Abstract:

In this chapter, the authors cover suicide, both generally and more specifically related to firearms. First, they review suicide-related terminology and definitions. Understanding suicide is critically important, especially when considering the professions that interact with potentially suicidal persons with access to firearms, including civilians as well as law enforcement and military personnel. Second, grounded in the best available data concerning and research associated with suicide, the authors provide an overview of various theoretical perspectives as to why people die by suicide and present key risk and protective factors in this regard. In this context, they review firearm-related suicide statistics, risk and protective factors, and relevant laws and critique the limitations of available data and policies. They also outline considerations related to suicide risk assessment, management, and prevention. Finally, they provide various case examples of firearm-related suicides to highlight the need to develop best practices concerning suicide risk and firearm safety.

Abstract:

Attempted and completed suicide among older adults are global public health challenges of escalating significance. This chapter presents epidemiological data on such behaviours, and addresses the risk factors in the domains of mental health, personality, physical health and functioning, social factors (e.g. life events and social support) and neurobiological mechanisms, as derived from retrospective (mainly psychological autopsy [PA] studies) and prospective case-control studies. Suicide prevention initiatives in the elderly have taken a great stride forward in the past decade based on better understanding of the risk and protective factors. Given the complex, multi-determined nature of suicidal behaviours, further improvements will require sustained collaborations across clinicians, researchers, health administrators and politicians in different nations. Furthermore, older males are generally at higher risk of suicide than females; they tend to use more lethal means in their suicide acts, are more susceptible to the effects of bereavement and widowhood, and respond less favourably to comprehensive suicide prevention programs. Further research on the gender differences of suicidal behaviours is urgently needed, to understand the different underlying psychopathological mechanisms, and to adequately address the healthcare needs of older men, the largest group of completed suicides across the world.

Abstract:

Homicide-suicide entails a homicide followed by the perpetrator’s suicide within one week. The incidence of homicide-suicide in the US was 0.23% per 100,000 in 2013 (about 5% of all US homicides). In Western Europe and other low violence countries, such as Japan, homicide-suicides make up a much higher proportion of all homicides. Subtypes are filicidal, spousal (including jealous and declining health subtypes), familial, and extrafamilial homicide-suicide. Spousal homicide-suicides are the most common, yet extrafamilial homicide-suicides receive the most media attention, despite their rarity. Related phenomena include mass murder, victim-precipitated suicide (“suicide by cop”), politically motivated homicide-suicide, and suicide in violent offenders. We review several conceptual models of the etiology of homicide-suicide, namely developmental, dynamic, biological, and cognitive models, and draw implications from the current state of knowledge about homicide-suicide.

Abstract:

This book examines the phenomenon of work suicides in France and asks why, in the present historical juncture, conditions of work can push individuals to take their own lives. During the 2000s, France experienced what commentators have described as a ‘suicide epidemic’, whereby increasing numbers of workers in the face of extreme pressures of work, chose to take their own lives. This book analyses a corpus of testimonial material linked to 66 suicide cases across three large French companies during the period from 2005 to 2015. A key aim is to consider what the extreme and subjective experiences of self-killing narrated in suicide letters can tell us about the contemporary economic order and its impact on flesh and blood experiences of work. What do rising work suicides tell us about conditions of human labour in the 21^st century? Does neoliberal economics condition a desire for suicide? How do suicidal individuals describe the causes and motivations of their self-killing? Combining critical perspectives from sociology, history, testimony studies, economics, cultural studies and public health, the book raises critical questions about the human costs of the shift to a finance-driven neoliberal order and its everyday effects within the localised spaces of the French workplace.

Abstract:

Suicide is a significant concern for clinicians working with clients experiencing major depressive disorder (MDD). Previous research has indicated that MDD is the diagnosis more frequently associated with suicide, with approximately two-thirds of those who die by suicide suffering from depression at the time of death by suicide. This chapter reviews data regarding the prevalence of suicidal behavior among those with depressive disorders. It then reviews risk factors for suicide ideation, self-injury, and death by suicide. Finally, the chapter provides an empirical overview of treatment studies aimed at decreasing risk for suicide, as well as an overview of several recent treatment approaches showing promise in the reduction of suicidal behavior.

Abstract:

All psychiatric assessments should include screening for recent suicidal ideation and past suicide behavior. The Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) provides a reliable objective assessment of suicide risk. A history of past suicide attempts is a risk factor for future suicide, and risk is increased by more serious, more frequent, or more recent attempts. Over 90% of individuals who die by suicide have at least one psychiatric disorder. Patients with schizophrenia, alcohol and other substance use disorders, and borderline and antisocial personality disorders are at increased risk for suicide. Familial transmission of suicide risk appears to occur independent of the familial risk for psychiatric disorders; impulsivity seems to be an inherited trait that makes individuals more vulnerable to suicide. Hospitalization should be considered if suicidal ideation is present in a patient who is psychotic or who has a history of past attempts, particularly if near lethal, and may be the safest option in patients with other contributing medical conditions, limited family or social support, or lack of access to timely outpatient follow-up.

Abstract:

Suicide is a major public health and mental health challenge and claims as many as one million lives worldwide each year. It is also an individual tragedy with devastating consequences for family members, friends, and others who have been bereaved. Attempted suicide and suicidal behaviour are even more common. In recent years there has been an enormous amount of research and a growing realization that suicide can be prevented. There are approaches that we can use at societal and individual levels which will potentially save lives. This book provides a comprehensive but concise overview of the field of suicide prevention. It places suicide in a historical context before highlighting its complexity and possible causes. It goes on to discuss public health strategies and policy as well as psychological and pharmacological approaches to treatment and prevention. It also includes guidance for assessing people who present to services with suicidal thoughts or behaviours, along with a number of case vignettes. Suicide bereavement and technology-based approaches to intervention are discussed, and frequently asked questions on topics as diverse as enquiring about suicidal thoughts, rational suicide, and suicide terrorism are answered. This text is practical in its focus but strongly evidence-based and will be relevant to all those with an interest in preventing suicide.

Abstract:

Written by a clinical psychologist and illustrated with vignettes from the author's experience, this book offers a clear understanding of how suicidal thought develops, how we can help prevent death from suicide, and how suicidal people can recover and change their way of thinking. The message and purpose of this book are both simple and essential: with a little knowledge and awareness, you can help save a life. This book provides details in recognizing the warning signs of someone who may be suicidal and specific steps in how to intervene and prevent a suicide. Written specifically for mature high school students and college-aged individuals, Suicide Prevention will enable readers to understand why someone may be suicidal. It also empowers readers to give a suicidal individual hope and explains how to get that person help. The book explains why suicidal thoughts may develop and presents interventions for concerned others to help the suicidal person shift their mindset of hopelessness and find resources to heal. Vignettes and suicide prevention measures are provided to bring to life the interventions a concerned other can make that could save a life. This book could be the most valuable and impactful read in a young adult's life.

Abstract:

This chapter examines suicide as one response to the human predicament. It is argued that while suicide can bring relief from appalling quality of life, it is not a cost-free exit from the human predicament. Even when it is the least bad option, it nonetheless involves annihilation. Moreover, it fails to address the problem of meaninglessness at any level. Indeed, it often (even though not always) exacerbates that problem by limiting the sorts of meaning that are sometimes attainable. Various arguments supporting a categorical opposition to suicide are examined and rejected. These include arguments that suicide amounts to murder, that it is irrational, unnatural, and cowardly. The interests of others sometimes do but sometimes do not render suicide wrong. The finality of death makes suicide a momentous decision, but it does not always make suicide wrong. The conditions under which suicide is and is not a reasonable option are discussed.
