00CAUSES OF SUICIDE 02br
02br
00The usual method of studying causes of suicide is through a "psychological postmortem", in which information used to establish a profile of the dead person is gathered from several sources about the individual's background and the events leading up to the suicide. 02br
02br
00METHODOLOGICAL PROBLEMS IN STUDYING CAUSES 02br
02br
00There are many problems encountered in attempting to study the causes of suicide: 02br
00•Information has to be gleaned months or years after the suicide has occurred and may therefore be inadequate and inaccurate. 02br
00•The difficulty of using parents or siblings as informants because it is likely to be distressing for parents to answer questions about their dead son or daughter. 02br
02br
00BACKGROUND FACTORS 02br
02br
00Family Background 02br
02br
00Broken homes 02br
00It is well established that adults who kill themselves often come from broken homes or unhappy families. Family disruption, by death, separation, or divorce, is common among young suicides. Moreover, the prevalence of suicide is related to the degree of geographical mobility and family disruption found in these societies. For example, the lowest suicide rate was found in North Sudan, where there was a structure of close Moslem family units; on the other hand, the highest suicide rate was found in the Indian reservation where there was a lack of family stability. 02br
02br
00Family History of Psychiatric Disorder and Suicidal Behavior 02br
00Psychiatric disorder in family members might contribute to a young person's suicide in any one of several ways. First, there may be a genetic predisposition to depression or other serious mental disorders. Second, living with depressed relatives may mean that the young person lacks affections and feels rejected. Third, a depressive disorder in a parent or older sibling might serve as a model for the individual, encouraging the adoption of a morbid or hopeless attitude. Finally, an adolescent may find it intolerable living with a parent or sibling with a major psychiatric disorder. 02br
02br
00Psychiatric Disorders 02br
00Depression, excessive fears or school refuse 02br
02br
00Physical Disorders 02br
00Although several studies have suggested that only rarely a major contributory factor in adolescent suicide attempters have problems with their physical health such as asthma, fits and tonsillitis. 02br
02br
00Previous Suicide Attempts 02br
00Anyone who has made a previous attempt at harming himself or herself is always considered at high risk of another attempt. The previous attempts are more common among females than males. 02br
02br
02br
00Intellectual Level 02br
00There has been very little investigation of the intelligence of children and adolescents who commit suicide. The appraisal of the hopelessness of a situation by young people and the planning of a fatal attempt may require considerable intellectual ability. 02br
02br
00WHY HAS SUICIDE BECOME MORE COMMON AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE? 02br
02br
00Changes in the Social Environment 02br
00There is no doubt that the social environment of young people has undergone vast changes during the past three decades. One change has been a reduction in family ties. Loss of family supports is becoming more common and often occurs at an early age. 02br
02br
00Greater Acceptability of Suicide as an Option 02br
00A further factor that might have influenced attitudes to suicide is the increasingly free discussion of the topic in the media. People who have entertained suicidal ideas, which are common among young people, but who would not normally have carried out a suicidal act, may be encouraged to act on these ideas because of the media reports. 02br
02br
00Increased Use of Medication and Drugs 02br
00Increased prescribing of psychotropic medicines might contribute to an increase in suicide because of the resulting relatively low thresholds to taking drugs to deal with stress. 02br
00Drug abuse among the young has also become very much more common in recent years. This has contributed to the increase in suicidal deaths, because of two factors. The first is that drug addiction often leads to social disintegration and depression. The second is that deaths from overdoses involving illicit drugs are common. 0-
