Suicide is the second leading cause of death among Oregonians ages 15-34, and the 8th leading cause of death among all ages in Oregon.
In 2010, the age-adjusted suicide rate among Oregonians of 17.1 per 100,000 was 41% higher than the national average. (Lane County’s rate is statistically about the same as the state rate.)
Firearms were the dominant mechanism of injury among men who died by suicide (62%).
Suicide
Approximately 26% of suicides occurred among veterans. Approximately 70% of suicide victims had a diagnosed
mental disorder, alcohol and /or substance use problems, or depressed mood at time of death.
Despite the high prevalence of mental health problems, less than 1/3 of male victims and about 60% of female victims were receiving treatment for mental health problems at the time of death.
Investigators suspect that one in four suicide victims had used alcohol in the hours preceding their death.
