In 2022, the United States experienced a disturbing increase in suicides, reaching a record high since 1941. According to provisional data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 50,000 individuals lost their lives to suicide, marking a significant mental health crisis. The estimated suicide rate stood at 14.3 deaths per 100,000 people, with the final count for the year expected to be even higher.
Men were disproportionately affected, constituting the majority of suicide cases. There were 39,255 suicides among males compared to 10,194 among females. Notably, while women generally have more suicidal thoughts, men are more likely to act on these thoughts. Among men, those over 75 faced the highest suicide rate, with 44 per 100,000 succumbing to mental health struggles. Dr. Yeates Conwell, a psychiatry professor, attributes this trend to men’s greater access to lethal means like firearms, a tendency to have fewer close relationships, and cultural stigmas around seeking help for depression.
The increase in suicides also reflects the long-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns, which disrupted social and economic stability. Jeffrey Leichter, a psychologist, pointed to the lasting effects of this disruption on mental health.
Encouragingly, the suicide rates for children aged 10 to 14 and youths aged 15 to 24 decreased by 18% and 9%, respectively, from 2021. However, there is a growing concern for women aged 25 to 34, who saw a significant increase in suicide rates. Dr. Katie Hurley from the Jed Foundation emphasized the need for more mental health support for this demographic, noting the unique challenges they face in today’s tumultuous world.
Overall, the data underscores the urgent need for enhanced mental health resources and support across various demographics, particularly for men and young women.
Looks like Biden/Obama are successful with their destruction
So right, Babsan. Biden has destroyed AMERICA. We will NEVER recover. It is over.
Biden has destroyed America and he is not done. We have to stop this madness and Make America Great Again
MAGA = Maggots Against Genuine Americans.
Lol! You wouldn’t know a a genuine American if it sat on your face, lollollollollollol
You are absolutely correct
4 years of Trump pushed them over the edge.
I SEE MORE MENTALLY CHALLENGED PEOPLE ON THIS SIDE. SO VERY SAD WHEN REAL AMERICANS DO NOT KNOW OUR HISTORY. BUT THEN MOST HATE THEIR OWN COUNTRY INSTEAD OF STANDING UP AGAINST COMMUNISM. NOW THAT WOULD TAKE CHARACTER TRUMP 2024 UNLESS WE WANT TO BECOME CHINA..
Biden should have assisted suicide, he is mentally a mess ,put him out ,he is a mushroom
And Trump is a lifelong criminal.
ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THIS ?? OR ARE YOU JUST FALLING FOR PROPAGANDA. STOP LISTENING TO ALL THIS CORRUPT LYING DEMS AND MEDIA WHO ARE BOUGHT AND PAYED FOR BY THE DEMOCRATS. WHO ARE DESTROYING THIS GREAT COUNTRY. ONLY ONE STANDING UP FOR THE USA IS TRUMP.
Who has never been convicted of anything, whereas we all know for a fact, Biden is rapist, pedophile, took millions from China, Ukraine and a bunch of other countries. I cannot fathom why anyone would buy Biden, a known plagiarist and according to military experts on body language he is a rapist, (Tara Read) when Biden had interview with Tara and a female interviewer, the 6 military experts watched and all 6 stated Biden lied, he did rape Tara, and even the interviewer felt the same! Biden and Obie have done nothing good for this country, they divided the country made everything racist, held million dollar parties while America was in a crippling recession, which Obie did NOTHING TO HELP. THEY BOTH GAVE MONEY TO TERRORISTS, WHICH TO ME MAKES THEM TRAITORS TO USA.
To Donna, “never say never”! Keep up the fight!
Well “DUH!” And you people have the nerve to call Trump supporters and Americans ignorant! Obsessed! Cultish! Have you seen the acrobatics of the Whitehouse Press Secretary KJP in defending this highly public failure occupying Americas Whitehouse?? They cover each others crimes, sins and lies and screw the American taxpayers daily with no shame!!
I totally agree without question.
You are a prime example. Trump loves the uneducated.
