intra-psychic distress, and irresistable suicidality. AD symptoms
overlapped with SSRI presentations. Eighty-one percent of the AD
sample reported no ideation; however, 96% made an attempt. For
the SSRI group, 52% reported no ideation; however, 95% made an
attempt. Sensitivity 80.3%, specificity 98.1%. Internal consistency
0.75 to 0.92. Test-retest scores 0.78 to 0.98, and neurodiagnostic
correlations 0.70 to 0.98. Some scores correlated significantly with
the “gold standard” Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale.
Conclusion NIS is associated with alarmingly high rates of youth
suicide attempt. The new neuropsychological measure demon-
strates practical screening value in unobvious NIS proposed to
represent a heretofore unrecognized neural mechanism.

Introduction Suicide is one of the main causes of premature mor-
tality in Belarus. It is well recognized that drinking is among the
major risk factors that are associated with suicidal behavior.
Aims This study was design to extend our understanding the
relationship between alcohol and suicidal behavior.
Methods Risk factors for suicidal behavior (completed suicide
and parasuicide) among residents of Minsk city and Gomel city
were studied.
Results Among the residents of Minsk themaximum suicides risk
was in the age of 46–60 years, and parasuicide at age 20–39 years.
The ratio of men to women - 4:1; they were often BAC-positive
(from38.8% in2015 to 42% in2008). Among parasuicides sex ratio of
about 1:1; 30% ofmen aged 20–39 years, were BAC-positive. Studies
in the city of Gomel, has shown maximum number of parasuicides
in the ages of 18–29 years (39.3% inwomen and 30.7%men). Among
parasuicides the majority of men (57.8%) and a significant propor-
tion of women (34.2%) were BAC-positive. Maximum number of
those attempted suicide and dependent on alcohol were among
men ages 30–39 years (66.15%) and 50–59 years (65.22%), among
women in the age 30–39 years (45.45%).
Conclusions Acute alcohol intoxication is characteristic of young
people who commit parasuicide. Chronic alcohol intoxication is a
risk factor in middle-aged persons who commit suicide. Prolonged
use of alcohol contributes to the development of comorbid men-
tal disorders, during the crisis of middle age is manifested as an
increased risk of suicides.

Introduction Physician Suicide is a potential health risks result-
ing from strains and burden associated with medical education
and profession. Suicide is an occupational hazard. Each year in the
United States, 300 to 400 physicians take their own lives.
Objective To provide a summary about physician suicide and its
risk factors and mental health issues associated.
Methods The search was conducted using PubMed with terms:
“suicide in physicians”, “physician suicide”, “suicide in doctors”,
“physician depression”, by using a review of literature with doc-
uments in English.
Discussion Suicide is a major health problem. Suicide death is
a self-inflicted with evidence that the person aims die. Men-
tal disorders represent a large burden of disease worldwide and
can also damage to physical health. The most common psy-
chiatric diagnoses among physicians who complete suicide are
affective disorders, alcoholism, and substance use disorders. In
physicians, the female suicide rates are higher than that in males.
The most common means of suicide by physicians are lethal
medication overdoses and firearms. There are common risk fac-
tors, such as work-related stress, depression, negative life events,
alcohol and isolation. In addition, there is a physicians’ ten-
dency not to recognize depression in themselves and not to seek
help.
Conclusions Prioritize to physician mental health, change pro-
fessional attitudes and institutional policies, learn to recognize
depression and suicidality, educate medical students, residents,
routinely screen all primary care patients for depression that can
help physicians recognize depression in themselves and to seek
treatment for depression and suicidality because there is “no health
without mental health”.

Introduction Suicide is a major public health issue. It is the lead-
ing cause of death among younger adults in the UK. Suicide by
jumping is an uncommon method. About 23 people die each year
by jumping from the cliffs at beachy head, Sussex. The beachy
head chaplaincy established a suicide-prevention patrol at beachy
head in August 2004. To date there have been no studies eval-
uating the impact of a suicide patrol as a prevention strategy.
This study aimed to assess the impact of this suicide-prevention
patrol.
Methods Data from local and national official statistics was gath-
ered to examine the overall suicide numbers and rates of suicide
by jumping vs. other methods. This included an in-depth scrutiny
of coroners’ data and reports from the beachy head chaplaincy.
A qualitative, phenomenological approach using in-depth inter-
views was used to evaluate the “lived experiences” of members
of the suicide-prevention patrol.
Results The statistics reveal unexpected and at times, conflicting,
results which will be offered for discussion.
The thematic analysis of the interviews reveals insights into the
motivations for volunteering; how a faith-based patrol works; the
physical and psycho-social impact of the work; volunteers’ stories;
the centrality of God within their work and motivation.
For copyright reasons full details of the analyses cannot be made
available before the conference.
Discussion We welcome an interactive discussion of the results.
