Coping with Suicidal Thoughts: What You Need to Know.
Suicidal ideation involves thoughts about taking your own life. There are two types: passive, where you wish to die without a plan, and active, where you intend to die and may have a plan. About 9% of people globally experience suicidal thoughts at some point in their lives. In the U.S., 4.3% of adults have these thoughts, with the highest rates among those aged 18-25. Suicidal ideation is more common among people with mental health disorders.
