Which type of suicide does not provide clear social regulation and can lead to despair?

Anomic suicide occurs during periods of significant social instability and is characterized by a lack of clear social regulations and norms. This type of suicide is typically associated with feelings of confusion and anxiety, which can arise when individuals find themselves disconnected from societal expectations or values. For instance, during times of rapid social change (such as economic collapses or sudden transformations in societal structures), an individual may feel lost and unsure about their place or purpose in society. This absence of regulation can lead to feelings of despair, as the individual's needs for social order and connection remain unmet.

In contrast, egoistic suicide is related to the individual's lack of social integration, altruistic suicide arises from excessive regulation and a sense of duty towards others, while fatalistic suicide results from excessive regulation and oppression, where individuals feel trapped by strict social norms. Each of these types reflects different aspects of the relationship between individual well-being and social structure, further illustrating the importance of social contexts in shaping experiences of despair and suicidal behavior.
