High risk suicide factors both in India and in the United States are examined. In India these are: humiliation, reputational and economic loss, poverty, examination failure, relationship disappointments, disputes with spouse and inlaws, property disputes, loss of loved one, and chronic medical illnesses. In the United States major depressions, schizophrenia, alcoholism, recent loss(es), retirement, limited social support system, age over 45 and high risk low rescue situations are significant. Most of high risk suicide factors in India apparently are related to interpersonal and socioeconomic causes, whereas in the United States these relate to individual and psychiatric causes. These interesting differences are discussed.
对印度和美国的高风险自杀因素进行了研究。在印度，这些因素包括：羞辱、名誉和经济损失、贫困、考试失利、人际关系失望、与配偶及姻亲的纠纷、财产纠纷、失去亲人以及慢性疾病。在美国，主要的抑郁症、精神分裂症、酗酒、近期的损失、退休、有限的社会支持系统、45岁以上的年龄以及高风险低救援情况较为显著。印度的大多数高风险自杀因素显然与人际和社会经济原因有关，而在美国，这些因素与个人和精神疾病原因有关。对这些有趣的差异进行了讨论。
