It follows that they would be more prone to suicide since, if all we are is just meat and bone and electricity and water, what difference does living or dying make?

On the contrary, as this life is all we get, it makes absolutely no sense to end it prematurely. Atheists would be more prone to want an incredibly long life, if anything.
What difference does it make? Well, I can keep living or I can cease to exist. You can easily see the difference.

That would follow only if your world viewpoint is accurate/true. As continued living is "prime directive" for most living creatures it doesn't follow.

EDIT: I forgot to mention highest rates of teen pregnancy, and poor health. Thanks for playing.
