I went to a memorial service recently for someone who committed suicide, making it the second such service I have been to in six months. Both were men, although of different ages. It is hard to understand suicide. I can understand why someone may think it, but I have a hard time understanding why they would carry it out. Here is an excellent article that explains how the rate of suicide for men goes up in hard times, and how we may want to be on the lookout for men we know who are on the brink in these bad economic times.
