half of all states experiencing a 30 percent rise in suicides

Someone not surprised by the news? The Centers for Disease Control. On Thursday, the CDC released a study that found suicide rates have increased in nearly every state since 1999, with half of all states experiencing a 30 percent rise in suicides.

More troubling, only about half of the people who died by suicide had a known mental health condition.
