Around 1% of people die by suicide, 2.7% attempt suicide, 3.1% make a plan for suicide, and 9.2% are challenged with suicidal ideation (Nock et al., 2008) . Tragically, this means roughly 4.8 million Americans alive today will die by suicide, placing suicide among the top ten leading causes of death in the United States (Sullivan et al., 2013) . Worldwide, it is the leading cause of death for women age 15-19 and the second leading cause of death for teenagers (World Health Organization and others, 2014). What's worse, the rates of suicide seem to be increasing, up 28% in the civilian population of the United States between 1999 and 2010 (Sullivan et al., 2013) .",

To prevent suicides, we need a better understanding of the underlying phenomena relating to both the immediate risk of suicide (or acute suicidal risk) and the long term risks. For both cases, data is extremely sparse, never in real time, and subject to some bias. Few objective measures exist to measure outcomes, and those that do exist tend to have poor temporal resolution (measured in weeks or months) and are labor intensive. Optimizing intervention efficacy or policy-level strategies is difficult without such data.",

"text": "Quantifying Mental Health: Thanks to the use of vital signs like temperature and blood pressure, cross correlation of various easy-to-observe symptoms and the rapid measurement of blood chemistry, the diagnosis of physical illness has improved radically since 1900. Mental and behavioral healthcare has not benefited in the same way from binary diagnostics. In part, this may be because physical health conditions manifest irrespective of whether the patient is in a diagnostic healthcare setting, while mental health conditions manifest when a person interacts with the rest of their world, making measurement in a laboratory difficult. Social media may seem, at first, to be a strange data source for studying mental health, but there are myriad quantifiable signals within social media that capture how a person interacts with their world. We suggest that data collected in the \"white space\" between visits with healthcare professionals may be part of a rigorous, scalable, and quantified diagnostic approach to mental and behavioral illness. Language, in particular, has proven to be a potent lens for the analysis of mental health, as evidenced by the wide usage of the Linguistic Inquiry Word Count (Tausczik and Pennebaker, 2010; Pennebaker et al., 2001 ) and the depth of publications at the Computational Linguistics and Clinical Psychology workshops (Resnik et al., 2014; Mitchell et al., 2015a; Hollingshead and Ungar, 2016) .",

Similarly, common psychological phenomena, like personality factors and psychological well-being are now well-studied through emprical analysis of social me-dia data (Schwartz et al., 2013b; Park et al., 2015; Schwartz et al., 2013a) . These approaches and survey methods were sufficient to support analysis of relatively common conditions, but are not as effective for rarer ones. Coppersmith et al. (2014a) introduced methods for examining public data which allowed for more scalable creation of data sets, thus permitting the examination of rarer conditions. Post traumatic stress and schizophrenia are two examples of conditions significantly rarer than depression, whose analysis are possible by these techniques (Coppersmith et al., 2014b; . Suicide and suicidal ideation were more difficult to obtain data for, but some population-level analysis was enabled by anonymous suicide help fora (Kumar et al., 2015; Kiciman et al., 2016) . Additionally, Robertson et al. (2012) investigated the role that social media has in suicide clusters (among people in disparate geographies connected online).",

I was so foolish when I was young, so many suicide attempts! I have been out of touch since I was hospitalized after my suicide attempt last week.

"text": "Often, treatment progress is assessed using weekly or monthly questionnaires or interviews that require retrospection on the part of the patient. However, retrospective self-report measures are notoriously context dependent and highly influenced by momentary accessible information. Furthermore, the commonly reported tendency toward \"backfilling\" that often happens when written journals are employed in a therapeutic context is worth noting (Stone et al., 2003) . When a patient is asked to keep a paper journal in the space between office visits, they frequently backfill the entries just prior to their appointment from (biased) memory, to please their therapist or appear compliant. Thus, several weeks of mood journaling may be compiled in the waiting area before their visit rather than as they naturally occur. All of these issues pose a problem for reconstructing events surrounding suicidal crisis and make wider generalizations more challenging, bording on speculative. Ideally, analysis of personal social media data in conjunction with more traditional methods may offset the short comings of each method in isolation.",

"text": "We estimate the age and gender of each user who attempted to take their life to provide aggregate demographic information from the users in the dataset (see Figure 2 ) and to allow us to directly control for variability due to age and gender in our analysis. Demographic estimates were derived from the authored content of each user via lexica magnanimously provided by the World Well-Being Project . Though imperfect (91.9% accuracy for gender, r = 0.83 correlation for age), these estimates are informative in aggregate. Notably, there are significantly more women in our data than men, and almost all users are between the age of 15 and 29. This indicates that we do not have a representative sample of the demographics on Twitter, with polling indicating that 37% of adults aged 18 to 29 and 12% of those in middle age are on Twitter (Duggan et al., 2015) . Since the older demographic, also at risk for suicide, does not show up in our sample, it suggests that we are primarily capturing the youth at risk for suicide, perhaps because they are more likely to discuss the subject openly. For each user who has attempted to take their life, we draw an age-and gender-matched control from a large pool of random English users. We find a user of the same estimated gender and the smallest difference in esitmated age. It is likely that 4-8% of these (assumed) neurotypical control users have or will try to take their life, given the rates of suicide attempts in the population (Nock et al., 2008) . This contamination will only serve to weaken our models and obscure trends. We make no attempt to remedy this and the results should be treated as lower bounds.",

