World Suicide Prevention Day poster

 

Suicide is the single biggest killer of men under the age of 45 in the country, but suicides among teenage girls and young women have almost doubled in recent years.

World Suicide Prevention Day, observed on September 10 every year, is a platform to raise awareness of suicide and to promote preventative measures to reduce the number of suicides and suicide attempts globally.
