Treatment of suicidal people takes three forms: prevention -
strategies to avert conditions leading to suicide; intervention -
treatment and care during the crisis; and postvention - response
after the event has occurred. Unlike other current literature, here
the focus is on the state of the art of intervention. This type of
examination is essential, because suicidal people themselves are in
need of such treatments - crisis intervention, psychotherapy,
psychopharmacology and hospitalization. Written by professionals in
the field, the Treatment of Suicidal People allows readers to
participate in a learning experience. First is a case presentation
of an individual - Arthur Inman - and his long road toward suicide,
as chronicled in his personal diary. The seond section puts forth
guidelines for the evaluation of suicide risk and crisis
intervention. A focus on more sustained efforts in psychotherapy is
next, a theme which is continued in the fourth part by addressing
psychiatric issues that are essential for treatment of highly
disturbed and lethal patients. The following section examines a
number of clinical and legal issues that transcend any one
population of suicidal people, and any particular treatment
approach or context. And lastly, the volume returns to Arthur
Inman, with case consultations providing alternative perspectives
and recommendations on his treatment. Suicide and related forms of
self-injurious behaviour can be circumvented, if the involved
professionals are sufficiently trained in assessment and
prevention.
