Suicide is a devastating and complex problem worldwide, accounting for around 900,000 deaths every year. A three-part Series helps us to better understand the risk factors related to suicide, and to identify strategies to prevent self-destructive behavior. Two of the papers review the current state of knowledge for self-harm and suicide in adolescents and young men, respectively. A third paper reviews prevention of suicide by the limiting of access to highly lethal methods of suicide.
