A major risk factor for suicide is mood disorders. Conditions such as depression, bipolar disorder, and other mood disorders significantly increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. While sleeplessness and a history of violence can also contribute to risk, mood disorders are more directly associated with suicidal ideation and attempts. Seeking counseling and treatment is important for individuals experiencing mood disorders.
