The article I chose is called 'Desperate Japanese head to suicide forest'. It says in this article that the forest is either known for beautiful views or suicide.
A man named Taro attempted suicide at the age of 46 in the forest because of money problems. He was fired from his job and he said ' you need money to survive.'
Japan already had one of the worlds highest suicide rates and it has increased due to the economic downturn. They have posted security cameras in the forest and now counelors roam the forest hoping to help the desperate.
