Do u think male suicide isnt as high as people say it is? Most have cars,jobs and kids. Is male suicide fake news?

Men are less likely to seek out mental health then women are it is not fake news.

You really do write the most ignorant questions here. Sorry. Had to be said.

As someone who lost a son to suicide I do not believe it is fake news. Young men are not well served in modern urban society.

You probably don't see as many depressed guys because depressed people don't make themselves seen very much. They often stay inside, alone, and don't typically make a huge impression when they're out and about.

No offensive - do you think before posting your questions or are you seeking attention

https://afsp.org/about-suicide/suicide-statistics/
is the official website of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

This is from their site:

—Each year 44,965 Americans die by suicide;
—For every "succesful" suicide there 25 attempts;
—Men die by suicide 3.53x more often than women.
—On average, there are 123 suicides per day.
—White males accounted for 7 of 10 suicides in 2016.
—Firearms account for 51% of all suicides in 2016.
—The rate of suicide is highest in middle age — white men in particular.

There are so many generalizations there that I'm not going to touch this one.

Harlots and booze?..lol.. are you SWing from the local tavern?😦

in the UK around 75% of all suicides are male a figure which has been fairly consistent for the last 30 years. It is also the biggest single cause of death for men under 45. I can't say that I have seen any news reports recently about male suicide rates but it has been an ongoing social problem for many years.

Nah it's real. You're just seeing people that are successful.
The difference is the male suicide rate of people who actually go through with it is higher, we're more aggressive even if it's towards ourselves.

With all the chemicals we are exposed to that mess up your brain add to that the sickness of society as a whole led by the media and government, it's not surprising.

You don't have to LOOK depressed. I know of someone who was apparently always joking and seemed happy but commited suicide. People can put on a front. I don't think it's fake news

It's painfully real,suicide doesn't choose race or gender.

I think they fake their feelings

In fact the suicide rate is highest among white male middle class men in first world countries. It's a surprising fact.

I really can’t see women leading the suicide rates.. you don’t have to win everything fembots..

male here. can confirm: real. at least one of my friends (or friends of friends) has attempted, or successfully committed, suicide every year since my adolescence.
