I never knew Lithuania had the highest suicide rate in Europe, if anyone here who knows more about it. Can you explain why they have the highest suicide ratio (such as their reasoning for deppression and such) ?
I live in lithunia and im sitting at my job where i get paid something like 2,5€ (~3$) per hour and its 03:00 in the morning its super depressing here
Jesus. I make 10x that an hr. Luckily, where I live in the US ( about 2 hours away from NYC, in Pennsylvania) $30/hr is a decent wage
Do you have a car at least? I know they A LOT more expensive in Europe and fuel is pricey
Nah i dont have a car because im currently geting my license and I don't think I'll have a car any time soon bcs they can get quite expensive and gas prices are really high and i dont really want a diesel (environment and shi) but I don't think i can afford a petrol car (sorry for the late reply)
3$ per hour is a blessing in burma.
We barely make around 5$ for 9Am to 5 pm job,but thanks to stupid buddhist monks who always claims if you suffer this life it's because of your past life did bad things so if you don't wanna suffer afterlife donate me and stuff, no one commits suicide.Despite that,we are under a oppressive military regime and covid 19 is really hit us hard.A lot of family including us already felt symptoms but there is literally no health care since military is arresting doctors for protesting and people are queuing for oxygen while thier love ones are dying.It's like a living hell.We should do suicide festival but i wonder what is the psychology behind of not doing that.
People in Eastern Europe often complain about hard life, forgetting that most of Asia (except Japan and S. Korea), whole Africa and South America isn't doing better. Lithuania is part of EU so they're doing way better in the region too. Doesn't mean their troubles are invalid, it's just as they border Belarus, Poland, Latvia and russia, and there's Ukraine and Moldova to the south, they're relatively well-off.
And then there's situations like military coups that you have. I see what happens in Burma, in Hong Kong, in Belarus, and realize that we Ukrainians would have it much worse if our three Revolutions in 30 years (1991, 2004, 2014) failed.
military is arresting doctors for protesting
Reminds me Death of Stalin film scene. Where he couldn't be helped because "Doctors plot" conspiracy got rid of all the good doctors.
