I can tell you feel angry and I am not looking to have an emotional argument. The use of antidepressants for instance in Nordic countries is the highest on the planet.

Nope. Australia and Canada have higher use in the OECD countries. Finland is on the same level as UK and Belgium, lower than Sweden and Denmark.

How about Latvia, Belarus, Japan , Hungary and Lithuania? I see they have high if not the highest rates. Maybe higher than Finland. Causes given in general... Fall of the S.U, unemployment and that quite common alcohol reason.

Not sure what say North Korea 's is. I'd say anyway it would be tough getting stats out of that place.

You'd be surprised. France actually has the highest suicide rate in Western Europe. Sweden and Finland aren't that high. I don't know why they have a reputation for that, and how France manages to fool everyone.

Pale ghosts? I'm surprised you're not banned yet, that is offensive.

What has Finland done to some posters here that they just have to bring up how Russian or how suicidal or how depressing it is every now and then? It's confusing.
