Bc women attempt different styles than men. Women are more likely to overdose or cut themselves while men are more likely to shoot themselves or hang themselves

I’ve said this before and got called stupid but men psychologically do not care about the people that have to clean it up or how it will affect those who find them. Women think about the mess and how people will find them.

This is actually a psychological conundrum like I’ve seen documentaries where they say certain ways women attempt suicide are unusual or atypical

Yes exactly! Poison & overdose are the most common things for women to try but it also takes the longest to kill, is easier to treat if someone intervenes, and is less likely to work bc bodies all have different tolerances and everything so it’s pretty unpredictable how much damage it will do unless you do heavy research beforehand. Because of all of that, it’s dramatically less effective which causes large disparities in the stats of attempts vs completed suicides.

I know when I was suicidal as a teen, I actively thought about how I could do it so no one had to find me or see my body specifically bc I didn’t want to traumatize anyone, which is why I really do believe that that’s a likely reason for suicide choices, but then again it’s very confirmation bias coded
