There has long been concern about the alarmingly high rate of suicide among Australian men, with the focus particularly on suicide rates among males under 25.

But new research from the Griffith University in Queensland has highlighted a growing number of men aged 75 and over, who are taking their lives.

On any given day, around five Australian men will decide to end their lives. In the past, suicide prevention programs have targeted men under the age of 25, especially in remote areas.

But Dr Helen Klieve, from the Australian Institute of Suicide Research and Prevention at Brisbane’s Griffith University, says there is another worrying trend emerging.

”The highest rates are now in the 25-to-34-year-old [age group], 35-to-44 year-olds [have] the next highest rate, and fairly close to that is the 75 plus year-old males,”
