A survey of suicide in the four nations in the Indian subcontinent (Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka) and among emigrants from those nations in other nations revealed little that was culturally invariant in these groups. The suicide rates and sex ratio varied greatly between the different groups. There was a trend for young females and elderly males to have relatively higher suicide rates, and poisoning (followed by hanging) was the most popular method for suicide. Suggestions are made for future research on this topic.
