The focus of proposed study is to study the relationship between depression, hopelessness and suicidal ideation among adolescents.  It is significant for assessing the possible causes of suicidal ideation. Findings of this study will improve the knowledge of not just adolescents but the general public on suicidal ideation so that they stand a better chance to manage it. The findings will also add to the existing body of knowledge. It will help the adolescents in managing the suicidal thoughts. This will further help in providing better mental health to adolescents. If the relationship between these three is understood, then new strategies can be developed to improve it.
