Aravot.am inquired from statistician Ani Kalashyan whether there is a growth in the number of suicides, or the topic is covered much more recently. “I think the socio-economic conditions that began since 90s, was really a heavy burden for the people, and some just could not withstand the burden and “broke”, saying “broke” I mean psychologically broken, which, why not, may lead to suicide,”- said the statistician. Ani Kalashyan believes that there is a certain growth in the number of suicides, but the media also have become active in covering these topics.” The foundation is in the change in moral psychological values, in any case, some 20-30 years ago youth and adults did not have the burden of what they have now. Everyday life, common values are changed, and it can lead people to unthinking actions.”- said Ani Kalashyan.
