The word „suicide“ comes from a latin word sui caedere, which means to kill yourself, therefore it stands for conscious and deliberate way of taking your own life. Ervin Stengel explains that suicide is a way of behaviour at a point in someones life when a person goes through a heavy life crisis, that it is a response to disrupted global communication and it is the only way out of real existential crisis for that person. At the same time, suicide is an appeal to the closest society in which we see a cry for help, a need too end heavy mental pain, ambivalence of the person towards life or death. From a medical point of view, suicide is an act which is a result of a disrupted vital instinct to self-maintenance, which is considered to be the strongest hierarchy instinct in a human being. In that way suicide can be considered a disrupt of a basic instinct, therefore gets a pathological connotation [1]. Epidemiological data shows a general trend of increasing rate of suicides in the world, as well as in Croatia. Therefore, suicides are considered a priority public health problem in Republic of Croatia. Suicide statistics are based on death confirmations and coroner reports so there is a big possibility they are underestimated. Even with that data, suicide is one of the first ten reasons for death. Suicide is a reason for 30% of deaths among students and 10% of deaths among people aged 25-34. More than 70% of people who commit suicide are over 40 years old, and the number is growing for those over 60, especially men. There was a meta-anlysis conducted from data received from HZZJZ for the County of Međimurje and County of Dubrovačko-neretvanska for the period of time between 2006-2010 with a purpose of quantitative comparison of suicide rate data (of 100 000) in those two counties. The goal is to determine which county has a higher rate of suicides and where the precaution measurements should be reinforced through larger enlightenment of the society on how to correctly approach a suicidal person, as well as how to recognize a presuicidal sindrome. To raise awerness that suicide is not a personal problem but a socitey problem and that every prevented suicide should be considered a great success.
