Deaths in Australia 2022 shows that suicide is the leading cause of death for 15-to-24-year-olds. Since children and young people tend not to die from other causes, suicides account for a high percentage of deaths among them.
In 2021:
- 402 Australian young adults ages 15-24 died by suicide.
- 112 child and adolescent suicide deaths occurred, with the majority of deaths among those aged 5-17 (74%).
The first step to improving mental health and well-being of a young person is to intervene early. The person can be helped through early intervention, improved mental health knowledge, and increased encouragement to seek help. In addition to preventing the short-term detrimental effects of mental health disorders, it might also be possible to safeguard young people from long-term consequences. A young person may continue to face long-lasting dysfunction and disadvantage as an adult if he or she leaves mental health disorders untreated.
