It is fascinating that during times of social crisis such as natural disaster or political disorder suicide rates are shown to decrease. One theory could be that individuals have an ability to find emotional strength and will when they feel it is necessary for the betterment of society or others.
There are many other possibilities for why this statistic has been found but it would make sense that those who are suicidal often find themselves enduring much psychological pain for the sake of others.
Please if you know someone who is suicidal please encourage them to call a professional interventionist for help!
