[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Suicide amongst women at university isn't really much of a thing, men yes, women no. And were she to attempt such a thing, it wouldn't be in a dramatic fashion, not going to throw herself off of a building, or jump in front of a car, or use a gun. Nope pills in her bedroom.

Nor is a young woman likely to drop dead of some mysterious catastrophic event like a heart attack or stroke. It just doesn't happen.

Also, a young 20-something-year-old woman is highly unlikely to just keel over and drop dead from cancer, while out for a midnight stroll.

I'm going to go with either a boyfriend/suitor who killed her, or she was hit by a car driven by a drunk driver, and subsequently tossed into a ditch. Or accidental alcohol poisoning, or drug OD, and her friends panicked and dumped her somewhere.

Homicide or accident. [/quote]

Suicides on college campuses are actually up sharply in recent years. It is the number 1 cause of death for college students. 7% of students in college say they have seriously considered suicide.

There were a number of high-profile college student suicides in the Spring, especially among athletes, including a James Madison University softball player.

You sound incredibly ignorant. Maybe you should sit the rest of this discussion out.[/quote]

And Stanford's WoSo goalkeeper.

No idea whether this was suicide, but sadly, [b]high achievement does not preclude mental health issues. [/b]It's tremendously sad.[/quote]

I think it's probably the opposite - there's probably a correlation with high achievement and mental health issues. Those kids put a lot of pressure on themselves and probably get it from their families too. [/quote]

Absolutely.

This incredible young woman seemed to have it all before jumping to her death (which a PP said women don't do.)
