The NCRB counts a farmer's body when a rope or poison is used. It misses the years of quiet drowning in shame and debt before that final act. In my clinic, I see that count in the men who come with stomach aches we cannot cure, because the pain is in the mind they won't speak of. Their suicide is the last note of a long song; the data only hears the echo.
