CDC: US suicide rates have climbed dramatically Suicide Rates Increase in Nearly All States
Francis Osborne | 13 June, 2018, 06:17

In 2016, the final year of the study, almost 45,000 people died of suicide. Middle-aged adults-ages 45 to 64-had the largest rate increase, according to the report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

FSU's Department of Psychology has established itself as one of the preeminent suicide-research programs in the country.

The CDC said suicides were rarely caused by any single issue. We are working diligently to prevent suicide. The movie star's death was initially ruled a suicide but later accounts have raised questions about that conclusion.

Suicide rates have risen between 1999 and 2006 in all USA states except Nevada, impacting women, men, children, and people of different ethnicity and race.

However, there was an increase found in all but one state: Nevada.

Montana experienced about 29 suicides for every 100,000 people - the highest in the nation - compared with about seven people out of every 100,000 in the District of Columbia - the lowest. In more than half of all deaths in 27 states, the individuals had no known mental health condition when they took their own life.

Suicide prevention largely focuses on addressing mental health treatment, the CDC found, suggesting that a wider variety of preventive measures could be taken.

"None of this is surprising information, which is not to trivialize its importance".

Dr. Steven H. Woolf, a Virginia Commonwealth University physician who has studied suicide in the US, says the trend of rising self-harm is now well established.

There are several resources available in our area for those struggling with thoughts of suicide or mental health.

Kaslow is particularly concerned about what's emerged with suicide among women.

But Anestis believes that it's important to not beat around the bush when it comes to guns and to talk about the importance of things like setting waiting periods for purchase, and storing guns locked and unloaded.

Local suicide awareness advocates say it's an ongoing conversation which needs more attention.

"Even though we need to do a really good job of supporting people who are already at risk of mental health issues, it goes beyond that".

The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention released a similar statement on Friday from its chief medical officer Dr. Christine Moutier.

"You may be thinking about it over time, but that moment when you actually make an attempt is a very short window", he explains. "And there's good research to support that".

Mental Illness is one major cause. These two figures had each seen significant success in their lives, bucking a common perception of suicide.
