  1. What if you look up how the family and or friends react after they have lost someone to suicide? Do they advocate for suicide prevention?

  2. For my job I recently had to go to a suicide prevention training program. There were a lot of good statistics there, well not good persay but convincing statisitics there, and it was something like men try to commit suicide 4 times as much as women and they follow through with it more than women. I would also look at the statistics of suicide during wartime becuase it has been proven that the stress of wars has made suicide rate skyrocket and when the wars are over, the rates go back down.
