Hours after a medical examiner ruled Kate Spade’s death a suicide by hanging, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a harrowing study revealing suicide rates are on the rise in nearly every state. Firearms were revealed to be the most common method of suicide by those with and without a known mental illness. Twenty-five states saw an increase of more than 30 percent. “We can see suicide rates improve slower than the economy.”The study also comes a day after Netflix announced plans for a third season of its hit series “13 Reasons Why,” which focuses on a high schooler’s suicide. The CDC recommends that states take a comprehensive public health approach to suicide prevention, and that everyone remain vigilant about possible warning signs.
