    You'd have thought a fresh year would make people feel positive, however i read somewhere that the 1st of January has on average the most suicides of any day.

    anyone know if this is true?

    Mondays for example. Or late Sunday evening.

    Almost twice as many people commit suicide on the 1st of the month than the 31st.

    Over all more people die on the first than the thirty first. This thread sounds familiar. Didn't this happen for the Disney ride fact?

    You are most likely to have a heart attack on a Monday.

    not all months have a 31st day, only half do. and yes this seems very familiar.
    If i had to guess february 29 has the fewest suicides of any day.

    January first has the most of any particular date in a year.

    It should be noted, however, that many suicides occur on dates when final report cards/grades come out among high schoolers and college students. Many school systems deliberately stagger the days each school releases grades for that very reason.

    I thought Leap Day was going to be September 31st as of 2011.

    I believe you're right, Athena. That's when February will go to 30 days, and August to 30 as well. I forget which other month loses a day... can't be October. December??

    No, that's New Year's Eve - can't mess with that. Wasn't it March? Or July?
