abstract="In this article, presented as an anthropological essay on the human condition, the author proposes some thoughts likely to support our reflection on the question of suicide, be it biological, sociological or psychological in nature. The framework suggests an invitation to question ourselves on what is the depth of the human being, the ambiguity that marks us, the inherent contradictions that constitutes us, as we are torn between life and death, between positivity and negativity, and the ideology of the &quot;all positive&quot; that tends to generate a dangerous internalization of the &quot;negative.&quot; Suicide in its most diversified forms, from substance abuse of all kind, to chronic depression and self-destruction, is thus examined within this fundamental ambiguity which is the mark of our human condition. Experts who attempt to comprehend suicidal behavior are invited to acknowledge our common, always tragic humanity that makes us all human beings.<p /> <p>Language: fr</p>",
