I am a fellow Hungarian who tried to commit suicide multiple times before. I can’t say anything scientific, but it is not all that great to live here - I would say, that about 80% of my acquaintances hate to live in this country. That could contribute to it. Sometimes we joke about ,,depression being in the Hungarian blood” because of the long periods… Citeste mai departe of time our nation was oppressed for. We are also rather dramatic people…

Suicide is most common here among young people, as all around the world (the average age when people kill themselves is between 15 and 30). I first tried to do it in middle school and also had a friend taken into a mental ward because of her multiple attempts when she was 12. It only got worse in high school: we did a little survey, and of 96 people in my grade, about 40 said that they wanted to die, 21 said they used to do / do self-harm, and 12 tried to die before. We all made it to graduation alive, but nearly everyone knew somebody who killed themselves.

There IS a stigma around suicide, but it is not present in the younger folks, they (should I say we?) kind of have a culture around it. Sadly, it is considered cool to want to die, and bloody wrists are quite the “aesthetic”.

The suicide rates in Hungary were supposedly twice as big in the 90s than they are now…

@dr: eu cred ca mesajul a fost inteles chiar daca din nestiinta n am scris corect

@andi: incearca totusi sa fii mai diplomat ca eu n am scris in ideea de a te jigni pe tine si pe mama ta cu toate ca la nivelul tau de inteligenta nu cred ca te ai simti jigniti orice as zice

@Ironman: de când atâta Diplomație cu sălbaticii și animalele? Ești prost rău și tu ca stai capra mai rău ca caprele.

@Ironman:

Da-i prostului și lupului ce-și schimba doar parul nu și năravul o mâna ca ți-o apuca cu oua cu tot. Și nu vorbesc prostii, mai bine te ferești cat vezi cu ochii de asemenea ipochimene sifilitice.

@Ironman: nici eu nu am zis nimic de mama ta, doar de limba materna, doar ca mintea ta nu duce atat sa faca diferenta intre limba materna si gaura din care ai iesit.....intelegi?

@andi: Ma handi, mergi la centru sa iti primesti coaja de pita pt comentariile tale. Incepi cu jigniri si te astepti ca ceilalti sa jigneasca inapoi numa cat ai jignit tu? AI baiuri nenea... recomand terapeut pt tine

@andi: adevarul este ca posibilitatea de a fi anonim online, ofera prea multa libertate si putere celor care n ar trebui sa aiba parte de asa ceva
