Environmental adv ersity and suicidal behaviors in adult men and preadolescent girls with ADH D: Implications for prevention
https://www.youtube.com/ watch?v=HDqQhZgOouo
For many years\, suicide rates h ave been highest among adult men. Although this continues to be the case\, suicides have increased 300% in the past 15 years among 10- to 14-year-old girls. Despite high and increasing rates of suicidal behaviors among men an d girls\, however\, predicting suicide remains difficult given its generall y low base rate. I will present data showing that both adult men and preado lescent girls with ADHD are especially vulnerable to suicidal behaviors whe n they encounter certain adversities in life\, including financial distress and physical/sexual abuse\, respectively. These data hold considerable pro mise toward identifying who should receive targeted prevention programs in these very different high-risk groups.
