According to this page ^[1], the youth suicide rate actually seems to have risen somewhere between 1991 and 1996, and the claim that it started in 2014 seems to simply because there was a temporary lull in youth suicides in 2014. Speaking from personal experience, I can attest that the epidemic of student suicides was already a talking point in Hong Kong as far back as 2006. I think more research needs to be done here to establish when the suicide rate actually spiked, and references added. Edderiofer ( talk) 17:42, 12 September 2021 (UTC) reply
