1. Greenland
Annual suicides per 100,000 people: 83
According to government reports, 1 in every 5 people in Greenland tries to commit suicide at some point in their lifetimes. Alcoholism, depression, poverty, conflict-ridden relationships, dysfunctional parental homes, insomnia caused by incessant daylight, and the culture clash between the traditional culture and the encroaching western culture etc. are considered as contributing factors in the country’s shockingly high rate of suicides and suicide attempts.
