DEVELOPMENT’S ILLNESS (1of 3)
SYMPTOMS:
Are these contradictions matter of chance?
GDP doesn’t asure psychological well-being. As this graph shockingly shows, there are more developed countries (purple) with high suicide rates, in clear contrast to more undeveloped countries (Blue) with low suicide rates
[Note that these charts miss overall on many undeveloped countries, mostly african. This premises are stated as far as the countries shown]
Gender Ratio: on average, men commit suicide 2.8 times more than women
Women Tendency: North Asian Countries. Men Tendency: Baltic countries
Average Minimum:Islands, Mediterranean, Africa, South America
Average Maximum: Northern and Eastern Europe, North-East Asia
⇒Studies have backed up implications of cultural points of view and harsh climate conditions on psychological wellbeing
Sociability Contradictions
Focusing on North-east Asia (following the example of South Korea) we find this is a region with high living standards and with one of the highest technological and broadband development (COMMUNICATION), yet, they are also among the highest rates of population with mental illnesses that seek ISOLATION and even suicide.
The African continent along with other Latin-American countries are in comparison less developed, yet, mental illnesses as depression and suicide are rare, exceeding illnesses and deaths due to crime, epidemics, poverty and precarious livelihoods.
