The results of the study: - Most of the children lived with both parents. - The mainly reason for attempt suicide was... (More)

The study is based on 42 children/youth, who came to the Child Psychiatric Clinic in Växjö during the year 1998 and 1999, with the contact based on the suicide attempt. The results of the study: - Most of the children lived with both parents. - The mainly reason for attempt suicide was that the child was in some sort of conflict to his/hers parents. Other reason was for example separation from boyfriend/girlfriend, or depression. - It wasn´t any difference between children who hade a connection with a social worker before the suicide attempt. 18 children had a contact before, 24 not. - Most of the psychotherapy given to the children after the suicide attempt, was with the whole family, in a family therapy. - 25 % of the children did only meet a child psychiatric staff member 1 time.
