I chose American Foundation for Suicide Prevention because it is a really interesting topic about how to help people to stop from committing suicide. This topic will help me know and the facts about how many people die each year and the ages in which suicide is most common. The data also divides up by sex and state statistics. Suicide is really common especially in teenagers, shows have demonstrated that.
The resources I found describe all the data that investigators have gotten from different states and also depending the ages. They have found that 90 percent of the people who die have psychiatric diseases that can be treated, also when people have alcohol or drug abuse it is more likely that they will commit suicide because depression gets in and makes the problem worse. Males are more likely to commit suicide than females, it is three to five more times likely.
We can always help people stop from killing themselves by looking for the signs. Some of the signs there are when they get away from the people they hang out with, they have sleeping problems, and they often say things about wanting to die. They also get really angry for anything with anyone. As soon as we noticed this, we can take that person for a treatment to a psyciatric.
