Suicide Crisis in Iran
NCRI - Womens committee - 9 Sept 2024 - in Articles, in Women's News
<<Suicide Crisis in Iran: From Violence and Poverty to Pressure on
Medical Professionals
On World Suicide Prevention Day, we examine the growing suicide crisis
in Iran, particularly focusing on the challenges women and girls face
under the clerical regime. Many Iranian women and girls feel they have
no choice but to resort to suicide due to immense social and economic
pressures.
More than 13 people in Iran commit suicide daily, with the majority
between the ages of 15 and 35. According to the Iranian Ministry of
Health, 100,000 people attempted suicide in 2018. On average, 125
Iranians per 100,000 people attempt suicide, with six losing their
lives. (Persian Wikipedia on suicide in Iran) This year, beyond the
tragic suicides among young people and women, we are witnessing the
alarming phenomenon of suicides among medical residents (medical
students), nurses, and doctors.
Suicide Crisis Among Medical Residents
Dr. Noor Foroughi Nasab, a pediatric resident at Sadoughi Hospital in
Yazd, a city in central Iran, and a mother of a young child took her own
life during her residency in Yazd. (Iranian state-run website
Asriran.com - July 14, 2024) The suicide crisis among medical residents
in Iran has become a significant concern. Reports show that from
mid-March to June 2024, nine residents committed suicide. (The state-run
Rouydad24.ir - July 15, 2024) News about these incidents is often
delayed, as the Ministry of Health operates under a policy of
non-transparency. They attempt to minimize public awareness of the
crisis by withholding information. However, the combination of extreme
work pressure, intense stress, and low wages pushes medical students to
the brink of suicide.
In 2023 alone, 16 young residents committed suicide in less than a year.
(The state-run asriran.com - January 17, 2024) This number only includes
confirmed suicides reported by state media, while many others remain
unreported.
Dr. Noor Foroughi Nasab
Exploitation of Medical Residents in Hospitals
The operation of hospitals in Iran, which relies heavily on overworking
residents, exacerbates the pressure on medical students. The absence of
specialist doctors and the delegation of heavy responsibilities to
residents drive them to despair. Reza Lari-Pour, spokesperson for the
regime's Medical Council, acknowledged the residents' <hopelessness>
about their future careers, noting that what they currently experience
is far from what they expected before entering the medical field. This
official acknowledged that <A resident cannot afford to rent an
apartment in Tehran or cover their basic living expenses.> (Iranian
state news agency ILNA - May 11, 2024). Conversations with residents,
doctors, and other insiders reveal a "triangle of misery" involving
excessive workload, low wages, and mistreatment by superiors.
Simultaneously, residents face heavy financial penalties or requirements
for guarantors if they wish to drop out of the program. They are
required to work up to 15-night shifts a month, have no permission to
work independently, and must study intensively to pass grueling exams.
They receive no financial support. Additionally, the government imposes
heavy penalties on those who drop out of these fields, trapping young
residents in a cycle of exploitation, and pushing them toward suicide.
(The state-run asriran.com - January 17, 2024)

From left, Dr. Parastoo Bakhshi, Samira Al-Saeedi, Mitra Asoudeh and
Zahra Maleki Ghorbani
The Suicide Crisis Among Doctors: A Growing Concern
Iranian state media have described the increasing rate of suicides among
doctors as <the domino effect of physician suicides.> The state-run
Khabaronline.ir reported that suicide rates among medical professionals
have increased by 3.1 to 5 times. (June 6, 2024) Female doctors'
suicides in Iran have increased by 130%. The declining quality of life,
income, job security, and social standing contribute to these tragic
deaths. This crisis not only threatens the mental health of physicians
but could also lead to the collapse of Iran's healthcare system. (The
state-run donya-e-eqtesad.com - April 28, 2024)
Here are some recent examples:
On March 24, 2024, Parastoo Bakhshi, a cardiologist born in 1989,
committed suicide in Delfan, a town in Lorestan province (western Iran).
