FEMALE SUICIDES IN OUR METROPOLITAN CITIES

Abstract

It is our biggest and most realistic goal to identify the steps that need to be taken to prevent suicides and especially female suicides, and it is our sincere wish to be useful to the works that will be prepared about suicide. Within the scope of this research, more than 350 academic works on suicides have been reached and all the works have been thoroughly examined with all the details and the road map of the study has been determined. Descriptive research management and document analysis were used in this study, which deals with suicidal acts on the basis of the data of the Turkish Statistical Institute for 2019 on women and the provinces with the title of metropolitan in administrative terms, in particular, descriptive research management and document analysis were used. The methods in question were used to analyze female suicides in categories such as age group, suicide patterns, causes, and gross suicide rates. According to the evaluations, a total of 604 women in our province with 30 metropolitan status chose the path of suicide and ended their lives. The maximum numbers of cases were found in Istanbul (99 cases), Ankara (43 cases), Diyarbakır (37 cases) and İzmir (36 cases), while Malatya (2 cases), Trabzon (5 cases) and Sakarya (6 cases) constituted the provinces with the lowest values. The highest number of cases in the age groups occurred in the group aged 20-24 to 15-19 years. The most preferred method of suicide is hanging, while other and illness have been the most common causes of suicide (Tüik, https://biruni.tuik.gov.tr/medas/?kn=115&locale=tr, Erişim Tarihi: 10.11.2021). Female suicides are a preventable public and community health problem. In order to avoid this act, the socio-economic and socio-cultural problems of women should be solved, a permanent and effective roadmap should be prepared and urgently implemented.
