Abstract:
In suicidological literature and practice there is a repeated confirmation of the presence of the appeal function as an unconscious motive in the suicide attempt. In the basis of the appeal is the attempt of the suicidant to restore disturbed relations with surroundings, and according to this, in this case, the suicide attempt is directed more to life than death. In the researched material an analysis was conducted of the cause of death in 319 women with the aim to evident the possible presence of unwanted pregnancy and to give light to the causes and motives of the act of suicide.