TRUMP CAN SPEAK OFF THE CUFF NOT LIKE DEMENTED BIDEN, WHO IS UNABLE TO SPEAK COHERENT OR ONE SENTENCE. BIDEN NEEDS A CHEAT SHEET WITH PHOTOS. PLUS HE HAS ACCOMPLISHED NOTHING IN 50 YEARS LIVING OFF THE TAX PAYERS MONEY, WHAT A THUG LIKE ALL THE DEMOCRATS WHO WANT A ONE PARTY GOVERNMENT, COMMUNISM AND SOCIALISM. TRUMP KEPT US OUT OF WARS, HE NEVER TOOK HIS PAY, HE DID MORE FOR OUR COUNTRY THEN ALL PREVIOUS PRESIDENTS, JUST LOOK AT ALL THE DRAG QUEENS IN OUR MILITARY.BIDEN MADE OUR MILITARY WEAK, PLUS GAVE US SICK GENDER IDEOLOGY, BIDEN DESTROYED OUR COUNTRY FROM WITHIN.

HE DID FOR OUR VETERANS. HE MADE OUR MILITARY STRONG. BIDEN RUINED OUR MILITARY, MADE IT WEAK WITH HIS WOKE CRAP AND DRAG QUEENS. UNDER TRUMP WE DID NOT HAVE GENDER IDEOLOGY. OBAMA IS THE CULPRIT OF THIS AND BIDEN ENFORCED THIS. BIDEN IS SENILE AND UNFIT , JUST LIKE OBAMA WAS A FAILURE, BOTH PEAS OF THE SAME POT. THEY CALL TRUMP A DICTATOR, NOT KNOWING WHAT A DICTATOR REALLY IS. I WISH AMERICANS WOULD LEARN HISTORY, INSTEAD OF SPEWING HATE AND TALKING USELESS SHIT. OBAMA AND BIDEN HATE OUR COUNTRY AND WHITE PEOPLE. THEIR GOAL IS TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY AND FOOLS STAND WITH THEM. GOOD LUCK WHEN YOU HAVE COMMUNISM AND SOCIALISM, BUT UN EDUCATED FOOLS THINK THIS IS GREAT. TRUMP 2024 THE ONLY ONE WITH BACKBONE AND INTEGRITY. LOVE FOR THE USA, IN OUR COUNTRY YOUNG PEOPLE ARE BRAIN DEAD , NEVER HAD TO DO WITHOUT A THING. BUT SOON THEY WILL BE CRYING.

The level of humanity that takes one’s life is total unacceptable. Why is this an issue with many these days? Yes, the environment has a lot to do with it, but the lack of GOD within the heart of those who commit such acts, this is the main point that needs to be noted. For those who feel lost and hopeless, must understand that what at this point in their life looks desperate, it is an illusion that hides the restoration ahead. Change your choice process, make decisions that improve one’s life and bring your mind to a place that embraces the love of GOD. Look around you, sin has changed the world, a world that is so beautiful inspite of it. You have choices and you have better days ahead inspite of the darkness within. Grab the hand of the LORD and walk with HIM in that time that HE has given to all of us. Use it well for good, not for those things that are not and which attempt to destroy that Love ❤️ which is there just for the asking. Embrace his gift and see things that are uplifting for a better future for all.
A suicide victim is first a victim of mental, emotional, and/or physical abuse beyond his/her control and without trustworthy support and affirmation from anyone outside that abuse. Some claim that faith in God can solve that dilemma, and sometimes that’s true. But not always. There are tangible realities such as drugs, tragic personal events, betrayals, loss of close human relations, war, desecration of all things beautiful and meaningful (including faith in God), overwhelming chaos of thoughts, feelings, and directions, incurable medical and psychiatric conditions such as Altzheimers. Currently we live in a very fractured society, forcing us all to make decisions that too often allow no good or kind choices, resulting in lesser evils that chip away at our humanity. When too much time passes in such a situation, we may be compelled to admit that suicide is our only viable option. Suicide is a shocking and irretractable act, but sometimes it may be the only redeemable act, far better than choosing any “lesser” evil. Whatever the case, since the beginning of time it has been an act of relief for the direct victim, and it forces bystanders to acknowledge and reckon with the pain that lurks in us all. Therefore we must treat it thoughtfully and kindly, and make every effort in our own lives to respect the lives of others. Every life faces some kind of death. Acknowledging that reality may well lessen our struggle and grant us peace with ourselves.
