✨ When it comes to su***de and su***de attempts there are rate differences depending on demographic characteristics such as age, gender, ethnicity and race. Nonetheless, su***de occurs in all demographic groups. ✨

💜 In the U.S., no complete count of su***de attempt data are available. The CDC gathers data from hospitals on non-fatal injuries from self-harm as well as survey data.

💜 In 2021, (the most recent year for which data are available), the rate of visits to the emergency departments for nonfatal self-harm injuries was approximately 148.2 per 100,000 people.

💜 Based on the 2022 National Survey of Drug Use and Mental Health it is estimated that 0.6% of the adults aged 18 or older made at least one su***de attempt. This translates to approximately 1.6 million adults. With regard to race and ethnicity, su***de attempts ranged from 1.5% among American Indian or Alaskan Native or Multiracial adults to 0.1 percent in Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander. The rate of attempts for Blacks was 0.9% and the rate for rate for Whites and Hispanic adults were 0.6%. The rate for Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander and Asian adults was 0.2%.

💜 Based on the most recent Youth Risk Behaviors Survey from 2021 (most recent results), 10.0% of youth in grades 9-12 reported that they had made at least one su***de attempt in the past 12 months. Female students attempted 1.86 times as often as male students (13% vs. 7%). American Indian or Alaska Native students reported the highest rate of attempt (16%) with white students at 9%. Approximately 3% of all students reported making a su***de attempt that required treatment by a doctor or nurse.

September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month. Honestly, I feel like it should be an every day awareness. I myself have tried to kill myself by overdose twice. I have also lost a family member to it. Mental health is so important, it’s ok to talk about it and ask for help. You matter even if you don’t always feel like it. *HUGS* Be kind to everyone you come across because you have no idea what struggles they face, if that’s what tips them over the edge, if that’s the last words you say to them and because being kind is the right thing to do. Check in with your loved ones. Check in with your coworkers. Check in with people you might not know that we’ll be but see a lot. Don’t ignore new behaviors. Being kind never killed anyone. The world could use A LOT more kindness.

💜 Did you know that Su***de is the 11th cause of leading death in the U.S.?

💜 Did you know in 2022, 49,476 Americans died by su***de?

💜 Did you know in 2022, there were an estimated
1.6M su***de attempts?

💜 Did you know in 2022, fi****ms accounted for 54.64% of all su***de deaths?

💜 Did you know in 2022, men died by su***de 3.85 times more than women?

💜 In 2022, rates were highest for adults ages 85+ years (23.02 per 100,000) and next highest for those 75 to 84 years (20.26 per 100,000). Compared with rates in 2021, the su***de rates increased for those age 35 and older and decreased for those age 34 and below. Youth below age 25 have had consistently lower su***de rates than middle-aged and older adults. In 2022, adolescents and young adults aged 15 to 24 rates declined from 15.15 per 100,000 to a su***de rate of 13.62 per 100,000.

💜 In 2022, fi****ms were the most common method of death by su***de, accounting for a little more than half (54.64%) of all su***de deaths. The next most common methods were suffocation (including hangings) at 24.75% and poisoning (including drug overdose) at 12.43%.
