Abstract

Background: Today, suicide is one of the major social and mental health problems in many countries especially European countries. The mortality rate following suicide is higher than accidents in many countries. In this paper, we reviewed the last statistics for suicide in Iran, compared with the statistics for the world.Methods: The rates of suicide were based mainly on statistics of legal medicine organization during the year 2002.Results: During the year 2002, 5.7 out of 100,000 men and 3.1 out of 100,000 women committed suicide causing death in the country. There was statistically significant differences in methods, used in suicidal attempts between males and females (p<0.001). For males, the most frequent method was hanging (56%) and for females was self burning (63.4%). The rate of suicide was at the highest level for men in Hamedan, Lorestan and Ilam provinces and for women in Kermanshah and Lorestan.Conclusion: The rate of suicide in Iran is lower than western countries but is in a higher level in Middle East countries. Thus the etiologies leading to suicidal behavior should be more evaluated.
