There is evidence that it's gendered. One example is that hospital admissions for self-harm are higher for girls than boys. It's also going up for girls and not going up for boys. See figures 1 and 2 of: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/26640...

That reminds me that The Economist had some interesting material on suicide rates recently: https://www.economist.com/the-economist-explains/2018/11/30/...

In some countries there has been a huge fall in the suicide rate for women. It seems to be correlated with increasing opportunity and independence.

Check the statistics of hospital admissions for being harmed by others, check the perpetrators, and you'll find the boys missing from your statistic.
