Discussion Do you think that the covid will increase the cases of suicide

[bad luck]

I think so. So many impositions I cannot bear. They change the rules every so often and it sucks. Honestly, it made me more suicidal than two years ago.

Hasn't it already?

 

[BeansOfRequirement]

Yeah, some people are temporarily unemployed cuz of it and the loneliness is obviously increasing.

 

[Trans Magus]

Definitely. Social isolation contributes to suicidality for tons of people.

I definitely think that more people will commit suicide.

But idk when the pandemic started I was much more on edge than rn. Because so much stuff happened, I lost my job etc und there was lots of emotional turmoil. Now I'm back to uni with home office so I'm basically chillin/learning all day at home so it's really stress free and boring and I'm still suicidal but I'm much more calm in general because nothing ever happens, so there's no emotional stress which would push me to commit suicide I guess. xD

The mentalhealth care system is falling even more appart since covid, people literally going insane. It taught us one important lesson: The mentalhealthcare was able to somehow be worse than it already was, a feat that was thought impossible.

Covid can effect pretty much everyone in any way. I feel so sorry for the people who are stuck with their abusers during quarantine.

Absolutely. Covid has completely made my unbearable depression and anxiety multiply by 100. I lost everything. I lost the little things that kept me going, I lost my job, I've been unemployed and sitting with my suicidal thoughts for years. Don't get me wrong, I have wanted to die my whole life, but Covid made all those feelings compound by 1000. I wish I had ctb last year during the height of all this stuff. Things will never be the same and I hate this "new normal" that people keep screaming about. It's not normal to me and I am 100 percent making this the last year of my life.
