TY - JOUR PY - 1997// TI - Alcohol and suicide attempts JO - Przeglad Lekarski A1 - Kołaciński, Z A1 - Rosa, Krzysztof A1 - Wiese, Michele A1 - Kruszewska, S. SP - 438 EP - 440 VL - 54 IS - 6 N2 - A large number of patients (30%) admitted to the Clinic of Acute Poisonings, Lódź, Poland, with suicidal drug poisoning have been found to act under the influence of alcohol. Sociological interview revealed that 6% of them were alcoholics and 3.8% reported to have repeated the suicidal attempt because of alcohol addiction. From the sociological point of view the female and adolescent (15-18 years old) family members are most vulnerable as they are frequently exposed to highly stressful conditions which may eventually result in their becoming addicted to alcohol as well.
