Cowell reveals suicidal teenage years

'American Idol' judge Simon Cowell has spoken about his teenage years, saying that he felt suicidal when he was younger.
The star told Parade that he hated school and feared that his life would not get better.
He said: "I was always bored. I didn't like the rules and I didn't like discipline."
"So when someone said to me, 'These are the best days of your life', I actually thought about jumping off a bridge."
"I was like, 'If it gets any worse than this I'm done', because I hated school and I hated my life."
