People who are suicidal frequently plan or think about it for a long time. However the decision to actually attempt suicide is often a spur-of-the-moment decision.

Candidates for Wisconsin Supreme Court at odds over issue.
Research shows starting as early as 7:15 a.m. will be harmful to students, reduce learning.
