Suicide, Second Edition

by Ron Salomon, M.D. and Christine Adamec

Description

Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people and the 11th leading cause of death for people of all ages. Family conflicts, legal or work problems, difficulty in school or social situations, and other stressful life events can all contribute to someone's choice to commit suicide. Physical or mental illnesses can also be significant factors. But the reasons behind suicide never justify the act. With treatment and help, allthese problems can be faced and overcome. Suicide explores the root causes of suicidal behavior, how to recognize it, and how those at risk can be aided.

Chapters include:

  • Suicide Case Studies
  • Impulses, Emotions, and Suicide
  • Anxiety and Suicide
  • Mood Disorders and Suicide
  • Suicide and Feeling "Different" in Teens
  • Suicide
