Summary/Abstract: The phenomenon of suicide begins along with the history of humanity. The suicide in a sense of self destruction is a very complex phenomenon with no concrete cause or motive, it is a result of many different circumstances. This act is caused by diverse factors, such as: external and internal ones, i.e. social, biological and psychological factors and characteristics. Many philosophers, theologists, psychologists and other scientists tried to understand it, but, it is still an enormous secret, full of mystic and for many people it is understandable, opposite to that great existential force that lives in a human being. This is the reason why all of us have to fight the suicide, i.e. to prevent it in a way of a socially organized fight.
