Depression and Suicide Going UP, Especially in 30s--from Japan

Hi again!! How are you doing? I'll deliver today's third column:

Last Year, the Number of People Who Committed Suicide was 66 people that is the worst record (It's just the official number). The serious generation is 30s who has symptoms like depression. Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare announced. JIJI Press has reported just now.

Those who suffer from stress on their jobs or overwork (of course, forced) choose to commit suicide. The number of those who actually took the action was worst in 2006 in Japan.

Though you may not know, I can say with much confidence that Japan's working conditions (in private companies) are so harsh. Working hour is quite long with huge stress that comes from many complicated reasons including the uniqueness of Japanese culture, I suppose (It seems that so many youngsters begin to show the strong resistance to it.).

Seemingly, the economy of Japan is recovering now, but reality is far from it, and the reality of recovery is supported by so much sacrifice of general citizens.

Thank you for visiting <(_ _)> and Have a great day!!
