Aug. 5, 2016 (LifeSiteNews.com) Homosexuals who marry each other are almost three times more likely to commit suicide than their heterosexual counterparts, even in very gay-friendly Sweden, according to a study published in the May issue of the European Journal of Epidemiology.
The authors of the study noted that social intolerance of homosexual behavior could not so easily be blamed for increased suicide risk, given that Sweden is known for its accepting attitude towards same-sex relationships.
Even in a country with a comparatively tolerant climate regarding homosexuality such as Sweden, same-sex married individuals evidence a higher risk for suicide than other married individuals, the authors note.
The study, Suicide in married couples in Sweden: Is the risk greater in same-sex couples? used the government of Swedens detailed databases to compare a population of over six thousand homosexual married couples to the larger population of heterosexual couples who married during the period between 1996 and 2009, following them until 2011.
The study found that participants in homosexual marriages had an overall 2.7 times greater chance of suicide than participants in heterosexual marriages, with the true value having a 95% probability of falling somewhere between 1.5 and 4.8.
Homosexual men in same-sex marriages were found to have a higher elevated risk (2.9) than women (2.5).
The studys results are similar to numerous other studies in recent years that have found a strong relationship between homosexual behavior and a variety of negative psychological outcomes, even in countries that are very accepting of homosexual behavior.
Studies done of homosexuals in the Netherlands, which is the country most accepting of homosexual behavior in the world, have found that homosexuals suffer from significantly higher rates of mood disorders, anxiety disorders, substance abuse disorders, suicide attempts, eating disorders, and panic attacks.
The behavior of homosexuals, which often involves high levels of promiscuity and instability in their interpersonal relationships, results in rates of 10-20% HIV infection of homosexuals living in urban areas, as well as elevated incidence of herpes and the cancer-causing Epstein-Barr virus, syphilis, anal cancer, and other diseases.
Yes.
Your answer is short, pithy, clear and on the money.

I’d probably jump off a bridge if I woke up to a husband every morning, either on me or under me.
Of course! I’d kill myself too if I had to be married with another dude.
Do they finally conclude its them, and not the rest of world, who is delusional?
That they really are a genetic anomaly and perhaps should not have went to such extremes to pretend that there is no difference between heterosexual marriage and procCREATION and that adopting someone else kids, and brain washing them, is not the not the optimal situation?
Now that they can not argue they are special, and heroes and fighters ...now they are not modiocre and perhaps even more boring than a true heterosexual union... they conclude that life is no longer worth living???
Just speculation.
It is still the intolerant Christians’ fault for not embracing their lifestyle.
Poor Lost Souls! Pray that there will be an awaking and thus many in Error and Sin’s will be saved from the grasp of Satan. Remember Satan’s goal is souls, once they are in his grasp he cares not when the depart for their final trip into Eternal Hell!
Imaging the Hell these souls will experience, Living in the sins of flesh and abnormal behavior, then to be so desperate for and end to their Hell on Earth they do even worst by taking their own Lives only to compound their Sins to even greater heights and even Greater torments in Hell for Eternity!
Pray for the souls whom still have a chance to Repent and Correct their Lives and Cleans their Souls!
Obviously the answer is to punish more Christians.
Pray America wakes
In general, I find suicide sad, regardless of sexual orientation.
However, when it comes to those willing to compel photographers, florists, bakers, and others to participate in a gay parody of marriage against their will, I approve of their decision to make the world better by removing themselves. We are better off without their evil thuggish behavior.
Banish this article!!! This news is not fit to print, can it!!!! Homophobic writers and investigators, everyone!!!
How is engaging in acts that lead to deadly disease NOT suicidal?

Now,they can not argue they are special, and heroes and fighters ... They discover they ARE mediocre and perhaps even more boring than a true heterosexual union... they conclude that life is no longer worth living???
Just speculation.
Playing with feces can’t be good for mental health.
Those &#@*! Christians!!
Gay “married” men continue to have additional partners outside of marriage. They don’t live like heterosexual couples. One study in Cali revealed that 100% of the couples had at least one additional partner a year.
This is the sham. They didn’t make marriage more “inclusive” they just watered down its meaning. These aren’t marriages, even if you’re legally tied. So I’m not surprised that “happiness” is not a fruit of this lifestyle. You can’t have your own kids, you still behave promiscuously, you have no real marriage, etc.. This is a path to loneliness. How many get to an age where they realize they’ve not built a life...and it’s not fun being an “old gay guy”, you’re not wanted.
How is a high suicide rate surprising?
Which explains who was primarily behind the movement to legalize gay marriage.....LAWYERS! They're making a killing on this.
Think about it....it is against Natural Law; it is against Science, Logic and Common Sense and Flourishing (God’s Design of human body and the ability for children to understand Reality and be humanized (have loving mother/father paradigm so they embed an understanding of Natural Law (Truth)).
Children removed from the Natural Family (reality/truth) and put into any warped system or institution will be warped-—and it will hurt their emotional and intellectual growth and connections to past (history/traditions/family) which will truncate and warp future perceptions. Just nursing increases IQ as does the skin on skin connections to mother which is the most humanizing in a child’s environment. Bonding is essential to intellectual and emotional flourishing. Attachment insecurity always destroys children and all future relationships.
Homosexual “marriage” (oxymoron/lie) is total nihilism (Culture of Death) and destroys biological connections with children (which is demonic). It basically normalizes buying and selling babies and denying babies their Natural Rights and parents their Natural Duty which includes raising their own biological offspring. (Just Laws ALWAYS promote Natural Rights of babies and adults (but now it is demonic laws which deny Natural Rights).
It also is habituating demonic, vile use of the human body—which degrades others and self and equates Life to Excrement (it is Satanic—the Babylonian Rites of Ba’al worship is and was sodomy with children in orgies). Homosexuals are people devoid of virtue (inner control of base desires) which makes them slaves to vice. Homosexuality is the warping of the intrinsic identity of a person-—so deeply warped it will warp ALL REALITY——the eye that alters, alters all (Blake)....and we will get total irrational laws (unconstitutional). Without Reason, there is no Justice possible and children who are denied their Natural parents will be warped at the earliest age-—to make it impossible for them to understand Truth/Reality (have correct emotions tied to Truth), and be virtuous. Without Virtue, we will be slaves only.
The emotions embedded will be extremely sexist in any homosexual culture-—very much like the brutal, sexist, pederast culture of Sparta——it was the Athenians who protected their sons from the sodomites and who despised the culture of Sparta. Sparta created nothing but wars. Stoicism came out of Athens which is the bridge to Christianity. Pederasty was still considered “ok” for Athenians but the start of recognizing it as “evil” just occurred when it was their sons.....as slavery was still considered a Fact of Life in Athens and Sparta.
Christianity created the most brilliant, just, humane system of ethics. It is why it flourished-—children were protected and kept innocent so they couldn’t be warped by satanists/pederasts.
Sounds like demonic possession to me. Homosexuals are afflicted and attacked SPIRITUALLY.
If anyone has noticed, the most hateful people on the planet are militant homosexuals AND Muslims. Christians are the #1 Target of Queers, and Jews are #1 target of Muslims.
Perhaps being homosexual already increases one’s chances of suicide whether or not they claim to be “married” to their partner.
