TY - JOUR PY - 1995// TI - Depression and suicidal behaviour: Psychopathological differences between suicidal and non-suicidal depressive patients JO - Archives of suicide research A1 - Wolfersdorf, Manfred G. SP - EP - VL - 1 IS - N2 - After an introduction to the fundamental structure of suicidal tendencies, the of suicidal behaviour is discussed in depth, in particular suicide and attempted suicides of patients suffering from depression in both the general population as well as patients undergoing clinical treatment. Particular emphasis is placed upon the question of typical psychopathology as a high risk factor, i.e. those psychopathological phenomena that separate suicidal from non-suicidal depressive patients. It is seen that special importance is attributed to thoughts of worthlessness, guilt, despair, depressive delusional symptoms, inner restlessness and agitation, panic attacks and states of anxiety, sleep disorders and previous suicidal behaviour.
