Abstract
Between 2001 and 2011, there was a disproportionate national increase in hospital-treated self-harm events among middle-aged adults that mirrored national trends in suicide. Because the increase was largely accounted for by an overall increase in mental health hospitalizations of middle-aged adults, the rising rate of hospital-treated self-harm events may reflect broader population-based mental health challenges facing US middle-aged adults.
