I believe women attempt suicide more often but men are more succesful at it. May be that for women it’s more often a cry for help where as with men once things get that bad they’re serious about it.

It’s not a cry for help. It’s esthetics. Man chose more violent methods, and women chose things that seems more gentle. Or medicine is much more sucesful in treating overdose than point-blank headshots.
