Yes there is big connection between suicides and holidays as there are lots of people around the world who are lonely and they are unable to celebrate holidays and commit suicides during the holidays.
-
yes. Many studies have proven it is a fact, suicide rates increase during holidays, for several reasons including poverty and loneliness.
-
That's what they say...
-
Probably. Hollywood and all the dimwits who follow it like to make the holidays more than what the are. They aren't "magic". Solutions don't happen at the 11th hours. She goes off with him. You stay fired. Santa doesn't come and set you straight. But all of that is in your face. I can see why people off themselves.

Depression and suicide rates go up a lot during the winter months and holidays. This is due to economic situations, no sun, sadness over Christmas and not being with loved ones, etc. This is the time of the year that people think a lot about people who have died or that they can't be with for whatever reason. There is a big connection.
-
Depression and alcohol.
-
that would make sense, holidays would be hard if one has no family or friends, or if they do not feel hopeful at a time they were hoping they would.
-
Yes there is!!
-
Yes, apparently. The suicide rate seems to go up in January.
-
Yes they say that people that are alone are more liable to commit suicide on Holidays.
-
For those who have family, friends etc the holidays are a great time... for those who dont have these things, the holidays are a time when they are reminded of it!
-
It usually spikes in January, right after the holidays have ended.
-
Absolutely. The tie between suicide and holidays is strong. The movies, tv shows, and even commercials focus on strong family relationships. It can be a wicked time for those that don't keep busy for forward focused.
