Abstract
Suicide is a significant global health issue, adversely affecting individuals, families, and society at large. This cross-sectional research involved 62 suicide attempt survivors in 12 months of the study who had been hospitalized at the MGM Medical College and MY Hospital, Indore, India with a 3 months follow up. Psychiatric examination involved the use of Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) at the time of admission and follow-up check. Major participants were young adults (18-30 years) with a margin of females over males. The most frequent methods of attempt were poisoning and overdosing of drugs and the most prevalent diagnosis was depression. At 3 months, 38 had reported improved health and 42 had endured therapy. We found strong association between family support and better outcomes and continued treatment attendance.
