparently it is nothing new.

Perhaps mental health experts could explain this epidemic and give the public some insight.

Drugs?

Alcohol?

The weather?

Suicide is no laughing matter.

A better understanding of this sad occurrence might be helpful.
