abstract="Psychiatric analysis has been performed in 389 patients, 194 women and 195 men during one year (May 1st 1987 to June 30th 1988). The analysis involved the sociodemographic or clinical patterns as well as the motivation mechanisms and methods of suicide realization. It has been stated that major group of patients was 20 to 40 years old, both women and men. The free-condition state was more frequent than others among patients studied. Majority of patients have had only basic education and were occupationally working. Patients with personality disturbances and neurotic ones were more frequently observed than others. Among psychotic patients a majority was represented by schizophrenics and those with endogenic depression. The alcohol dependence as a cause of suicidal attempt was most frequently noted in men; moreover, the alcohol intake frequently accompanied the suicidal attempt. Patients of our Department were consecutively treated in psychiatric out-patient units, however, there was insufficient aid to the patients being in crisis situations.<p /> <p>Language: pl</p>",
