As others have pointed out, this doesn't seem to align with data about suicides. I'll add to the list, chronic pain carries a much higher risk of suicide as well.
I'm sure there are many other factors and it's hard to point at any one as a real, root cause, but I don't think that existential dread or ennui or whatever you name it is the root cause either.
As an aside, if I were a poor, suicidal person, I'd probably take extreme issue with your comment as somehow implying that I'm not 'doing being suicidal right' or something like that, since I'm apparently being suicidal when I should be thinking about my three part-time jobs. (I'm not, I don't take personal offense, I'm just expressing how I suppose someone might see this mentality, and how it could be seen as insensitive. Although, these people do have bigger problems than internet comments, and any kind of correction here wouldn't fix that.)
