Mental health care can be lousy and people can be attempting suicide in similar numbers but with a less lethal method of suicide you will see a reduction in numbers of completed suicide.

England changed gas supplies from coal gas to natural gas. Nothing else changed. Rates of completed suicide dropped.

England changed the way that coproxamol was prescribed. Again suicide rates dropped.

England changed the way that paracetamol is sold and again there has been a permanent drop in completed suicide.

You keep saying that people who use guns would just use a different method. You are wrong, most of them would not. Research shows the people have preferred methods and that reducing access to those methods reduces the rates of attempted and completed suicide.
