abstract="BACKGROUND: Suicidality is considered to be a facultative symptom of certain psychiatric disorders. AIM: To provide evidence in support of the view that suicidality is not only a symptom of other disorders or comorbid with them but is often a disorder in its own right. METHOD: We conducted a review of the literature. RESULTS: Suicidality manifests itself as a disorder in its own right without any one-to-one relationships with other psychiatric or somatic disorders or illnesses. CONCLUSION: Suicidality has specific features of its own such as susceptibility to interindividual contagion. By preventing suicide we may be able to forestall the development of other types of ill-health and thus improve the quality of the life that has been saved.<p /> <p>Language: nl</p>",
