From the World Health Organization: Suicide remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, according to WHO’s latest estimates, published today in “Suicide worldwide in 2019”. Every year, more people die as a result of suicide than HIV, malaria or breast cancer ̶ or war and homicide. In 2019, more than 700 000 people died by suicide: one in every 100 deaths, prompting WHO to produce new guidance to help countries improve suicide prevention and care.
Suicide affects youth as well as adults. People who attempt suicide and survive still experience serious injuries; sometimes these injuries have long-term effects on their health. They may also experience a lasting depression. Suicide and suicide attempts also affect the health and well-being of friends, loved ones, co-workers, and the community. Many people feel helpless when a loved one dies or attempts suicide. What can we do to help prevent suicide by forging healthy relationships?
