Although, it does make wonder what the economic impact of suicide is ( quite aside from the human tragedy). Well, that was the Greek method. Men used more violent methods such as hanging and women softer methods such as medication overdose. There are a number of ways in which you can tackle suicidal thoughts: Tell your doctor or other sympathetic people. I remember hearing a statistic that males have a significantly better success rate when it comes to suicide attempts, because the preferred methods of suicide for males (weapons, jumping off things) had less opportunity for people to seek emergency treatment or be saved compared to females' preferred methods. Seriously affected by mental illness. Up to one in 10 people affected by mental illness kill themselves. More men than women completed suicide, more women than men attempted suicide. Since most people who attempt suicide do not succeed, I feel I would be cheating you if I didn't share what I know about what can happen if you try to kill yourself and fail to get the job done. So, I will keep my promise I know it is not enough just to warn people who want to kill themselves that, if they try, they may not succeed and some terrible unanticipated consequence may follow. A Houston study found that for 24 percent of suicide survivors, less than five minutes elapsed between their decision and the attempt. With medical intervention, counselling, social support and time, however, many of those who have attempted suicide, or who have seriously thought about killing themselves, will go on to live full, productive lives.
