I would strongly like to see these studies done on autism as I believe it to be the most discriminated against and unspoken of issue on the entire plate. I think people are simply not aware of what goes/has gone on in this sphere and it needs to be expounded on to the public.

Yes, there are already some studies showing much higher rates of suicide in autistics, when compared to the general population, so there can be a strong link, which is a good direction for new studies.

Neurodivergent here. I was bullied all throughout school to the point of near suicide, even the teachers joined in and tormented me. I can't think of a time in my life I haven't been bullied, abused, and treated like trash.
