For people identified as having highly changeable risk status, more vigilant or frequent management may be required. Additional aspects for assessment following an episode of self-harm or attempted suicide: ■ What exactly did the person do? For example, how many tablets were used, length of time in the car, what sort of knife was used, to what was the rope attached? ■ What precipitated the self-harm? Assessment confidence Low assessment confidence may be related to: ■ factors in the person at risk, such as impulsivity, Have the causes resolved or are they still present?

His trivialized view of the rational nature of suicide is one that I do not think translates to the American situation. Dalrymple views the large number of attempted suicide as being promoted by what he terms “the boredom of self-absorption”. The post attempt treatment that the patient receives is credited, according to Dalrymple, for giving him a sense of vitality. He also sees the attempted suicides as a way in which people try to avoid certain situations, whether they are an upcoming court hearing or the start of a new job. For Dalrymple, the overdose is the easiest way to relieve the crisis in their lives.
Content Book 1 – Extra Social Factors Suicide and Psychopathic states: Durkheim, as mentioned in the introduction, conducted the study of suicide to prove that it was social, rather than extra social factors that influenced suicide. The first extra social factor, to which suicide was mostly attributed to is insanity. Durkheim investigated this theory and pointed out that if suicide was caused by a certain insanity then this would be termed as ‘monomania’ – in Durkheim’s words, “a delirium of localized nature” that is, a person is otherwise normal but has sudden desires to drink or use abusive language. It was believed that a sudden emotional disturbance was enough to provoke monomania. However, Durkheim rejected this theory for two reasons; one, there is no concrete proof to show the existence of monomania, second, mental functions are completely dependent on one another, and insanity is present in one area, then it should also be present in another as well, that is if insanity affects one function it should affect at the other functions as well.
Deep hurts borne out of unfair treatment seem to play a part in substance use and abuse,” (Lin, 2004). The researcher also includes specific suggestions for future research (Pryczak, 2008). The author states “In terms of future research, we recommend a comparison of FT with other anger-focused therapies. Programs that attempt to reduce or eliminate long-standing resentment should be compared with those that emphasize here-and-now anger management and behavior control,” (Lin,
Sinae Boudreaux March 14, 2013 Reflective Paper: Suicide Suicide is the act of taking one’s own life on purpose. Suicidal behavior is any action that could cause a person to die. Suicidal behaviors occur when there is a situation or event that the individual find overwhelming. People with bipolar disorder, depression, drug or alcohol dependence, or even stressful life issues can be vulnerable to suicide or suicidal behaviors. Individuals who try to commit suicide wish they could just disappear away from life situations that seem impossible to deal with.
The second stage is identifying physiological changes when becoming angry such a rise in temperature. Thirdly the person can recognise and understand how irrational thoughts affect behaviour. After this, the person can learn good communication skills to deal with situations and taking responsibility for their behaviour and practising skills in new situations. Lastly is identifying risk situations to prepare for future experiences. Ireland et al aimed to find out whether anger management programmes reduce aggression in young male offenders.
This diversity is apparent both in differing rates of suicidal behavior and cultural differences among individuals within racial and ethnic groups. Focus could be averted more on understanding how these groups differ in patterns of suicidal behaviors and cultural differences to perhaps increase or decrease the likelihood of thinking about or attempting suicide and seeking help or support. The article seemed to avoid immigrated people who have been disadvantaged or those that have
