This book was released on 2019-04-19 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suicide prevention initiatives are part of much broader systems connected to activities such as the diagnosis of mental illness, the recognition of clinical risk, improving access to care, and coordinating with a broad range of outside agencies and entities around both prevention and public health efforts. Yet suicide is also an intensely personal issue that continues to be surrounded by stigma. On September 11-12, 2018, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop in Washington, DC, to discuss preventing suicide among people with serious mental illness. The workshop was designed to illustrate and discuss what is known, what is currently being done, and what needs to be done to identify and reduce suicide risk. Improving Care to Prevent Suicide Among People with Serious Mental Illness summarizes presentations and discussions of the workshop.

Download or read book Relationship Between Loss of Culture and American Indian Youth Suicide in the United States and the State of South Dakota written by Renee Fearon and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suicide among American Indian (Al) youth has become a serious epidemic. The suicide rate in the United States is approximately two times higher than the national average encompassing all other races. South Dakota, in particular, has even higher instances of youth suicide among the Al population, especially on its seven reservations. It has been found that many factors, including family dysfunction, drug/alcohol abuse, poverty, and lack of mental health services contribute to the high instances of Al youth suicide. One factor that should be considered but is often overlooked is the cultural loss experienced by many Al people. Through a review of previous research and two interviews it has been found that cultural loss has at least some impact on Al suicide and should be considered a factor. Suicide prevention/education programs may want to take this information, and explore using cultural awareness to enhance their programs.

This book was released on 2015-12-29 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2011, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration identified youth suicide as the second leading cause of death for Indian youth between 15 and 24 years of age. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control reported Native youth suicide to be two and a half times the national average in 2012. Many Native children face hopelessness each and every day. They wake up to overcrowded homes with up to 10 or 15 people living in a two or three bedroom house. Many lack access to fresh, healthy food or breakfast because they live in food deserts. In 2014, the Department of Justice released a report called Ending Violence So Children Can Survive. That report found that Native children experience PTSD at the same rate as veterans from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Some communities are dealing with daily suicide attempts and suicide clusters. Over the last six months, the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota has suffered at least 11 suicides and at least 379 suicide attempts have been reported. This is just one reservation. Many communities across Indian Country are facing similar tragedies or attempted tragedies.

Download or read book Suicide and Society in India written by Peter Mayer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-10-18 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In India about 123,000 people take their own lives each year, the second highest total in the world. There is a suicide death in India almost every 4 minutes, and it is the leading cause of death for rural Indians especially women in early adulthood. This book presents a comprehensive analysis of suicide in India based on original research as well as existing studies, and looks at the issue in an international, sociological and historical context. The author looks at the reliability of suicide data in India, and goes on to discuss various factors relating to suicide, including age, gender, education and marriage. Among its findings, the book exposes a hidden youth suicide ‘crisis’ in India which is argued to be far more serious than the better known crisis of farmer suicides. The book dispels many myths that are commonly associated with suicide, and highlights a neglected public health problem. Suicide in the region of Pondicherry is looked at in detail, as well as in the Indian Diaspora. This book is a useful contribution to South Asian Studies, as well as studies in Mental Health and Sociology.
