According to data released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the morality rate by suicide is rising.
Since 1999, the CDC calculated that suicide rates have risen by 30-percent over the last two decades.
Analyzing data between 1999 and 2016, the CDC found that nearly 45,000 Americans age 10 or older died by suicide in 2016 alone.
Over that period of time, suicide has risen to the 10th leading cause of death in the US.
