45 Sri Lanka & United Kingdom Pesticides are the leading suicide method in Sri Lanka. Restrictions were placed on sales of the most highly humantoxic pesticides in the mid to late 1990s. Suicide rates dropped 50% from 1996 to Nonfatal poisonings and suicide by other methods did not drop. Before 1960, domestic gas was the leading method of suicide in the United Kingdom. By 1970, almost all domestic gas in the UK was non-toxic. Suicide rates dropped by nearly a third. The drop was driven by a drop in gas suicides; non-gas suicides increased slightly.

46 Why Does Reducing Access to Lethal Means Prevent Some Suicides?
47 Reducing Access to Lethal Means- Why Means Matter Why? Suicide acts are often impulsive Crises are often temporary Suicide attempts are often undertaken quickly with little planning. Most people who attempt suicide and survive do not go on to die from suicide- 90% of those who survive even nearly-lethal attempts do not go on to later die by suicide. Some suicide methods are far more deadly than others ( case fatality ranges from 1% for some methods to 85-90% for the most deadly, like firearms). Where lethal means are less available, fewer people die- it works. The common cognitive state of suicide is ambivalence (Shneidman, 1996)
48 Assessing Risk If a person has a plan, ask about method to guide the conversation and see what methods require particular attention Even if the person does not have a specific plan, ask about access to firearms About 40% of attempts are made without prior specific plans (Borges et al., 2006) You have told me that you have had thoughts of suicide, have you thought about how you would do it? 48
49 Ask about firearms Ask about firearms in the home A crisis can escalate quickly Reducing access is like taking keys from someone who is drinking alcohol- doing it prior to a crisis/intoxication is far more effective Discuss storage options 49
50 Openly discuss storage options Best Option: Temporary storage outside of the home Trusted friend or relative Firearm storage facility Gun shops/ranges Police Department When working on a plan to store outside of the home- get specific! 50
51 Openly discuss storage options Storing inside the home Another member of the home: Unload all guns Lock up guns (multiple layers of locks preferred, change passwords) Store ammunition separately 51
52 Assess Plan & Address Barriers Discuss realistically how likely the individual is to implement the plan Be realistic and don t minimize emotions/reactions regarding firearms Discuss timetable Ongoing conversation Engage support system 52
53 Making a Difference Family and friends can protect a suicidal person by temporarily storing all firearms away from home. Have a trusted person outside the home hold onto them until the situation improves. Some storage facilities, police departments, gun clubs, and gun shops will store guns. If off-site storage isn t an option: Lock the guns at home with new locks or combinations. Keep ammunition out of the home or locked separately. Or, remove a key component of the guns, e.g., the bolt.
54 Ask About Medication Use lower toxicity medication when possible Limit quantities (i.e. require weekly refills) Take into account OTC, other medication and alcohol use. Engage support network Remove unnecessary medication from home Consider use of a medication lockbox 54
