Can we expect a rise in suicide rates after the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak?

2019 (Covid-19) pandemic have struck humans worldwide and forced rapid changes that could never possibly be imagined. Unfortunately, the number of deaths due to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and its many effects will be around for years. Both direct and indirect conditions will haunt our lives, at least in the near term. Suicide, as a multifactorial phenomenon, is significantly influenced by events that destabilize some of the pillars of daily life, such as family bonds, job satisfaction, economic stability, recreational life and well-being, to name just a few. There is no doubt that suicide risk is one of the most tragic of the possible effects of the pandemic. We often refer to mental pain for a phenomenological understanding of the suicidal mind and the pandemic has certainly influenced the degree of sufferance among individuals, posing an additional burden to those already suffering.
