Not to politicize this overly much but I’ve had two people I know reasonably well loose a family member to suicide since Covid lockdowns started.
First was the son off a friend who was a hugely successful YouTube content creator with a channel called talking kitty cat. Kid was early 30’s and pulling down deep six figures from YouTube but three or so months into the lockdown crap he just couldn’t take the isolation and fear and put one through the brain.
Left a note that he didn’t want to live in a world without human contact or such.
Second is a fellow from my church who’s father ended it on his birthday dec 1, he was fed up with the same kind of lockdowns and where he saw politics and our nation in general headed.
Sorry to hear about your neighbors, I think all the fear of Covid and lack of human comfort as well as some people watching their futures become unsure is just more than a lot of people can take.
