In fact,
childhood stressors
such as abuse, witnessing domestic violence, and other forms of household dysfunction are highly interrelated23, 24 and have a graded relationship to numerous health and social problems.23 - 28 We examined the relationship of 8
adverse childhood experiences (
childhood abuse [emotional, physical, and sexual], witnessing domestic violence, parental separation or divorce, and living with substance - abusing, mentally ill, or criminal household members) to the lifetime risk of suicide attempts.
We then determined whether the relationship between the total number of
such experiences (the
adverse childhood experiences [ACE] score) and risk of suicide attempts was cumulative and graded.
Our findings add insight into the pathways linking early
childhood adversity to poor adult wellbeing.29 Complementing past work that focused on physical health, 9 our findings provide information about links between ACEs and early
childhood outcomes at the intersection of learning, behavior, and health.29 We found that ACEs
experienced in early
childhood were associated with poor foundational skills,
such as language and literacy, that predispose individuals to low educational attainment and adult literacy, both of which are related to poor health.23, 30 — 33 Attention problems, social problems, and aggression were also associated with ACEs and also have the potential to interfere with children's educational
experience given known associations between self - regulatory behavior and academic achievement.34, 35 Consistent with the original ACE study and subsequent research, we found that exposure to more ACEs was associated with more
adverse outcomes, suggesting a dose — response association.3 — 8 In fact,
experiencing ≥ 3 ACEs was associated with below - average performance or problems in every outcome examined.
Objective To examine the relationship between the risk of suicide attempts and
adverse childhood experiences and the number of
such experiences (
adverse childhood experiences [ACE] score).
Felitti and colleagues1 first described ACEs and defined it as exposure to psychological, physical or sexual abuse, and household dysfunction including substance abuse (problem drinking / alcoholic and / or street drugs), mental illness, a mother treated violently and criminal behaviour in the household.1 Along with the initial ACE study, other studies have characterised ACEs as neglect, parental separation, loss of family members or friends, long - term financial adversity and witness to violence.2 3 From the original cohort of 9508 American adults, more than half of respondents (52 %)
experienced at least one
adverse childhood event.1 Since the original cohort, ACE exposures have been investigated globally revealing comparable prevalence to the original cohort.4 5 More recently in 2014, a survey of 4000 American children found that 60.8 % of children had at least one form of direct
experience of violence, crime or abuse.6 The ACE study precipitated interest in the health conditions of adults maltreated as children as it revealed links to chronic diseases
such as obesity, autoimmune diseases, heart, lung and liver diseases, and cancer in adulthood.1 Since then, further evidence has revealed relationships between ACEs and physical and mental health outcomes,
such as increased risk of substance abuse, suicide and premature mortality.4 7
Third, even after taking into account the effects of (1) established developmental risk factors and (2) concurrent circumstances and behaviors

such relationships vary with type of performer (eg, solo or band member) and nationality and whether cause of death is linked with prefame (

Thus, illicit drug use may serve as an avenue to escape or dissociate from the immediate emotional pain, anxiety, and anger that likely accompany
such experiences.46, 47 The current findings are supported by previous studies that have reported associations between forms of
childhood abuse and substance abuse in adolescents.46, 48,49 The
adverse developmental and emotional impact of these interrelated
childhood experiences, combined with behaviors inherent among this age group, 19 — 21 all may contribute to the especially strong graded relationship that we found in this age group.

adverse childhood experiences may benefit from using nicotine to regulate their mood.30, 50,51 For
such persons, attempts to quit may remove nicotine as their pharmacological coping device for the negative emotional, neurobiological, and social effects of
adverse childhood experiences.
Such assistance includes recognition of the use of nicotine to modulate problems with affect, treatment of the residua of these
adverse childhood experiences, and the use of nicotine replacement therapy57 or antidepressant medications.58 These efforts could contribute substantially to the reestablishment of the historical downward trends in smoking initiation and smoking prevalence in the United States.
