    Is it all attempted suicides or successful suicides only?

      A suicide rate means successful, just like a murder rate is successful murders and not attempted murder.

      Successful. Women actually attempt suicide more, but more often choose drug overdoses rather than immediately fatal means.

        Women actually attempt suicide more

        Is that on a unique persona basis or does a person with a failed attempt skew the numbers with a second?
