Yes, during the Victorian era, individuals did commit suicide by slitting their wrists, among other methods. This period was marked by strict social norms and significant mental health challenges, which could contribute to such tragic decisions. While the act itself was not uncommon, societal attitudes toward suicide were often stigmatized, leading to a lack of open discussion about mental health and the factors contributing to these actions. Literature and reports from the time reflect both the prevalence of mental distress and the sometimes romanticized views of suicide.
