This paper focuses on the importance of mental health and how it's been sadly ignored by the society. It also intends to examine on how the depression and suicidal thoughts are not built within a day or just with substantial occurrences, but even the little incidents and events which one may consider as trivial, might have huge impact in the mental health of a person. Further, it might become the last straw for them to commit suicide. This paper is a brief analysis of the novel 13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher. The objective of this paper is to explore the minds of the people under depression with reference to psychoanalysis, specifically with the teenagers. It is the age where they are prone to be more fragile when it comes to instances related to feelings and emotions. Their actions most of the time follows their sensitive mind, because of which they tend to breakdown easily, very often. Most of them do not open up to the elders to hide their vulnerable side, even if they do, not everyone gets their emotions validated. The protagonist of this novel 13 Reasons Why is such a victim to the depression.
