      People are farworse off (even more prone to suicide, Durkheim famously evinced [1897/1966]) whenthey are not firmly integrated within social groups and societies that have strong, cohesivenorms (expected behaviors) and values (beliefs)

      I feel like reason for this is because it allows the individual something to ground themselves to as well as gives them guideline or bases to form a sense of "self".
