Suicide Epidemiology Depending on Socio-Climate Changes
Suicide Epidemiology Depending on Socio-Climate Changes

Summary/Abstract: Suicide is any situation in which death occurs as a result of a deliberate act committed by the victim [11]. Currently, the notion of suicide tends to be replaced by that of suicidal behavior. The latter includes: successful suicide, suicide attempt and suicide ideation. Suicide is a disease associated, in turn, with mental disorders such as depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, alcohol dependence and other substances [12, 15]. Our study is a retrospective one, through which we followed epidemiological data on suicide over three generations, between 1982 and 2017, the case being taken from the region of Moldova (period 1982-1993) and later from Iasi County (1994-2017).
