Yeah, according to Wikipedia..

Sucides are at a 30 year high. I will imagine that the economic fallout from COVID (recession or depression) will push that rate higher.
Unfortunately, much of this has to do with loss of meaningful employment (in my opinion). I have a job but it is completely meaningless, stressful and in an area that is ripe for replacement by technology. This makes me very hopeless about the future and any sense of self worth.
Our economies seek to maximize profits and GDP, not human wellbeing.
