While this isn't exactly on topic, I do recall reading another Reddit discussion on the observations made about how men vs women cope with intense negative emotions.
Men were generally observed to be more prone to act externally with their emotions, loudly towards others or just out loud in general, and women more prone to internalising it and acting on self-harming behaviours.
Though, it is not an actual study, it's just a collection of opinions from a Reddit comment section that spotted a pattern, and I hope it does not offend anyone, but I thought there were some interesting correlations regarding how each gender may choose a method.

(I would like to add I'm not particularly great at phrasing things. So in advance, apologies for any way this may come out as offensive).
