Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Future Funding of Higher Education: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Trish Murphy:

Traditionally, it would be the same. That is all the way up. Men tend to have more dramatic crises when they have them. More succeeded suicides are by men, so we need to target those and we put a lot of effort into doing that. We use online supports. Many of them use the online SilverCloud, which is a counsellor-supported support, and a variety of things to access them. Young women present more often but the crises often tend to be around young men.
