U S death by own action rate climbs amid tougher times
Federal data show a sharp rise in death by own action since 1999 with a 2 percent annual increase after 2006 as recession, unemployment, and social isolation grew. White women aged 45 to 64 saw especially large gains, while overall rates for other killers declined. Experts cite economic distress, Internet influence, and mental health factors as contributing elements.
