Out of curiosity why isn't alcohol and medications considered a suicide method?
It's usually just overdosed on medicines I heard from people who had attempted that method. If celebrities can die from accidental overdose, who to say this cannot be a suicide method?

Suicide isn't accidental. Choking on your own vomit though taking to many pills and booze or, for example, dying from an axphysiwank without the intention of killling oneself is misadventure.

I don't know, maybe because it isn't the traditional method of suicide like hanging, drowning or slitting throat is.
