My personal anecdotal (read: not scientific at all!) was that most of the successful suicide attempts ‘coincidentally’ happened DURING therapy. Going to therapy was an utter nightmare for most of us, only a few of us in it actually wanted to be there. Most were forced by our parents and if we refused to go, we’d be punished severely or even disowned and put out on the street.
