Does life insurance covers suicide in Missouri?
Before 2007, Missouri did not allow life insurance policies to exclude suicide, except that the insurer could avoid payment if it could be proven that the policyholder contemplated suicide when he bought the policy. Some resources will incorrectly state that this is still the law, thereby causing confusion. In about 2007, the law was changed and now insurance companies may exclude suicide for one year after the policy is purchased (in Missouri). After one year insurance companies must pay for death by suicide, even though the policy may recite a longer exclusion period. Note that an insurance company may initially deny your claim after the one year period hoping that you won't know the law and will go away. If the insured commits suicide within the one year exclusion period, the insurance company must return the premium with interest. The Missouri law is located at the link below.

What are the laws in Georgia about collecting on life insurance policy after an overdose?
The real answer lies in what the specific Life Insurance Policy states. Various states have some requirements about "suicide" deaths and how long or short of period of years a policy may be in force before suicide is a covered cause of death. If Georgia has no such law, the policy language will govern whether an OD death is covered. Read you policy.
