Disturbing surge in female suicides in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan: A rise in depression and suicide attempts among Afghan women is linked to Taliban's restrictive policies against women. School closures, limited access to education and work, and a mandate for a male chaperone in public have contributed to a growing mental health crisis among Afghan women. Mental health clinics report a 40-50% increase in female patients, with approximately 10% resorting to suicide. Despite global trends, around 80% of suicide attempts in Afghanistan now involve women.💔😡😡😡
