So, which do you think is the saddest day of the week?
According to a recent study, suicides are much more likely to occur on Wednesday than they are any other day of the week. Though they lack the data to be sure, researchers think this significant difference may be due to midweek stress. Once getting over the midweek hump, however, the probability of suicide drops dramatically. In case you are interested, the suicide rates by day of the week are:
Sunday: 11.8%
Monday: 14.3%
Tuesday: 12.7%
Wednesday: 24.6%
Thursday: 11.1%
Friday: 11.2%
Saturday: 14.4%
Have a nice day…
