I look at it with extra scruitiny, as I saw quite a few times diffent reserach results, e.g. https://www.aappublications.org/news/2020/12/16/pediatricssuicidestudy121620 https://www.aappublications.org/news/2020/12/16/pediatricssu... "Results showed recent suicidal ideation was 1.60 and 1.45 times higher in March and July 2020, respectively, than in March and July 2019. Odds of recent suicide attempt were 1.58, 2.34, 1.75 and 1.77 times higher in February, March, April and July 2020 than the same months in 2019, respectively." Ideation and attempt is not the same as death, but it is pretty alarming on its own. Additionally, I would expect that the longer lockdown gets, the higher suicide rate. Social isolation may take time to "kick in", in the meantime more people got out of business (or run in other serious troubles), and (likely) there was more hope in the first months for things to be over soon.
