N2  - The author presents the thesis that suicide is a gratification of self-destructive tendencies, which consist of an aggressive element, the wish to kill, and a submissive element, the wish to die. The motivation may come from the ego, the super-ego, or the id. The act includes three components, that of killing, that of dying, and that of being killed. The author discusses the analytic significance of each of these, illustrating with case references. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2018 APA, all rights reserved)<p />
