By far the highest risk of suicide comes in the first months after release and among individuals with a history of substance abuse and previous suicide attempts. The risk committing suicide in such a case may be due to variety of reason including the factors such as previous history of mental state and being born in which country.</p>\n<p>The existence of certain other psychiatric diagnoses and the country of birth do affect the risk of committing suicide in a prison. Past or present substance abuse, previous suicide attempts and being born in certain country further increases the risk of suicide in persons who are serving a prison sentence.</p>\n<p>Further, one possible explanation to such suicide cases is that those who have been in prison do not seek or receive treatment for their depression, which is thus under-treated. Another possible explanation is that it is primarily substance abuse and not depression that leads to suicide in individuals who have served/been serving a prison sentence.</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"pkkpn5uaf","appParentAuthor":"divine-sound","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
