Los esfuerzos de prevención nunca son suficientes, siempre hay algo nuevo que aportar por lo cual debemos aunar nuestros esfuerzos 

El suicidio es quizás la causa de muerte más asociada a factores psicológicos, ya que implica una decisión consciente de terminar con la propia vida.
La labor de los profesionales de la salud mental es vital para comprender el suicidio y desarrollar mecanismos de prevención.
La prevención del suicidio requiere la colaboración entre distintos sectores de la sociedad, tanto públicos como privados, incluyendo salud, educación, entre otros medios.
