6 Of 515 would-be jumpers who were stopped by police between 1937 and 1971, only 6 percent went on to kill themselves later in life. Richard Seiden, clinical psychologist: They were having an acute temporary crisis, they passed through it and, coming out the other side, they got on with their lives. From The Urge to End it All by Scott Anderson, NY Times, 7/6/08
7 Estimated that 1,100 college students die by suicide each year--around 3 completed suicides per day. Suicide is the second leading cause of death for college students LGBTQQ students were 25% more likely to consider suicide (Iowa College Climate Survey, 2011)
8 .80 % attempted in the last year 75% of those students who attempted were ambivalent 55% were using alcohol or drugs during the attempt *University of Texas 2011 Survey
9 Almost 50% of college students felt so depressed during a recent school year that it was difficult to function (ACHA) 72% of students said that embarrassment is a reason they would not seek help (Jed F.) 80% of students who planned or attempted suicide had a mother who was depressed genetic link
10 95% of college students who completed suicide were suffering from a major mental illness (eg. Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Substance Abuse Disorder) (AFSP, 2002)
11 I Ideation S Substance Abuse P Purposelessness A Anxiety T Trapped H Hopelessness W Withdrawal A Anger R Recklessness M Mood change
12 Direct Verbal Clues: I ve decided to kill myself. I wish I were dead. I m going to commit suicide. I m going to end it all. If (such and such) doesn t happen, I ll kill myself.
13 I m tired of life, I just can t go on. My family would be better off without me. Who cares if I m dead anyway. I just want out. I won t be around much longer. Pretty soon you won t have to worry about me.
14 Any previous suicide attempt Acquiring a gun or stockpiling pills Co-occurring depression, moodiness, hopelessness Putting personal affairs in order Giving away prized possessions Sudden interest or disinterest in religion Drug or alcohol abuse, or relapse after a period of recovery Unexplained anger, aggression and irritability

16 Irritable or depressed mood daily for two weeks Change in sleeping and eating patterns Loss of interest or pleasure in usual activities Decrease in sexual drive Fatigue or loss of energy Diminished ability to think or concentrate Thoughts of death or suicide, or wishing to be dead -DSM 5
17 Feeling ineffective to the degree that others are burdened is among the strongest sources of all for the desire for suicide. -Dr. Joiner s Theory
18 Our need to belong to valued groups and relationships is so powerful that, if frustrated or thwarted, serious negative health consequences follow including suicide. -Dr. Joiner s Theory
19 Those Who Desire Suicide Perceived Burdensomeness Thwarted Belongingness Those Who Are of Suicide Capable Serious Attempt or Death by Suicide
