I've heard that Washington State has the highest depression and suicide rate.? |
Travel Info Does anybody know if this is true? And if it is, is it from all the rain? Travel Tips To answer your question and every other myth question for the uninformed about the evergreen state. The following states have the highest suicide rate top ten: 01 Nevada [M] (01) 02 Alaska [P] (02T) 03 Montana [M] (02T) 04 Wyoming [M] (05) 05 New Mexico [M] (04) 05 Idaho [M] (12) 07 South Dakota [WNC] (07) 08 Arizona [M] (08) 09 Oregon [P] (09) 10 Colorado [M] (06) 11 Oklahoma [WSC] (15) 12 Utah [M] (13) 13 West Virginia [SA] (10) 14 Florida [SA] (11) 15 Arkansas [WSC] (22) 16 Tennessee [ESC] (20T) 17 Missouri [WNC] (14) 18 Washington [P] (16) 19 Kentucky [ESC] (23T) 19 North Dakota [WNC] (28T) 21 Indiana [ENC] (23T) 21 Mississippi [ESC] (26T) 21 Vermont [NE] (39) 24 Kansas [WNC] (20T) 25 North Carolina [SA] (25T) 26 Louisiana [WSC] (27) 27 Georgia [SA] (30T) 27 Iowa [WNC] (38) 29 Delaware [SA] (18T) 29 Alabama [ESC] (28T) 31 Pennsylvania [MA] (30T) 32 New Hampshire [NE] (30T) 32 Hawaii [P] (40T) 34 South Carolina [SA] (18T) 35 Virginia [SA] (25T) 36 Wisconsin [ENC] (33T) 37 Maine [NE] (17) 38 Texas [WSC] (38) 39 Nebraska [WNC] (36T) 39 Californiat [P] (40T) 41 Michigan [ENC] (33T) 42 Maryland [SA] (43) 43 Minnesota [WNC] (42) 43 Ohio [ENC] (44) 45 Massachusetts [NE] (48) 46 Connecticut [NE] (46) 47 Illinois [ENC] (45) 47 New York [MA] (49T) 49 Rhode Island [NE] (47) 50 New Jersey [MA] (49T) 51 Washington, DC [SA] (51) Caution: Annual fluctuations in state levels combined with often relatively small populations can make these data highly variable. The use of several years' data is preferable to conclusions based on single years alone. 24.5 Also Annual rainfall for major cities in U.S. Boston MA 41.5% Chicago, IL 36.3% Houston TX 47.8 % Miami, Fl 58.5 % Seattle, Wa 36.1 % Also the Seattle area according to mens health magazine in 06 was rated nations fittest city. Lets use our common sense if people are always depressed, they are not going to exercise. Seattle is also tops amongst american cities in people with bachelor's degrees ages 25 and up. Ignorance is not bliss!!!!! Others Interesting. I'd like to know. Your probably right. Can you imagine the stress of some of the peoples jobs??? Then you know they need counseling and they say Doctors have the highest rate of suicides.. When I looked it up on the web, it's Nevada. I could believe that, but it could also be false. Washington is seperated by a huge mountain range (cant think of the name right now, lol) and it doesnt rain all the time in all parts of the state. I lived in Spokane for 6 years, its on the opposite side of the mountains from Seattle. We got very average rainfall there, about as much as we get where I now live (Green Bay, WI). So, half of the state doesnt get as much rainfall as Seattle and the other towns on the same side, so if the statement is true, it cant all be due to the rain..... Yes, and it isn't as much from the rain as the gloomy overcast days that can go on and on and on. There is even a bridge in Seattle that is nicknamed the suicide bridge. Oh trust me, after I moved to Seattle, I went to Las Vegas for a while. What I wouldn't have given to have gone back. |
