expert Kamo Vardanyan told the reporters on Monday.
He said if the number of suicides is up to ten per 100,000 capita,
it is not considered a big number, if 20 it is problem, above 20
is critical.
The expert said in Armenia the number is 20 while in Europe it exceeds
40, the specialist said. The expert claimed the state should contribute
to the prevention of cases.
"It is necessary to educate the public while the TV is washed up with
suicide topics, making sensational news of it. Besides, the state
should work out a special strategy of prevention of suicides," he said.
The expert believes the role of the people is also big. They should
be more attentive toward the people surrounding them.
"The suicidal intention may last for a year and a half. First, negative
thought are coming, in case of corresponding conditions the intention
turns to thoughts and the death becomes the only way out.
During this period the behavior changes, a person listens to sad music,
appears in depression," Vardanyan explained.

ecological, social, etc.