On April 25, 2024, Samira Al-Saeedi, a brilliant rheumatologist from
Tehran University of Medical Sciences and mother of one, took her own
life due to work-related pressures.
On May 1, 2024, Zahra Maleki Ghorbani, a 28-year-old doctor from Jask in
southern Iran (Hormozgan province), committed suicide.
Social media reports indicate that another doctor, Dr. Leila Modarres
Enshaei, also committed suicide in May 2024, though details remain
unclear.
In November 2023, Mitra Asoudeh, a general surgeon, took her life by
ingesting pills. She had been assaulted and insulted by the family of a
patient in the ICU of Bou-Ali Hospital in Marivan (northwestern Iran) in
April but did not file a complaint. After being convicted in court
following the family's lawsuit, she ended her life.
The Plight of Nurses: Hidden Suicide Statistics
Nurses in Iran endure even harsher conditions. Many are forced to work
120 hours of overtime for as little as 20,000 tomans (about $0.50) per
hour. If they protest, they face being transferred to remote areas.
Nurses in many cities are threatened if they speak out, and they have
been waiting for 17 years for the implementation of laws that would
regulate their wages. Sharifi Moghaddam, Secretary General of the House
of Nurses, admitted, <Suicide rates among nurses are much higher than
those among doctors, but the details cannot be shared.> He added,
<Studies from the 2000s showed that 35% of nurses experienced physical
violence, and 90% endured verbal abuse within six months, figures that
have likely increased significantly in recent years.> Additionally,
statistics related to nursing-such as suicides and emigration-are
classified and not publicly released. (The state-run eghtesaad24.ir -
July 25, 2024)
Shima Rameshk
Poverty and Violence: Key Factors in the Suicides of Young Women
Tragic cases of suicides among women and girls are not confined to any
specific group.
Government oppression and discrimination permeate all aspects of life,
from education and employment to deeply misogynistic laws. In addition
to pervasive poverty, these pressures-compounded by family stress under
a patriarchal system, domestic violence, and sexual abuse-often lead
Iranian women to desperate ends.
On July 8, 2024, Beery Mostafazadeh, a woman from Mahabad (northwestern
Iran), set herself on fire. A Kurdish woman who lived in isolation, she
was a worker at a mosque. After being fired, unable to cope with the
harshness of life, she took her life.
On July 9, 2024, Narin Hosseini from Saqqez hanged herself due to family
disputes with her husband.
On July 20, 2024, Soma Firoozi, a 16-year-old girl in Saqqez (a town in
western Iran), jumped to her death.
On the same day, sisters Elena (13) and Elisa (14) committed suicide by
jumping from the 19th floor of a building in the Beheshti Towers of
Hakimiyeh (northeastern Tehran). (The state-run Rokna.ir - July 21,
2024)
In that same month, Sayan Tavangari, 18, ended her life due to financial
struggles and the inability to pay for university expenses. (The
state-run tejartnews.com - July 14, 2024)
On July 21, 2024, a 25-year-old woman jumped from an overpass in central
Tehran. (The state-run arshehonline.com, July 22, 2024)
On July 23, 2024, a young woman named Diana Rahmani from the city of
Salas-e Babajani (western Iran) committed suicide after being forced
into marriage with a much older man.
On August 25, 2024, a 16-year-old girl in Delgan (southeastern Iran)
took her life by ingesting pills.
The 14-year-old Shima Rameshk, a victim of child marriage, took her own
life on Wednesday, August 28, 2024, in Marjanabad, Kurdistan.
These are just a few examples of the countless suicides occurring in
Iran under the clerical regime. According to the regime's Jam-e-Jam
newspaper (January 10, 2024), suicide is the fifth leading cause of
death among teenagers and young adults, with 52% of those committing
suicide being girls.
On August 28, 2024, the state-run Ham Mihan newspaper reported that
7,000 people had committed suicide in 2023, with twenty times that
number attempting suicide.>>
