    I feel like there’s a suicide something or other all over Japan and it makes me sad. Just off the top of my head I can think of this, the suicide forest, the sea wall on Mitsubishi Island, nijino bridge, that one train station in Tokyo… Shits depressing

      The US has quite a few too, mainly big bridges or deserts. Not sure what popular Europe spots there are.

        The dorm where I lived during university was known as the Jump Tower.
        About one student per semester committed suicide by jumping off its roof.
