This makes me wonder what the actual rate of suicides are performed under influence compared to completely sober. I have a feeling the latter is extremely rare.

- cf141q5325 7y agoI dont think that is the case either. Alcohol has an influence but like with handguns, there are plenty who manage without both.
- Smithalicious 7y agoThe percentage of suicides performed under the influence seems to be about 30%[0], so a minority of suicides, but still a sizeable number. [0] https://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/19/health/19suicide.html https://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/19/health/19suicide.html
