The Myth of Holiday Suicides: CDC Reports that the Suicide Rate is Lowest in December
More than 48,000 individuals took their own lives in 2018 and over 374,000 were treated for self-inflicted wounds as a result of suicidal attempts.
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) states that the holiday suicide myth supports misinformation about suicide and might actually hinder prevention efforts.
If proof is needed that current suicide prevention and psychiatric drugs are not working all you need to do is look at the increasing number of suicides despite ever increasing mental health spending.”
