We already know that most people who attempt suicide survive. This is true even from the standard viewpoint of an external observer. This is already a good reason not to attempt suicide.
Do most only survive their first attempt and try again, or do most live a natural lifespan after a failed attempt? What proportion of these suffer debilitating injuries for their efforts?
Without citation, I remember that there are two types of suicides. One is “rational” and well planned, and they typically succeed. Other are emotional shows intended to fail, and they could happen many times as manipulative instrument. And they distort statistic.
Since it doesn’t matter to me whether you are convinced or not, I won’t provide a citation, especially since if you want to know the truth of the matter, you can find results yourself in seconds.
I did do that myself just now, though, and it turns out that most people overall fail, but most people who use a gun succeed.
Of the people who survive an attempt, it seems that 90% live a natural lifespan after that. I did not find (in the seconds I spent on it) a result concerning injuries.
