ABSTRACT: A group of 108 adolescents who attempted suicide over a two‐year period is described. Significant factors related to these attempts are presented and discussed. These adolescent suicide attempts are most significantly related to long‐term family dysfunction. Some vegetative depressive symptoms are noted in a majority of patients. Implications are drawn for strengthening the mental health practitioner's role in detecting and preventing adolescent suicide.
