Drawing from his book ‘When It Is Darkest: Why People Die by Suicide and What We Can Do To Prevent It’, the University of Glasgow's Professor Rory O'Connor gave an overview of clinical, experimental and intervention studies to illustrate how psychological, physiological and social factors increase suicide risk and what we all can do to tackle suicide. He also highlighted the psychological evidence of what works to prevent suicidal behaviour, as well as the wider implications for the prevention of suicide.
