All of these death by suicide statistics overlap with my demographics or experiences.
Studies reflect:
People with moderate or severe pain are 2-3 times more likely to die by suicide than people without pain.
People who are gay, lesbian or bisexual are 3-6 times more likely to die by suicide than their heterosexual counterparts
Those who attempt suicide are 30-40 times more likely to die by suicide than someone without a history of suicide attempts.
People with autism are 7 times more likely to die by suicide than the general population.
Female victims of childhood sexual abuse are 40 times more likely to die by suicide than the general population.
Suicide risk increases by 2.58 times in families with a history of completed suicide
Women with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are nearly seven times more likely than other women to die by suicide
In 2021, suicide was the second-leading cause of death for people ages 10-14 and 20-34
Attempt category
13% of women who are raped attempt suicide
The odds aren't really in my favor. But sometimes we beat the odds.
