Every 40 seconds someone in the world takes their own life, a
global tally of more than 800,000 suicides a year, according to a landmark United Nations report on the subject.
The report published on CNN.com, the U.N. agency's first on
the subject, analyzed data on suicides from 172 countries, and took a decade to
compile.
Setting a goal to cut national suicide rates by 10 percent by
2020, the organization said suicide was a major but preventable health problem
that health authorities had failed to adequately address due to a number of
complicated factors.
Why should
take your own life…
