“…A possible explanation is that the symptom profile is different across sexes; men score higher in negative symptoms and disorganisation, and women have a higher prevalence of depressive symptoms (Morgan, Castle, & Jablensky, 2008 ). Depressive symptoms were the most important factor related to suicidality (Barbeito et al, 2021 ). We also found that the suicide risk was higher among adolescents than young adults.…”

Background Youth suicide rates have increased markedly in some countries. This study aimed to estimate the population-attributable risk of psychiatric disorders associated with suicide among Taiwanese youth aged 10–24 years. Methods Data were obtained from the National Death Registry and National Health Insurance (NHI) claims database between 2007 and 2019. Youth who died by suicide were included, and comparisons, 1:10 matched by age and sex, were randomly selected from the Registry for NHI beneficiaries. We used multivariable logistic regression to estimate suicide odds ratios for psychiatric disorders. The population-attributable fractions (PAF) were calculated for each psychiatric disorder. Results A total of 2345 youth suicide and 23 450 comparisons were included. Overall, 44.8% of suicides had a psychiatric disorder, while only 7.9% of the comparisons had a psychiatric disorder. The combined PAF for all psychiatric disorders was 55.9%. The top three psychiatric conditions of the largest PAFs were major depressive disorder, dysthymia, and sleep disorder. In the analysis stratified by sex, the combined PAF was 45.5% for males and 69.2% for females. The PAF among young adults aged 20–24 years (57.0%) was higher than among adolescents aged 10–19 years (48.0%). Conclusions Our findings of high PAF from major depressive disorder, dysthymia, and sleep disorder to youth suicides suggest that youth suicide prevention that focuses on detecting and treating mental illness may usefully target these disorders.

“…Relatedly, considerations of unique risk factors and protective factors and sources of strengths for this population should be determined and routinely assessed. For example, negative symptoms may be related to reduced suicidal behavior ( 10 , 92 ) and defeatist attitudes may further be protective from suicide ( 93 ).…”

Although it is well established that individuals living with psychosis are at increased risk for suicidal ideation, attempts, and death by suicide, several gaps in the literature need to be addressed to advance research and improve clinical practice. This Call-to-Action highlights three major gaps in our understanding of the intersection of psychosis and suicide as determined by expert consensus. The three gaps include research methods, suicide risk screening and assessment tools used with persons with psychosis, and psychosocial interventions and therapies. Specific action steps to address these gaps are outlined to inform research and practice, and thus, improve care and prognoses among persons with psychosis at risk for suicide.

“…Suicidality is one of the most demanding topics in psychiatry. Globally, over 800,000 people commit suicide every year ( World Health Organization, 2014 ), and suicide was recently listed as the main cause of premature death for adolescents suffering from psychosis ( Barbeito et al, 2021 ). Risk factors associated with suicide are complex and include the psychotic symptoms themselves ( Stefenson and Titelman, 2016 ; Hawton et al, 2005 ), substance and alcohol use ( Karnick et al, 2021 ; Kamali et al, 2000 ), the male sex ( Franklin et al, 2017 ), and socio-economic issues ( Song and Lee, 2016 ).…”
