According to the BBC on June 11, a new study in the United States** shows that suicide rates have been on the rise nationwide since 1999. The release comes at a time when New York designer Kate Spey and celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain committed suicide, so the issue is in the spotlight.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than half of all states in the United States have seen an increase in suicide rates over the past 17 years. The overall national increase is about 25 per cent. That means about 16 out of every 100,000 Americans will commit suicide.
In 2016 alone, nearly 10,000 Americans took their own lives.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide rates have increased across all populations, regardless of gender, age, race and ethnicity.
Dr. Deborah Stone, chief researcher at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said the center has been tracking rising suicide rates for some time.
"Because suicide rates are known to be on the rise, we wanted to investigate suicide rates in each state and what factors are influencing them," Dr. Stone said.
Twenty-five states saw suicide rates increase by more than 30 percent – a new finding for us. ”
Almost all of these 25 states are located in the western and Midwestern regions of the United States.
Why are suicide rates on the rise?
Dr. Stone said that while individual factors do not contribute to suicide, intimacy and financial problems are often the number one contributor to suicide in Americans.
She also noted that suicide rates in some western U.S. states are at record highs, which may be related to the lack of local urbanization.
She explained that some of the more rural states are still in the recovery phase of the recession. Locals tend to be more isolated and unable to be properly cared for. In addition, there are more opioid users in these areas.
Professor Julie Carrel, president of the American Medical Association, noted that the well-developed report could partly explain the rise in suicide rates, but she also pointed to the lack of adequate funding for mental health research and prevention**.
As of 2018, only 10 states in the U.S. mandated health professionals to be trained in suicide prevention.
Professor Karel also raised another related but often overlooked public health issue – **.
In fact, according to the CDC, suicides account for two-thirds of gun deaths in the United States.
Is there a link between suicide and psychosis?
Research from the Centers for Disease Control found that 54% of Americans who die by suicide have no known mental health disorder.
Dr. Jerry Reed of the American Coalition for Action on Suicide Prevention said that while "there is certainly a link between severe mental illness and suicidal behavior," experts have found that it's not just a mental health challenge.
Professor Karel also noted that many people diagnosed with mental illness have never considered suicide.
However, she added that the available data may not be sufficient to reflect the true state of mental illness in the United States.

The main reason why the divorce rate is so high today may be because many people are very cautious about their love life, if there is a conflict between the two parties, the material is not the same, they will choose to divorce, the truth of these marriages is that there is no tolerance and understanding between each other, and they are very impatient with each other, and they may also be forced by their parents to choose to get married.
Because people are particularly sloppy when they get married, this will lead to an increase in the divorce rate; There is no affection between two people, and they often quarrel or like someone else in their marriage, so they will choose to divorce their wives.

Rural areas are a blind spot of national economic development, the city lights are bright, high-rise buildings, a prosperous, but many rural areas are still broken bricks and tiles, people can only rely on the ground to eat, some people have never read in their lives, some people have never been out of this village in their lives, the economy is poor, the education is poor, the living standard is poor, many children want to go out by reading, but the family is poor, may not even be able to enter the school door, let alone those places where there is no school.
