Suicides among Japanese women are on the increase as a result of the Covid-19 epidemic.
ISTANBUL, Turkey โ Themselves rates among women in Japan have increased as a result of the Covid-19 epidemic, with over 7,000 women committing suicide last year.
According to data issued by the Health Ministry on Tuesday, 7,068 women committed themselves in 2021, marking the second year in a row that the number of women who committed suicide has climbed.
The overall number of suicides in the country, however, decreased by 74.
“The coronavirus pandemic’s effect appears to manifest in a variety of ways,” a Health Ministry official told Kyodo News.
In December 2019, the world was plagued by a coronavirus outbreak, which had a detrimental impact on daily life and severely harmed livelihoods as governments implemented lockdowns to stop the spread of the deadly infection.
In total, 21,007 persons committed themselves in Japan, an increase of 838 over the number of suicides recorded in 2019.
The country, which has a population of about 126 million people, is also dealing with an aging population, which accounts for 28.5 percent of the total.
According to the Health Ministry, family problems like “marital strife and pessimism about the family’s future” were “the most common” grounds for women’s suicides.
“Those citing economic and life troubles jumped 29 to 454, with 185 women killing themselves due to financial difficulties,” according to the report.
“In 2021, 11 elementary school children, 148 junior high school students, and 314 high school students committed suicide, citing mental disorders such as depression, poor academic performance, and problems in relationships with their parents,” according to the research.
