Regarding the issue of it being an easy way, I don't know if this is correct or the whole issue. I believe that humans need meaning in their lives, dreams, something to aspire for, etc. Without these suicide seems like a viable option at the moment for some.
Historically some cultures have even seen it as honourable or expected. What about those people who participate in extremely dangerous sports? Perhaps they are suicidal or have found the thing that gives them the high they require to keep on living?
