Resumo: The article proposes a critical review about suicide and ethical conflicts concerning the subject. Epidemiological data, definitions and expressions of suicide among adolescents and elderly people are presented and prevention interventions are discussed. The amplitude and complexity of the subject are discussed and how simplistic and conclusive answers can lead to error. Suicide can be considered as an existential option to deal with pain and suffering, as considered by writer Andrew Solomon and Ramón Sampedro, who wrote the book Letters from hell. Health professionals may have the therapeutic action: to prevent at all costs the suicidal act or to understand the human suffering, which can lead to the suicidal act as a form of ending pain. This is the main conflict surrounding the issue of suicide and health professionals.

Son presentados datos epidemiológicos y manifestaciones de conducta suicida entre jóvenes y viejos y definiciones y cuestiones relacionadas con prevención. Se discute el alcance y complejidad del tema y como respuestas simplistas pueden conducir a error. Se argumenta que el suicidio puede ser una manera de abordar el sufrimiento. La opción está representada pelo suicidio existencial; trayendo como ejemplos dos historias reales: el autor Andrew Solomon y Ramón Sanpedro, que escribió el libro Cartas desde el infierno. Profesionales de la salud pueden tener dos acciones terapéuticas: evitar a todo costo el acto suicida o enten der el sufrimiento humano que puede conducir al acto del suicidio como forma de acabar con el dolor. Este es el principal conflicto en torno al tema de los profesionales y el suicidio.O artigo tem como objetivo fazer uma revisão crítica sobre suicídio e os conflitos éticos envolvendo o tema. São apresentados dados epidemiológicos, manifestações do comportamento suicida entre jovens e idosos, definições e questões vinculadas à sua prevenção. Discute-se a abrangência e complexidade do tema e como respostas simplistas e definitivas podem levar a erro. Aponta-se que o suicídio pode ser uma das formas de enfrentar o sofrimento. A opção existencial do suicídio é ilustrada, trazendo como exemplo duas histórias verídicas: o escritor Andrew Solomon e Ramón Sampedro, autor do livro Cartas do inferno. Profissionais de saúde podem ter como ação terapêutica: impedir a todo custo que o ato suicida ocorra ou compreender o sofrimento humano, que pode levar ao ato suicida como forma de acabar com a dor. Esse é o conflito principal que envolve a questão do suicídio e os profissionais de saúde.Editora Mackenzie2013-09-16info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/ptp/article/view/6199The Journal Of Psychology: Theory and Practice ; Vol. 15 No. 3 (2013); 69Revista Psicología: Teoría y Práctica; Vol. 15 Núm. 3 (2013); 69Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Prática; v. 15 n. 3 (2013); 691980-69061516-3687reponame:Psicologia (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
