Hi! I noticed that the Samaritan Befrienders Hong Kong said more than 70% of its email service users for suicide prevention were students. Does it mean that, generally, among people who have suicide intention, 70% of them are students?

Glad to hear that.

It’s much clear after your explanation. Thanks!

The high percentage of students seeking suicide prevention services indicates there are indeed many students having suicide intentions. However, since not all people having suicide intention will seek help from Samaritans, especially via email service, we cannot conclude that students constitute 70% of all people with suicide intention.
