Toxic stress and traumatic
experiences have been linked to
mental illnesses such as anxiety
disorders and depression, as
well as the exacerbation of other
existing mental health disorders.

The United States has nearly 5 times the rate of death from drug overdoses as other comparable countries (including the UK, Canada, Australia, Austria, France, and Switzerland)

According to the CDC, opioids were involved in
more than 69,000 overdose deaths in 2019 (two-thirds of
all drug overdose deaths).

In a 2019 joint study between Harvard University and McLean
Hospital examining individuals who had recently overdosed on
opioids, nearly 60% of participants said that on some level, they
had at least some desire to die before their most recent
overdose, with 36% having a strong desire to die.

Opioid use is associated with an increased likelihood of:
• 40-60% for suicidal ideation
• 75% for suicide attempt
• 1300% for death by suicide

Individuals suffering from chronic
pain are at an increased risk of
suicide simply because of their pain
![Page 49: OPIOID USE DISORDER AND SUICIDE RISK Use...David J. Berman, MPH, MPA Vice President, Mental Health America of Indiana Executive Director, Indiana Suicide Prevention Network Director,](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022071401/60ec66b40113113c707dec82/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
While there is limited research on the
effectiveness of strategies to prevent suicide
among individuals with chronic pain, there is
strong evidence to support comprehensive
suicide risk screening and assessment as a
means of identifying those at risk.

Traditionally, suicide and overdose
prevention in OUD involves stratifying
risk based on certain demographic and
clinical factors – however, this fails to
capture the full picture.

• Changes in patterns of opioid use
• Loss of identity, sense of belonging, or social supports; shame; humiliation; insomnia
• Increased use of other substances
• Recent personal or situational events, such as legal problems, or relationship conflict

Several decades of research show that
MAT accompanied by counseling can
reduce opioid overdose-related suicides.

• Opioid related suicide can still occur even when at-risk persons receive MAT
• Risk of death among those receiving MAT are highest when the medication is initiated and when the treatment is suddenly stopped
• Prevention efforts should involve addressing these critical transition periods
