What data are you using please?
- southerntofu 3y agoThanks for asking, made me check. It seems teachers suicide data is not as drastic as hearsay has it, although from anecdata i believe depression is very widespread: https://blog.francetvinfo.fr/l-instit-humeurs/2019/11/09/chaque-semaine-en-france-un-prof-se-suicide.html https://blog.francetvinfo.fr/l-instit-humeurs/2019/11/09/cha... As for the cops, there are a few statistical/sociological studies. I may have exaggerated claiming they are the jobs with the highest suicide levels, but they do have higher suicide level than the general population. https://www.liberation.fr/checknews/les-policiers-se-suicident-ils-plus-que-le-reste-de-la-population-20210609_BO232RNMJJAEXCTM7WCIXC45VQ/ https://www.liberation.fr/checknews/les-policiers-se-suicide... Anecdotally, what the article doesn't mention is that, at least here in France, it's not uncommon for cops committing suicide to actually kill their wife and children before killing themselves... which i believe is a rather unique feat of their profession, but as there are no official stats on the topic you should take this claim with a grain of salt.
