Suicide, the deliberate act of killing oneself, is responsible for over 800,000 deaths worldwide every year (WHO, 2014). Among those aged 15–29 years, it is the second leading cause of death. For each adult who dies by suicide there may be more than 20 others who attempt suicide, that is, intentionally poison, injure, or harm themselves without a fatal outcome (WHO, 2014). For each person who suicides, it is estimated that at least six others (family, friends, workmates) are affected by the death (Suicide Prevention Australia; SPA, 2014). The age-standardised rate of suicide (which adjusts for differences in the size and age structure of populations over time) is somewhat higher in high-income countries than in low- and middle-income countries (WHO, 2014). In Australia, more than 2,500 people die from suicide every year (ABS, 2016), a death rate well in excess of that from traffic accidents. For Australians aged 15 to 44 years, suicide is the leading cause of death. Suicide rates for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are particularly high and more than twice those for other Australians. As well as deaths by suicide, some 65,000 people are estimated to attempt to take their own lives (SPA, 2014). The present report provides information on the incidence of suicide in Queensland for the period 2011–2013. As such, it complements previous reports of the Australian Institute for Suicide Research and Prevention on suicides in Queensland for the years 1990–1995, 1996–1998, 1999–2001, 2002–2004, 2005–2007, 2008–2010.
