Depression is a treatable illness. Yet suicide remains the 9th leading reported cause of death in the United States.
For years studies on the link between back pain and depression have shown that depression and anxiety occur in as many as half of patients with chronic pain.
Now recent findings from several suicide prevention agencies in the United Kingdom have brought to light a disturbing direct link between lower back pain and suicide.
In those findings, 2 in 3 of the suicide victims with available general practitioner records had visited their doctor in the three months preceding their death. And 77% of them were there for treatment of low back pain.
