The article analyzes the approaches aimed at studying the determinants of social and individual psychological factors that lead to suicidal attempts during adolescence. It also classifies the traumatic effects of social psychological factors that lead to suicidal ideation during adolescence. It should be noted that the role of interpersonal and family relationships in the manifestation of suicidal behavior in adolescents is high.

Abstract:

Psoriasis is a chronic hyperproliferative condition of the epidermis which requires systemic therapy. Anxiety, depression, poor self-esteem, alcoholism, sexual dysfunction, suicidal ideation are the commonest psychological problems encountered in psoriasis. Quality of life may be severely affected by the chronic nature of the psoriasis as well as the need of life long treatment. In general, psychological factors include poor self-esteem, stigmatization, depression and anxiety which are the strong determinants which determine the disability in psoriasis more than the disease itself.

Suicide warfare has expanded over the years and become a global phenomenon. In some parts of the world, it has become rooted in the fabric of society.

Abstract This chapter moves from the previous chapters’ focus on women to the crisis of white manhood that race suicide fomented, tracking its manifestation in Teutonism.

Jack London’s works stage this phantasmal revivification of the primordial virile tribe, superimposing the image of Viking-age Scandinavia onto the American Northland as the s

Abstract:

Abstract The prodromal period of schizophrenia is the first manifestation of illness, and refers to a period in which the individual is experiencing symptoms and difficulties, but before the onset of frank psychotic symptoms. Although there is great variability between patients in how their prodromes manifest, certain symptoms and signs have been frequently described. These include depressed mood, anxiety, irritability and aggressive behaviour, suicidal ideation and attempts, and substance use (Yung and McGorry 1996a, 1996b).

Abstract:

Countertransference is an inescapable component of all psychotherapy. Intense countertransference reactions often occur during the treatment of suicidal patients. Lack of awareness of countertransference reactions of malice and aversion may be suicide-inviting. On the other hand, awareness of these reactions may enhance the treatment by alerting therapists that the suicidal patient is fomenting issues he is unable or unwilling to articulate. Problems that arise in the course of psychotherapy of suicidal patients may be understood in relation to the therapist’s countertransference reactions. In

Abstract Culture plays a significant role in the suicidal process. Researchers attribute variations in suicidal behaviours across societies to divergences in manifestations of culture. However, scholarly work mostly fails to understand what culture is, and how to conceptualize and measure this over-encompassing and elusive phenomenon. This chapter first surveys the nature of suicidal behaviour and its intersocietal variation, and then discusses the concept of culture and its relevance to suicidology. It also outlines how culture might be involved in the suicidal process, as well as some method

Abstract Used more and more commonly, the non compos mentis verdict was the most important manifestation of the secularization of suicide. Whatever their private beliefs may have been, jurors acted on the medical interpretation of suicide and so sanctioned the popular rituals punishing the crime less and less often. This change in the responses of juries to suicide effectively transformed its meaning. Most such deaths were no longer treated as diabolical crimes that visited spiritual peril on the village community. The secularization of suicide at the level of the local community was prompted

Objectives: Illustrate and discuss a bilateral frontal syndrome resulting from stroke in the territory of the anterior cerebral artery, as well as, the possible confusion between functional and organic conditions presenting the same symptoms. Results: 61-year-old man complaining of falls and left lower limb weakness. Moreover, had been interned due to suicide attempt recently. He is hypertensive and was addicted to alcohol and illicit drugs. Two years before, he had a left anterior cerebral artery ischemic that led to right lower limb paresis. At admission, he had poor interaction and presented hyperreflexia and Babinski sign at the right lower limb while normoreflexia at left. Computed tomography (CT) of the skull showed left frontal encephalomalacia. It was discarded metabolic and infectious disturbance as well as no signs of trauma from reported falls or high-risk lesions for new stroke. Psychiatric evaluations identified depression related to social, and economic factors. Pharmacological and behavioral measures were instituted. However, the condition worsened with the onset of mutism, akinesia, and abulia, which was attributed to the wors ening of depression. Antidepressant regimen was adjusted again and new brain CT was performed. It disclosed a new stroke of the right anterior cerebral artery. Initially, the symptoms were attributed to a functional condition and no organic justification was found. Nevertheless, the worsening of the basal status evolved to a catatonic manifestation, in parallel to a new frontal stroke. Previous contralateral frontal stroke might have turned the patient vulnerable to this condition. Nonetheless, the course of time eased by pharmacological strategy used (lithium, amitriptyline, and risperidone), was able to reverse the condition, except for left leg monoplegia evidenced after the restoration of spontaneous motricity. Conclusion: The case illustrates the clinical-anatomical correlations of anterior cerebral artery stroke, but also highlights the interface between neurology and psychiatry."
