Tweet Young people in Armenia are committing suicide mainly because
of religious reasons, psychologist Mihrdat Madatyan told the reporters
today.
"Many young people enter different youth movements, for instance
Emo and commit suicide for the idea of the movement. There are young
people who commit it so "literary" that it becomes clear they have
either read or watched how it being done," the psychologist said.
The latter expressed conviction that mass media, films showing the
suicide cases essentially increase the number of suicide cases.
Continuing the idea of psychologist, sociologist Aharon Adibekyan
said there is even a blog for those who want to commit suicide giving
advices how to do it.
"One million 200 thousand people are annually committing suicide in
the world. This number significantly exceeds the rate of deaths from
any kind of infections. But we should note that the religion has a
great significance. For instance number of Protestants committing
suicides is bigger than of the Catholics. There are Muslim countries
were the suicides are not being registered," Adibekyan said, adding
that the number of people committing suicide increases in Armenia.
The sociologist said in 2011 some 195 people committed suicide
in Armenia.
Referring to the facts of suicides, Adibekyan said the main cause
of suicides of children in Armenia is indifference of parents in the
period of child's formation. Adibekyan said the adults are committing
suicide because of social issues.
"A man who comes home empty-handed while his child is hungry, cannot
bear such sufferings long and commits suicide," Adibekyan said. As
to women, according to him they are doing it usually after giving
birth to a child or after abortions.
