No, it’s not. Communist East Germany also had higher suicide rates during holidays - but it was a state secret there, because suicides couldn’t possibly be happening in the perfect “workers’ and peasants’ paradise”. They had the highest suicide rate in Europe, ahead of every capitalist country. Even performing research on the topic was forbidden.
The East German suicide rate of 31 per 100k population would be the fourth highest in the world today. Compare it to modern-day capitalist Germany (8.3), USA (14.5) or even South Korea (21.2).
