Do people with autism think of killing themselves?

Yes, people with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are more likely to experience suicidal ideation and attempt suicide than the general population. Studies have found that individuals with ASDs have a higher prevalence of depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions that can increase the risk of suicide. Additionally, social difficulties, bullying, and sensory sensitivities associated with ASDs can contribute to feelings of isolation, hopelessness, and suicidal ideation.
