รายละเอียด / Details:

Suicide behavior is defined as any self destructive act in which a person intend to kill him or herself. There are some debating issues about suicide in young person. According to Piaget's cognitive level of children, concepts of death in very person are premature. Younger children think in egocentric term. Suicidal children may wish to die and think that if they overdose of sedatives it will make them die but the concept of death is to go th sleep. Some assumed that children might not be not be considered to be suicide if they do not understand that death is final. But this assumption should be wrong because self destructive behavior has been observed as an outcome of children's intent to kill themselves. This paper reviews sucide in area of epidemiology, methods of suicide, and associated factors with suicide, repetitive suicide, and suicide prevention.