As explanation, consider the top Venncloud which compares users prior to their attempt to take their life (left) with neurotypicals (right). This examines language at the level of tokens, which here is either a single word, emoticon, or symbol. Each token can only show up once in the visualization, so if the token is used with higher probability by neurotypical users, it is displayed on the right. If it is used with higher probability by users who tried to take their life (only examining data prior to that attempt), it is displayed on the left. Tokens that occur with approximately the same probability are displayed in the middle. For a more detailed description, see Coppersmith and Kelly (2014) . A few interesting phenomena emerge from this simple analysis: [1] neurotypicals use emoticons and emoji with much higher probability than a user prior to a suicide attempt (also see Figure 4 ), [2] users are more likely to talk about suicide after an attempt than before it, [3] users prior to a suicide attempt use more self-focused language, replicating similar findings in those challenged with depression Coppersmith et al., 2014a; Coppersmith et al., 2015a) , [4] users prior to a suicide attempt are more likely to employ automatic means of tracking their followers (as most uses of the token \"followers\" are from the automatic output of these applications). Figure 4 indicates that neurotypicals (green) use emoticons and emoji with a higher frequency than those who attempt suicide, before (blue) or after (red) that attempt. For each day where we have at least 10 tweets, we calculate the proportion of tweets for each group that contains an emoticon or an emoji. Interestingly, neurotypicals and people who attempt suicide seem to adopt emoji around the same time, starting in 2012, but neurotypicals use them more.",

These methods might be used to detect emotional states that indi-cate high risk for suicidal crisis. Detection of hypomanic states (associated with multiple attempts) ( Bryan et al., 2008) and elevated levels of guilt or shame have been found among some populations at risk for suicide (Ray-Sannerud et al., 2012) . Hashtags provide implicit labels of emotion (excluding any tweet that also has #SARCASM or #JK) -a tweet that contains #ANGER is labeled anger, but not one that contains #ANGER #SARCASM. We diverged from past work and focused on emotions more directly related to suicide and psychological phenomena, as well as an automatically-induced no emotion category. We used up to 40,000 tweets from each label, selected from a random Twitter sample collected during 2015. For each tweet, we removed the hashtag label from the text, and trained a character n-gram language model. Inclusion of a no emotion label calls for a slightly more complicated training procedure, as these training tweets were selected simply because they lacked an explicit emotional hashtag. Many of the tweets in this category do express an emotion. Creating no emotion training data using tweets that lack an explicit emotion hashtag results in the no emotion label being particularly contaminated by tweets expressing emotions. This, in turn leads the classifier to frequently misclassify emotional tweets as having no emotion. This would skew the performance of the classifier when used beyond training and skew the estimates of accuracy of the classifier (since many tweets labeled and evaluated as no emotion actually have emotional content). Thus, we employ semisupervised learning to decrease the effect of this contamination: We train the model once with 40k random tweets we label as no emotion, then use this initial model to score each of a second set of no emotion tweets. Any tweet in this second set of ostensibly no emotion tweets that is classified by the inital model as having any emotion is removed, since it is likely to be a contaminating emotion-bearing tweet. A random (second) subset of 40k tweets are then selected from those that remain. The model we use for analysis is trained with this cleaner (second) set of 40k no emotion tweets.",

All the people investigated here survived their suicide attempt, so there may be systematic differences between those in our dataset and those who die by suicide. Similarly, we have no verification of the attempts of these users, though the data has face validity with existing research on suicide. The data explored here is primarily from women aged 15-29. While this is a group at elevated risk for suicide, their behavior, motivations, and stressors are likely significantly different from other at-risk groups (e.g., transgendered individuals or middleaged males). Furthermore, these users self identify and present themselves as challenged with a highly stigmatized issue in a very public manner. It is clear this is a subpopulation separate from neurotypical controls. We cannot be sure, however, exactly how different this population might be from the larger cohort who has attempted to take their life.",

Ideally, even these simple analyses can provide a foundation for non-invasive screening and interventions to prevent suicides. However, significant challenges exist in applying this technology broadly in ways that preserve privacy and maintain a high standard of care using limited clinical resources. Despite the potential lives saved, the general population may not be amenable to its use given the perceived cost to privacy, as reaction to the Samaritan's Radar 2 , suggests. However, opt-in continual analysis of social media data may be a reasonable method for ecological momentary assessment and for monitoring psychological and behavioral state over time. For further discussion of the ethics, privacy, and practical considerations around interventions using this kind of technology, see Wood et al. (2016) . Suicide is a large and looming challenge, claiming a tragic number of lives each year. Given the societal stigma, discrimination, and prejudice associated with it, finding data to better understand the risk of suicide has been a consistent challenge. Our analysis here suggests some future directions for exploration, along with providing some quantified insight into the phenomena of acute suicidal risk. It is a small but important step towards improved outcomes and lives saved.",
