抄録	This paper is a revised version of the report entitled “Living with Suicidal Feelings: COVID-19 and Suicide Care,” presented at the Kansai Sociological Association’s 73rd Symposium on “Imagining a Future Society Embracing Care: Proposals for a Post-COVID Social Theory.” Section 1 provides an overview of the paper. Section 2 outlines the general state of suicide prevention in Japan. Section 3 examines how suicidal feelings and suicide are excluded from modern society in terms of both social institutions and social interactions, referring to E. Durkheim’s discussion of the culte de la personne, E. Goffman’s discussion of interaction ritual and A. Hochschild’s discussion of feeling rule. Section 4 clarifies the ambivalence surrounding suicidal feelings and the double meaning of the utterance “I want to die” based on Durkheim’s discussion of the sanctity of the individual in general and eliminating the transgressor. Section 5 draws on interviews with staff of a suicide prevention nonprofit organization (NPO) and discusses how people with suicidal feeling can be included in contemporary society beyond the paradox of the worship of the individual in general. Section 6 presents a perspective on whether not talking about death in general, out of respect and deference, also leads to the exclusion of suicidal feelings. This study visualizes how and why modern society excludes suicidal feelings and suicide, while at the same time making visible the activities of those who have tried to create a space in society for the expression and acceptance of suicidal feelings. By illustrating the conflict between the exclusion of suicidal feelings provoked by veneration of the individual in general and the acceptance of suicidal feelings provoked by respect for the individual in particular, the paper considers how it is possible to include people with suicidal feelings in society while respecting human life.
