An estimated one million people per year die by suicide or about one person in 10,000 (1.4% of all deaths), or "a death every 40 seconds or about 3,000 every day". As of 2004 the number of people who die by suicide is expected to reach 1.5 million per year by 2020.One way where individuals raise awareness on World Suicide Prevention Day.Suicide is very common in India now a days many farmers in thousand numbers commit suicide every year due to incurred loss in failed agriculture due to excessive money input and less or no production due to many causes.Recent Brurari .Delhi case of mass suicide and in UP are due to other reasons but not getting service,not have enough source of earning or loss of earning or death of near ones and having bad disease,social stigma and insult,few social media activism  and marital disharmony are other major causes of depression ar causes of suicide.

On average, three male suicides are reported for every female one, consistently across different age groups and in almost every country in the world. "Conversely, rates of suicide attempts tend to be 2-3 times higher in women than in men, although the gender gap has narrowed in recent years."More people die from suicide than from murder and war; it is the 13th leading cause of death worldwide. According to WHO there are twenty people who have a failed suicide attempt for every one that is successful, at a rate approximately one every three seconds.Suicide is the "most common cause of death for people aged 15 – 24."

According to WHO, suicide accounts for nearly half of all violent deaths in the world. Brian Mishara, IASP president, noted that, "more people kill themselves than die in all wars, terrorist acts and interpersonal violence combined." As of 2008, the WHO refers the widest number of suicides occur in the age group 15 - 29, while the lowest in the 80+ although representing as well the one with the highest rate (per 100,000) of all age groups, with 27.8 suicides and 60.1 for females and males respectively.Follows a brief summary of key quotes on the subject of suicide from different sources:

             "The main suicide triggers are poverty, unemployment, the loss of a loved one, arguments and legal or work-related problems.Suicide results from many complex sociocultural factors and is more likely to occur during periods of socioeconomic, family and individual crisis (e.g. loss of a loved one, unemployment, sexual orientation,[39] difficulties with developing one's identity, disassociation from one's community or other social/belief group, and honour).

               In richer countries, three times as many men die of suicide than women do, but in low- and middle-income countries the male-to-female ratio is much lower at 1.5 men to each woman. In the United States, males are four times more likely to die from suicide than are females. However, females are more likely to attempt suicide than are males. The disparity in suicide rates has been partly explained by the use of more lethal means and the experience of more aggression and higher intent to die [..] in men than women.

                   Suicide prevention's priorities, as declared on the 2012 World Suicide Prevention Day event, are stated below:--

1.We need to develop and implement awareness campaigns, with the aim of increasing awareness of suicidal behaviours in the community, incorporating evidence on both risk and protective factors.
2.We need to target our efforts not only to reduce risk factors but also to strengthen protective factor, especially in childhood and adolescence.
3.We need to train health care professionals to better understand evidence-based risk and protective factors associated with suicidal behaviour.
4.We need to combine primary, secondary and tertiary prevention.
5.We need to increase use of and adherence to treatments shown to be effective in treating diverse conditions; and to prioritise research into effectiveness of treatments aimed at reducing self-harm and suicide risk.
