This study will help in determining national suicide prevention strategies. Moreover, understanding the reasons for the lack of awareness about completed suicide will strengthen the measures to be taken in this regard. It was determined that the most important rate among the causes 48 419 completed suicide in Turkey in the years 2004 to 2019 was the 22 645 (46.76%) suicides of unknown cause and there was not enough information about the underlying causes. Suicide statistics data of the Turkish Statistical Institute (TUIK) between 2004 and 2019 were analyzed retrospectively in terms of geographical regions, gender, age groups and seasonality. Statistical analyses of the study were performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences for Windows (IBM SPSS version 25.0, Armonk, NY, USA) software. It was determined that the highest crude rate of suicide during 16 years was in the Eastern Anatolia region, the lowest rate was in the Marmara region, and the ratio of the number of female suicides with unknown cause to the number of male suicides was higher in Eastern Anatolia than in other regions, the rate of unknown crude suicide in both genders was highest in the under 15 age group, this rate decreased as the age progressed, the lowest rate was in women with unknown age, the effect of the season was observed in women with unknown cause, but not in men. Between 2004 and 2019, suicides with unknown cause were the most important reason for suicide. We think that there may be geographical, gender, age, seasonal, sociocultural and economic factors that may affect this, national suicide prevention and planning strategies will be insufficient unless this issue is adequately examined, and institutional structures should be established, including psychiatrists, where deep forensic investigations can be carried out.

“…In order to recognize and prevent this problem, it is important to know the risk factors and protective factors in suicidal behavior. Being between 15-25 years of age, being single, low education level, presence of mental illness or psychiatric diagnosis are some of the risk factors for suicidal behavior (Özel et al, 2008;Önsüz et al, 2012;Arslan et al, 2008;Dilbaz et al, 2005;Yavuz et al, 2006;Şevik et al, 2012;Karamustafalıoğlu et al, 2010;Swan et al, 2002;Fennig et al, 2005;Atay et al, 2012;Kessler et al, 1999). Factors such as commitment to life, satisfaction with health status, help-seeking behavior and social support are protective factors (Atay et al, 2012;Gürkan and Dirik, 2009;Batıgün, 2008).…”

Suicide is an important public health problem affecting individuals and the systems surrounding them. In this study, suicide concept is considered in two ways as completed suicides and suicide attempts. Completed suicides result in death and suicide attempts are self-destructive behaviors. Studies show that while completed suicides are more in men, suicides attempts are more in women. Under the pressure of the hegemonic masculinity, men maintain their traditional masculine gender roles and may resort to suicidal behavior with the fear of failure or perception of failure. Women's suicidal behavior also has a major impact on gender-related problems and gender role expectations. Exclusion and discriminatory behaviors towards LGBTI individuals have a significant effect on suicidal behavior. When the distribution of the rates of completed suicide and suicide attempts according to sex, the selected suicide method and the reasons for suicide behavior are examined, the effect of gender is seen. All these points to the fact that gender should not be ignored in suicidal behavior. In this study, suicide is discussed from a gender perspective and the importance of gender sensitive social work practices in suicidal behavior is emphasized

“…Uluslararası literatürde ölümle sonuçlanan intihar eylemlerinde erkeklerin sık kullandıkları yöntemlerin ateşli silah ve ası; kadınların ise ilaç/madde alımı olduğu bildirilmiştir (8,14). İntihar girişimlerinde ise her iki cinsiyette de sıklıkla anksiyolitikler veya barbitürat grubu ilaçlar kullanıldığı, ayrıca ön kola veya bileğe uygulanan kesme yöntemlerinin ve yüksekten atlama ya da motorlu araç önüne atlamanın da kullanılan yöntemlerden oldukları belirtilmiştir (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23). Çalışmamızda da intihar girişiminde kullanılan ilaçların anksiyolitiklerin kullanımı bu sonuçlarla uyumludur.…”

“…Çalışmamızda intihar nedenleri incelendiğinde; ilk sırada kişilerarası aile içi sorunlarının olduğu göze çarpmaktadır. Ülkemiz genelinde intihar nedenleri içinde ilk üç sırada hastalık, aile içi geçimsizlik ve geçim zorluğu bulunmaktadır (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22). TÜİK verilerine baktığımızda ise, bilinen intihar nedenleri 21 22 arasında ilk iki sırayı yine sırasıyla hastalık ve aile geçimsizliği almaktadır.…”

ÖZAmaç: Günümüzde, intihar girişimlerinin önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunu haline geldiği kabul edilebilir. Bu çalışmada, acil servise intihar girişimi nedeni ile başvuran olguların demografik özel-likleri, intihar girişim yöntemleri ve nedenlerinin belirlenmesi ve mevcut literatür bilgileri ile karşılaştırılması amaçlandı. Olguların intihar girişimi nedenleri arasında ilk sırada aile içi geçimsizlik (n:13, %32.5) bulunurken, bunu kişilerarası sorunlar (n: 15, %37.5) izlemekteydi. 23 (%57.5) olgunun öncesinde psikiyatrik hastalık öyküsü mevcuttu. Girişimlerin %82.5'i ilaç alarak yapılmıştır. Hastalardan 35'i (%87.5) daha önce intihar girişimin-de bulunmamışken, 5'i (%12.5) daha önce intihar girişiminde bulunmuştu. Gereç veSonuç: Kadınlar erkeklerden daha fazla intihar girişiminde bulunmaktadırlar. Daha önceki girişimi ve aile öyküsü temel risk faktörlerindendir. Çalışmanın en çarpıcı sonucu ise önemli bir orandaki olgu için psikiyatri konsültasyonu istenmemiş olması-dır. Psikiyatrik hastalıkların intihar girişiminin etiyolojisinde yer alması nedeniyle, intihar girişiminde bulunan olguların psikiyatrik değerlendirme ve takibe alınmalarının sağlanması hayati önem taşımaktadır. Results: It is seemed that the cases applying for suicide attempts are just 0.13% of all the patients who are in the hospital in the same term.Also, when the general hospital records in the same term are analyzed, it is argued that totally 86 cases have applied for suicide attempts and for 46.5% (40 cases) of those cases psychiatric consultations are not requested. A total of 40 patients received to study there were 32 (80%) women and 8 (%20) men. While the groups age range, 14-45 years, mean age ranged from 23.6±9.3 years. The most frequent cause of the suicide attempt was marital discord (n:13,32.5%) followed by the interpersonal problems (n: 15, %37.5). 23 (57.5%) of cases had prior psychiatric disorder history. 82.5 % of attempts were done by taking drugs.While 35(87.5%) of the patients have not previously attempted suicide, 5 (12.5%) of patients previously attempted suicide. Conclusion:There are more suicide attempts in women than men. Previous suicide attempt and having family history of suicide are detected as basic risk factors. The most striking result of this work is that psychiatric consultations are not demanded for the cases in highly big amounts.Careful and close follow-up of patients with psychiatric disorders and assurance of subsequent psychiatric examination-follow up of the cases who attempted suicide are of vital importance since psychiatric disorders are among the etiology of suicidal attempts.
