I bet it’s the same in many parts of the world. In the U.K. the leading cause of death in men aged 20-50 was suicide for 2018-2019. You can bet that has increased substantially this year, though the deaths are probably being blamed on covid!

When I look at the world today with so many restrictions, socially imposed constraints, with people attacking each other over masks, stores harassing customers, etc, and with furthering lock downs, given that we are pack animals - tribal - it's no wonder.

Yet when I went shopping earlier today, I never saw one mask. No one even bothered with social distancing. And I live in a place with the least number of cases and lowest number of deaths in the country here - not USA.

I absolutely believe that in this situation, the cure is worse than the infliction.

I don't lay blame on anyone in charge, no one could know what to do from the onset, with such an unknown thing. But as of now, I feel many are trying to save face for the overt tactics put in place early on.

The panic has hit where it was intended. We have airlines stating that unless people are vaccinated, they will not fly. This will lead to more and more impositions, events will be next, then restaurants, stores, libraries.

Who knows what is next, really. But I'm just glad I feel as if I'm in the last haven from the pandemic.

They refuse - and this is a tangent but still related - to allow medicinal cbd in so many places, claiming it is untested, unknown, etc.. while countless people have proven it's benefits and history shows it is by and large only beneficial. They outright refuse, and go after those who opt in to it to help a sickly loved one.

Yet, mere months later after a thing was trialed... we're told it will be more or less mandatory, if only to continue to exist in the society you live in.

In time, the us and them mentality will surface. just glad I'm happy to live a hermits life, far removed from the social things being forced onto us.

日本の皆さまのご健勝とご多幸をお祈り申し上げます。

If I had to live in a big city, and my overbearing government told me I had to stay home and worry all day, I'd kill myself too.

There's nothing unbelievable about this at all.

Google: coronavirus suicide rates

All the top hits are about the large jump in suicides in Japan and Korea.

It seems like the coronavirus prevention methods -- social distance, no/small socal gatherings covering up the face, everything on Zoom -- would have the risk of enhancing hikikomori tendencies.

Marriage rates and childbirths have dropped dramatically too, correct? Even before the plandemic, Japan was having issues with all of these. The rona has just exacerbated existing and ongoing problems. Something Japan didn't need that kind of help with.

The birthrate is an important issue I believe-I know we haven't had enough time to see any numbers,but I am expecting birth rates to be down across the planet since the pandemic.
I think governments of the world all believe they need to lower the population,and at every opportunity they will attempt to stealthily acheieve this aim.
They do it by stealth,as they don't want to be compared to evil eugenisists and dictatorships.
If that is indeed the case as i suspect,increased suicide rates are something many governments would not be too upset about(in private of course).

Japan's population is a bit over 126 million. However it is important to remember that it experienced a huge baby boom in the 20th century, making its major cities among the most densely populated and expensive on earth.

It wasn't always this way, and it doesn't have to be this way in the future.

In 1900, just a little over a century ago, Japan's population was only 43.8 million, and it had survived as a complex and relatively prosperous civilization for thousands of years on even smaller numbers. Today's population means it would be a long time before the numbers fell even that far.

With automation, outsourcing, offshoring, and the coming AI/robotics revolution, Japan does not need millions of factory workers to remain prosperous. A decline in population could free up space for more comfortable lifestyles and even boost per capita GNP, making people more prosperous on average.

I know things are bad in Japan, but I found out today about the second person I know who has commited suicide.

First due to pressure of lockdowns and the second from the same plus a divorce.

Thank goodness I am too strong for bailing out like that.

Let's hope sucide doesn't come in threes.

It's government enforced and mandated hikikomori.

It's not just Japan.

Lockdowns have been proven to not only NOT WORK, but to damage human psyche.
Now throw in the hopelessness touted by the Tell-LIES-vision...

I think a final nail in the coffin is jab concerns and Convid passports - people know life is never going to go back to how it was before TPTB made their power play and, rather than fight, they literally roll over and die.
