pity it dont effect politicoes
Sirpeter there is a problem in particular among young men in Ireland and the way statistics are gathered hides a number of suicides depending on the method chosen for the suicide. There is also the reluctance of doctors in rural areas to put suicide down as a cause of death because of stigma attached to the act. Comparisons to Japan are interesting though because there also we have a large population of young men in partiucular stuck in a kind of unemployment stasis.
Wrong again.Suicide while tragic and always shockingly to high is no higher or lower per head of population than any other European country and it is certainly lower than Japan.Is this PunchCentral?IC headlines are always misleading ye pack of fu*kers.Ye know the headline has the best lasting impact when it comes to a lie.
Good work- nice to see a national organisation not attempting to hide the problem but being open and planning properly for a known issue. Highly recommend to any young person suffering from depression/the black dog to avail of any opportunity to talk to someone. They may not be able to make the problem disappear but you will be in a better state of mind afterwards and much more likely to come upon that solution that puts you back on the road.
