Prevention of suicide in adolescence  According to studies conducted by the CDC (which means in Spanish, Centros para la prevención y el control de enfermedades) suicide is the third leading cause of death among 15-24 year olds. It is a risk factor in the presence of suicidal thoughts, to present firearms in the home, such as pistols, because in the case of the United States, 60% end their lives using weapons. Another risk is access to medicines, either because they are found in the home or because they are easily accessible or sold illegally without a prescription, since this creates the possibility that the young person suffers from an overdose.

My favourite piece of technology

My favourite piece of technology is the cell phone. The first one I had was when I was around 12 years old, I remember it was pink and you could watch tv on it. Throughout my life I have had approximately 6 cell phones and I love it, I use it to take pictures, to listen to music, to communicate with family and friends, to entertain myself, among others, since it is a very versatile device. I use the cell phone every day and I like it because it is practical, it can be moved easily and you can access a lot of things on it. I think my life without him would be a bit complicated because I spend most of the day with him, but I think that with time maybe I could get used to it.

Why did you choose this career/study programme?

 When I was a child, I used to dream of being a veterinary. However, when I grew up I not longer wanted to be, because I could not bear to see the suffering that animals had and I did not want to perform operations on them for fear of hurting them. When I applied to university my only option was psychology, but in high school, I thought about studying medical technology. But I decided on psychology because my intention was to be able to help the well-being of people. I also had a good score on my history test, which made it easier for me to enter the university I wanted. So far I have had a good university experience, despite the fact that since it is my first year I still do not know the university due to the pandemic. The best thing about my experience has been the friends that I have found in this process. In the future I would like to work in a foundation that helps children with cancer or some type of disease that deteriorates their lives.
