Try googling/binging U.S. suicides this year...thousands have mental issues and sometimes solve the issue by ending their own life....it has always been this way and will only increase as the population density increases and people become more disillusioned with the way life is becoming...it isn't pleasant, but it isn't going to change any time soon.

White males complete most suicides. That is certainly not a leap.

This is not even close to true. You might be interested in the following article, which summarizes several studies in different countries during the pandemic.
