Less human contact, less stress, less suicide.

Less human contact, less stress, less suicide.
- imwillofficial 6y agoYou are literally 100% wrong. Less human contact, more stress, more suicide. We are social creatures and crave human contact. (Generally of course.)
- ceejayoz 6y ago> more suicide Except the actual statistics linked upthread say otherwise thus far.
- YinglingLight 6y agoHN'ers follow experts like the religious follow prophets. HN'ers hold statistics to be incorruptible, as Christians do the Bible. Deluding yourself in thinking that the lockdowns haven't caused a rise in mental illnesses and suicides, deluding yourself into believing human physical contact has no importance. What won't you believe, if provided statistics from a 3-letter global organization?

- ceejayoz 6y ago"And experts worry those studies will show a spike in suicide..." The results weren't in, yet, when that article was written. The Lancet article is from April 2021; yours is from September 2020. Experts are sometimes surprised by results; it's also possible the whole-population numbers have some subsets that go up and other subsets that go down.
- imwillofficial 6y agoGreat point. Thanks for the correction.
