Suicide Among Mentally Ill Inmates
Suicide by inmates with schizophrenia or manic-depressive illness is relatively common.
Data collected from New York State jails between 1977 and 1982 showed that half of all inmates who committed suicide had been previously hospitalized for treatment of a serious brain disorder.
For each successful suicide in jails, there are many others that are unsuccessful.
According to a chief psychiatrist in the Los Angeles County Jail, the ratio of failed suicide attempts to deaths by people with untreated brain disorders is about 20 to 1.

Schizophrenia is treatable Outpatient treatment and rehabilitation programs
for people with schizophrenia can reduce psychiatric re-hospitalization rates, improve quality of life, prevent homelessness and increase the likelihood of gainful employment (Hargreaves & Shumway, 1989)
Half of the people who receive treatment for schizophrenia either recover completely or are able to live independently with only modest psychosocial support (Biology of Mental Disorders, OTA, 1992)
