Overview
The prevalence of suicidal ideation is approximately 18490 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. Suicide is the third leading cause of death among persons aged 10-14, the second among persons aged 15-34 years, the fourth among persons aged 35-44 years, the fifth among persons aged 45-54 years, the eighth among person 55-64 years, and the seventeenth among persons 65 years and older. African Americans commit suicide at rates much lower than those for whites, but they do so when much younger and they have a narrow, age-defined window of vulnerability. Age-specific psycho-pathological processes and protective factors may define suicide risk for each demographic group. Women are more likely to have suicidal thoughts, but the majority of deaths by suicide are by men.The male to female ratio is approximately 4 to 1
