18
​
Each person who dies by suicide leaves 18 others behind who experience a major life disruption. Without postvention, bereaved survivors are as much as nine times more likely to complete suicide themselves.
10
​
On average, 1 person dies by suicide every 10 days across Escambia, Santa Rosa, Okaloosa,
Walton
 and Bay Counties.  Twice as many people die by suicide than by homicide.  There are 25 attempts for every death by suicide in the U.S.
1

Only 1 in 4 survivors of suicide loss seeks help. As many as 25 percent of survivors indicate they struggle with their own thoughts of suicide.
