The majority of people who attempt suicide are teenage females.
More females attempt it than males, though males are FAR more likely to succeed in killing themselves.
I'm sure you've heard this statistic before, but it's interesting. To make a very broad generalization, females are usually looking for attention and don't want to kill themselves (just want the attention, sympathy, etc.) -- whereas males are thinking more on the lines of: "screw this".
