WEDNESDAY, June 5, 2013 — Paris Jackson, daughter of legendary pop-singer Michael Jackson, was rushed to the hospital early Wednesday morning after an apparent suicide attempt. The 15-year-old allegedly had cuts on her wrists, according to her mother, Debbie Rowe, who told Entertainment Tonight that her daughter had “a lot going on.”

Ambulances responded to Paris Jackson’s home at 1:27 am, according to TMZ, which first broke the story, after a call came in about a possible overdose. However, paramedics instead found Paris Jackson with multiple cuts on her wrists.

"Paris is physically fine and is getting appropriate medical attention," Perry Sanders, attorney for Michael Jackson’s mother Katherine, told TMZ. "Being a sensitive 15 year old is difficult no matter who you are. It is especially difficult when you lose the person closest to you."

Here are some facts you should know about depression and suicide in teens:

Girls are at a higher risk of depression – Girls are diagnosed more often with depression, and have different symptoms than boys do. While boys will act out and appear more irritable, girls will become withdrawn, self-harm, or develop an eating disorder.
Teens who have a peer who commits suicide are at a higher risk themselves – In a study published late last month, researchers found that children between the ages of 12 and 17 who knew someone who committed suicide were at a five-times higher risk of having suicidal thoughts themselves.
Treatment helps, but isn’t a miracle cure – Even teens who are getting treated for depression are still at risk for suicide, according to a study published in January. Researchers found that one in 20 teens who attempts suicide are being treated for mental health issues.
Teens who are grateful are at a lower risk – Teens who offer more gratitude about things in their life tend to report more life satisfaction and are at lower risk of depression, according to a study published in August.

It’s unclear what led to Paris Jackson’s suicide attempt, and while her father’s death hurt her, it’s far too early to speculate, Sanders told the New York Daily News.

“She’s suffered with the loss of her father,” he said. “But we don’t know what she was exposed to that precipitated this.”

Oriental
	Something or someone hailing from the Orient. Absolutely NOT an offensive term, only considered so by the uptight, ultrasensitive PC crowd in America. In Europe, the term is widely used without any connotations of insult. Using "Asian" for a people within the continent of Asia is selfish and self-serving to undermine other non-Oriental people.
