Abstract [eng] |
Mental disorders, previous suicide attempts and addiction to alcohol or tranquillisers are considered the factors that may have the biggest influence on the phenomenon of suicide. 47% of suicide attempters were addicted to acohol or used it intensively (Goldney 2002; Ingvar, 1997). Furthermore, attitudes towards suicide are also one of the factors that may have influence on self-destructive thoughts or decision to end one's own life (Gailienė, 2000). More positive attitudes towards suicide may have impact on mat alcohol abusers quite often choose voluntary death or try to commit suicide - greater tolerance of suicidal behaviour can enhance the probability to choose it (Žemaitienė, 2000; Gailienė, 2000).... |
