Not to be that guy. But what exactly are the rates for teenage boys? Last I had looked. They were statistically more likely to die of suicide then girls.
Because while Women and Girls will statistically make more attempts. Men and Boys are usually more successful because they typically choose far more lethal options.
Suicide especially in young people is tragic. But the statistics of only Women and Girls typically feature prominently in the mainstream discussion of suicide. With the statistics of men and boys usually being an afterthought if they’re mentioned at all.
