Answer 1

(1) answer:- true . The most common method used by people who attempt suicide but do not succeedis poisoning.

A suicide attempt is an attempt where a person tries to commit suicide but survives. It may be referred to as a failed suicide attempt or nonfatal suicide attempt, but the latter terms are subject to debate among researchers.Suicide attempts include parasuicide such as self-harm where there is no actual intention of killing oneself.

Some suicide methods have higher rates of lethality than others. The use of firearms results in death 90% of the time. Wrist-slashing has a much lower lethality rate, comparatively. 75% of all suicide attempts are by drug overdose, a method that is often thwarted because the drug is nonlethal, or is used at a nonlethal dosage. These people survive 97% of the time.

(2.) Answer :- Divorced.

Marital status and suicide among men:-

higher risks of suicide were found in divorced than in married persons. Divorced and separated persons were over twice as likely to commit suicide as married persons . Being single or widowed had no significant effect on suicide risk. When data were stratified by sex, it was observed that the risk of suicide among divorced men was over twice that of married men.
