Solitary confinement sounds like the ultimate form of boredom. If you were locked in it with no hope of release, there's a good chance you'd eventually start looking for ways to commit suicide.
Most people don't commit suicide.

Eh, not so much. Most solitary confinement in modern prisons is temporary and prisons have polices to prevent suicide (that are not perfect, but are still effective to some degree). Solitary confinement, even as it exists, definitely increases suicidal ideation.
Like suicide prevention ideation does not mean all people in solitary confinement want to commit suicide. I venture to argue that most people won't.
