One of the sad associations with Atheism in to often they have no hope or ways to ether be comforted or offer comfort to others.

While Atheists are quite able to give practical help often time in crises one needs something deeper more meaningful.

Here the Atheist might come up empty for others ... and for himself prompting him to do even the unthinkable.

Here is what one professional found in his research.

Religiously unaffiliated subjects had significantly more lifetime suicide attempts and more first-degree relatives who committed suicide than subjects who endorsed a religious affiliation. Unaffiliated subjects were younger, less often married, less often had children, and had less contact with family members. Furthermore, subjects with no religious affiliation perceived fewer reasons for living, particularly fewer moral objections to suicide. In terms of clinical characteristics, religiously unaffiliated subjects had more lifetime impulsivity, aggression, and past substance use disorder. No differences in the level of subjective and objective depression, hopelessness, or stressful life events were found.[/i
