Since 2010, the conversation about suicide has increased, because many young people have committed suicide in a short period of time. This was shocking for the community and they wanted to know what health authorities and politicians were going to do about what appeared to be an escalating and serious problem.
Some authorities like Sinn Fèin and Gerry Adams, declared the situation a “crisis” and vowed to act on it. Between 1999 and 2008 suicide’s rates in Northern Ireland had increased
by 64%. In 2002, 76% of all suicides in Northern Ireland were male and 60% were between 15 and 34 years old. Some explanations for suicide are teenage drug use and addiction and disadvantaged groups, for the few opportunities to work. "Suicide rates can also be affected by a number of different things including recession, rising unemployment, budget cuts and other social
factors."
The Community complains that the politicians have failed to intervene when the rises of the suicide rates were increasing and the lack of efficiency of the campaigns to prevent young people to commit suicide. Institutions have been created to work with youth who attempted suicide but not a lot of people have faith in them. Since the problem has yet to be solved.
