A consecutive case series study of the association between psychiatric diagnoses and suicide methods using coronial data in Queensland, Australia, from 1989 to 2021
People with psychotic disorders were the most likely to use diverse methods and would benefit the most from means restriction interventions. Trialling interventions to ensure that people with psychotic disorders can avoid situations where they could use these methods may reduce suicides in this group. Further analysis of what drugs people with depression and bipolar might use is needed.
