Male depression and suicide
Although women attempt suicide more often than men do, men are more likely to complete suicide. That's because men:
- Use methods that are more likely to cause death, such as guns.
- May act more suddenly in the moment on thoughts about suicide.
- Show fewer warning signs, such as talking about suicide.
- Are more likely to turn to drugs and alcohol to cope, which increases the risk of suicide.
