This study was performed to identify the meaning of life experience following suicide attempt among middle-aged men.
A qualitative research design was adopted using van Manen's hermeneutic phenomenological approach. The participants were six middle-aged men who had attempted suicide at least one time. Data were collected in 2013 through in-depth interviews. Individual interviews were recorded; and literary, art works and phenomenological literature were searched to identify the meaning of the experience.
The five essential themes of the life experience of middle-aged men who attempted suicide were 'Bitter reality confronted again', 'Anger buried deep inside', 'Broken family, inescapable fetters', 'Blocked relationships, closed world' and 'A step towards a new life'.
The meaning of lived experience found in this study provides deep insight into the experience following suicide attempt in middle-aged men and crucial information to give directions to appropriate support and nursing interventions.
本研究旨在确定中年男性自杀未遂后的生活经历的意义。
采用范曼的诠释现象学方法进行定性研究设计。参与者为六名至少有过一次自杀未遂经历的中年男性。2013年通过深入访谈收集数据。对个人访谈进行了录音；并检索了文学、艺术作品和现象学文献以确定经历的意义。
自杀未遂的中年男性生活经历的五个基本主题为“再次面对痛苦现实”、“深埋内心的愤怒”、“破碎的家庭，无法摆脱的束缚”、“受阻的人际关系，封闭的世界”和“迈向新生活的一步”。
本研究中发现的生活经历的意义为深入了解中年男性自杀未遂后的经历提供了深刻见解，并为适当的支持和护理干预提供了关键信息。
