在过去的几十年里,30岁以下人群的自杀率几乎增加了两倍。我们比较了133名30岁以下的自杀者和150名30岁及以上的自杀者。在收集和回顾广泛的临床信息和死后毒理学数据后,我们使用DSM-III标准进行诊断。一项主要的诊断发现是,滥用药物的情况比以前报道的要多,而且明显更多地发生在年轻人身上。在我们的总样本和以前的研究之间,或者在我们的年轻人和老年人之间,几乎没有发现其他的差异。我们的结论是,有必要对年轻群体进行更仔细的研究,以了解滥用药物者和其他年轻自杀者之间可能存在的其他差异。
The suicide rate among people under 30 years of age has nearly tripled in the past several decades. We compared 133 suicides under the age of 30 years with 150 aged 30 years and over. After gathering and reviewing extensive clinical information and postmortem toxicologic data, we assigned diagnoses using DSM-III criteria. A major diagnostic finding was the occurrence of more drug abuse than had been previously reported, significantly more often in the young people. Few other differences were found either between our total sample and previous studies or between our younger and older groups. We conclude that a closer look at the young group is necessary to see what other differences might occur between the drug abusers and other young suicides.
