Grounds for Suicide as Estalished in Encounters with Physicians and Possibilities for prevention
Ivan Bogadi
Abstract
The survey is documented with suic'uie pounds as raftered in conversations with patients subsequent to attempted suicide.
In non-psychotic persons the most frequent causes are aggressivity (of the husband or wife), humiliation, violence, loneliness, alcoholism or divorce. This can all be ascribed, according to the author, to a lacking of spiritual values and is one of the characteristics of spiritual poverty of life under exclusion of love.
Psychotic persons chiefly state as grounds for attempted suicide: »It just came over me!«, or depression owing to their ailment. The author points out that such states can be prevented by healthy education through the mass media and suitable social conditions.