The Biden administration are purposely trying to destroy the country because no president can be this stupid to do the things he has done
You just described Trump.
YOU ARE ONE OF MANY FOOLS. YOU HAD TO BE BLIND NOT TO SEE BIDENS DESTRUCTION TO THE USA. IT IS BIDENS AND OBAMAS GOAL TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY, THEY BOTH HATE AMERICA AND WHITE PEOPLE. VERY SAD WHEN WE HAVE A INSTALLED PRESIDENT WHO HAS THE WORST ADMINISTRATION, WHO GIVES US NOTHING BUT HATE, 12 MILLION ILLEGAL CRIMINALS. LIVING OF OUR TAX DOLLARS . WAKE UP FOOL AND LEARN TO BE A PATRIOT FOR YOUR COUNTRY. NOT A TRAITOR.WHERE YOU EVER IN THE SERVICE??? OF COURSE NOT.
The Country has gone to the shitter, since Biden was put into The White House. The White House, I’m surprised they haven’t changed the color due to racial wokeness idiology? That alone would increase the suicide rate even higher! But Biden isn’t finished screwing up this land yet, those numbers may increase? If they don’t, The Oval Office and CDC will demand more Covid shots and boosters to aide along. Those crossing Our borders don’t require vaccinations. Wonder why that is?
It was millions of Republicans that put Biden in the Whitehouse. They were too smart to fall for Don the Con a second time around. Only his uneducated minions like you still support him.
POOR FOOL. IT WAS THE CORRUPT DEMOCRATS THAT PUT BIDEN IN, KNOWING HE IS MENTALLY UNSTABLE, THEY NEEDED A PUPPET TO DO THEIR BIDDING. BIDEN CANT EVEN REMEMBER HIS NAME. NEEDS ASSISTENCE TO WALK ON AND OF THE PODIUM. JUST A LOST MORON. YOU MUST LOVE COMMUNISM TO STAND FOR THE LIKES OF HIM.YOU ARE BRAINWASHED, YOU NEED TO LISTEN AND LEARN.
Always remember the many Americans that listened to Trump and didn’t get vaccinated. They all died!
NOT THE UN -VACCINATED. WE WHERE SMARTER THEN THE REST, STOP BLAMING PRESIDENT TRUMP FOR BIDENS FAILURES LOOK AT AFGHANISTAN. LOOK AT OUR HOMELESS DRUG ADDICTS. LOOK AT OUR SCHOOLS, OUR OPEN BORDERS. YOU MUST BE BLIND TO THE TRUTH.
Lollollollollollol, just like all the many that got vaccinated and died.
Biden and his administration will go down as the biggest flop and the ones that took America down. What a legacy. Our once beautiful free country has been infiltrated by leftist/communist/unamerican people. We are being unindated by illegal immigrants some of whom would like nothing better than to destroy our country. And the Biden/Obama administration are celebrating.
And Trump is and will always be known as the biggest criminal to ever set foot in the Whitehouse.
NOT IN OUR COUNTRY. YOU LISTEN TO THE MEDIA AND TALK TREASON. SHAME ON YOU. STAND UP FOR AMERICA. YOU NEVER LIVED UNDER HITLER. YOU WOULD SEE NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BIDEN AND HITLER. LEARN HISTORY.
WE FEEL SORRY FOR YOU . BUT THERE IS NO HELP FOR STUPID.
The 9 warnings of Mary at Fatima(Portugal). “Many nations will be annihilated. Russia will be the means of punishment for the entire world. Fire will fall from the sky. No one will be spared. The living will envy the dead. It will be worse than The Flood. The entire world will become communist. The oceans will cover whole areas of the earth. From one moment to the next millions of people will perish.” The Akita, Japan apparitions in the 70’s confirm the future events. The ONE solution is the Consecration of Russia by the pope to The Immaculate Heart of Mary, in union with ALL the Catholic bishops in the world, at the same point in time, in a solemn and worthy Consecration. It has never been done. Questions will be resolved at The Fatima Center, USA Incorporated 800-263-8160.
