Men are more "successful" at suicide, whereas women tend to "fail" more at suicide. Interestingly, the suicide attempts are often categorized as a call for help, as specifically stated by the attempters themselves. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/fullarticle/205075 https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/fullarticle/... > Of the attempters, 39.3% (3.5) endorsed the statement that they made a serious attempt, and it was only because of luck that they did not die; while 13.3% (2.1) endorsed the statement that they were serious, but knew the method was not foolproof; and the remaining 47.3% (3.9) endorsed the statement that their attempt was a cry for help, and they did not want to die. It makes you wonder, why the gender discrepancy? Is this cultural? Social? Are women simply better at asking for help than men? Are men simply more stubborn than women?
