Answer to Question 1

A
Although the rate of attempted suicide is three times higher among females, males are more successful in committing suicide because of the more lethal methods that they choose to use. The suicide rate in teens doubled between 1960 and 2000, and the rate increased by 18 in 2004.

D
Individuals with HIV can have signs of CNS damage that may present as a psychiatric illness before HIV or AIDS is detected.
