Abstract

Objective: Although it has been known that adult patients with an adjustment disorder diagnosis donot have suicidal behavior similar to adolescents, the validity of this assertion in particular groups isunknown. This study was designed to determine the prevalence and risk factors associated withsuicide in patients with adjustment disorder that resulted in suicide among young men performingcompulsory military service.Method: Of 202 young men with a diagnosis of adjustment disorder, 125 (61.9%) were admitted withadjustment problems and 77 (38.1%) with suicide attempt. Demographic characteristics, substanceabuse, psychiatric disorders, suicide attempts, family history of suicide, self-mutilation, and physicaland sexual trauma histories of both groups were compared.Results: Of the patients who attempted suicide, 83.1% (n=64) selected methods unlikely to failincluding firearms, hanging, jumping, cutting tools, and burning. Significant differences were foundbetween the two groups (those who attempted suicide versus those who did not) in terms of SC useand self mutilation history. In addition, the use of synthetic cannabinoids was associated with pastsuicide attempts. But, it is difficult to generalize the results of the study to all patients with adjustmentdisorder.Conclusion: These findings may help to predict suicidal behavior in young men showing symptoms ofadjustment disorder.

Özet

Amaç: Uyum bozukluğu tanısı olan erişkin hastaların, adolesanlara benzer şekilde intihar davranışında bulunmadıkları bilinmesine rağmen, bunun özel gruplardaki geçerliliği bilinmemektedir. Bu çalışma, askerlik hizmetini yapmakta olan ve intihar girişimi ile sonuçlanan uyum bozukluğu tanısı olan genç erkek bireylerdeki intiharla ilişkili prevalansı ve risk faktörlerini saptamak için tasarlanmıştır. Yöntem: Uyum bozukluğu tanısı alan 202 genç erkeğin 125’i (%61.9) uyum sorunları ile, 77’si (%38.1) intihar girişimi ile başvurdu. Her iki grup demografik özellikler, madde kötüye kullanımı, psikiyatrik hastalıklar, intihar girişimleri, ailede intihar öyküsü, kendine zarar verme girişimleri, fiziksel ve cinsel travma öyküleri açısından karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: İntihar girişiminde bulunan hastaların %83.1’ i (n=64) ateşli silahlar, asma, atlama, kesici aletler ve yanma dahil olmak üzere başarısız olma ihtimali düşük olan yöntemleri seçmişlerdi. İntihar girişiminde bulunan grup ile intihar girişiminde bulunmayan grup kıyaslandığında, sentetik kanabinoid kullanımı ve kendine zarar verme girişimleri açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar bulundu. Ayrıca, sentetik kanabinoidlerin kullanımı geçmişteki intihar girişimleri ile de ilişkilendirildi. Ancak, çalışmanın sonuçlarını uyum bozukluğu olan tüm hastalara genellemek zor görünüyor. Sonuç: Bu bulgular, uyum bozukluğu belirtileri gösteren genç erkeklerde, intihar davranışını öngörmede yol gösterici olabilir.
