Abstract:

 

Suicide is the leading cause of premature death among persons with schizophrenia.Compared to the general population, persons with schizophrenia are nine times more likely to die by suicide. The estimated rate of suicidal behavior among persons with schizophrenia is between 20% and 40%. In countries where decentralization, the number of schizophreniabed days in hospital setting is now only one third of figures from 25 years ago. This mean that patients representing two-thirds of all schizophrenia bed days are now under a lower degree supervision and observation than formerly. In additional, treating patients with schizophrenia mostly in the community causes more problems for the families. We report a female schizophrenic patient who caused death of other person during suicide attempt with jumped from heights. The other characteristic of case;she had two sister and one brother with schizophrenia and no social support. One of the sisters committed suicide and the other sister killed her son. In the light of this case; we discussed problems of individuals with chronic psychiatric disorders and their family based on community psychiatry.
