Suicide Problem in Japan

This article is amazing:  http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33622388/ns/health-mental_health/ 

There are several things here that jump out at me.
1.  30,000 deaths attributed to suicide?
2.  Installing blue lights with no research, no studies, just a "hope this helps".
3.  There is an underlying problem here that Japan should be worried about.

Here's my first attempt at getting a "crazy" rating on a post:  I really think there should be a suicide process to help people either commit suicide or not.  Some people would probably be better off.  Let's setup suicide centers where people go in and tell their story.  Counselors are on hand to tell them whether or not they really have it bad.  If they do, assisted suicide is available.  If they don't, then counselors could point out a different strategy, help them get on with a relatively good life.  I think worst case the suicide levels stay the same, but then we have a little more filtering on the people who do commit suicide and there's much less stress, cleanup, and delay.

Is there some other solution that would help more.  The goals:  fewer suicides, humane suicide, discrete suicide, counseling for people who are thinking about suicide.
