Despair at losing one's job

(University of the Basque Country ) In an exhaustive study of the evolution in suicide rates in the municipality of Barakaldo during the 2003-2014 period, a UPV/EHU lecturer in psychiatry uncovers the social groups in which there was an increase in the number of suicides owing to loss of employment. Studies of this type should help to stop suicide being a taboo subject and to instruct the population to enable them to spot warning signs displayed by people who might be harbouring suicidal thoughts.
