Description


life is full of risk. people much chose amount of danger to which they are willing to expose themselves. Sometimes these choices may be conscious about irrational. Suicide is seen as to be an individual action yet has its roots or reasons coming from social relationship.(Collister 1990).
Suicide is defined as a fatal self-injurious act with some evidence of intent to die Worldwide, more than 800,000 people die due to suicide.
Ide each year. It is estimated that about 1.5 million people will die due to suicide by the year 2020. The suicide mortality rate in 2015 was 10.7 per 100,000, which means about one death every 20s. Suicide accounts for 1.4% of all deaths, and is the 15th leading cause of death globally. Many more men than women die by suicide. The male-to-female ratio varies between 4 to 1 (Europe and Americas) and 1.5 to 1 (Eastern Mediterranean and Western Pacific region), and is highest in richer countries. These suicide figures are probably still an underestimation of the real cases. Registering a suicide is a complicated process, often involving judicial authorities. Suicide deaths may not be recognized or may be misclassified as an accident or another cause of death. Sometimes suicide is not acknowledged or reported, due to its sensitive nature and the taboo that still surrounds it. Suicide attempts, i.e. non-fatal suicidal behavior, are much more frequent, and are estimated to be about 10-20 times more frequent than actual suicide. The estimated global annual prevalence of self-reported suicide attempts is approximately 3 per 1,000 adults. About 2.5% of the population makes at least one suicide attempt during their lifetime.
