College Students: Substance Abuse and Risk of Suicide

Depression is highly prevalent among college students with rates increasing each year, showing no signs of improvement. With the high stress and demand college students are faced with, it is critical for us as spectators and for health professionals to understand the variables associated with depression to further prevent any permanent outcomes, such as suicide. The substances we focused on in this paper were alcohol and drugs. We hypothesize that there is a significant correlation between suicide in college students and substance abuse.
