Increase In Number Of Suicide Cases In Kuwait; 75 Suicide In Last 5 Month
Kuwait reported an increase in the number of suicide cases in the country this year compared to the number of suicide cases reported last year. Kuwait authorities reported 75 suicide cases in Kuwait this year starting from January 2021, local daily Al-Qabas said. Whereas the total number of suicide in the whole of 2020 was only 90, daily added.
Quoting sources, Al-Qabas reported that the suicide rates in the country during the first five months of 2021 increased by 50% compared to the same period in 2020.
Asian communities are on the top of the list in the number of suicide cases in the country.
It is reported that the increase in suicide begins with the spread of the Coronavirus pandemic, hinting at a direct link between the pandemic and its psychological and economic effects on the rise in suicides, especially among the community members.
The suicide rate of Asians has increased slightly since the Corona pandemic, daily reported quoting the head of the Amal Ishraqa Center for Psychological and Social Counseling Dr. Saad Al-Enezi. He cited the increase in mental disorders due to the Corona pandemic and the economic factors and debt accumulation as the major reason for suicide.
