The aim of the present study was to investigate 147 cases in terms of their demographic characteristics associated with attempted suicide. It was found that attempters tended to be young (adolescent or young-adults), unmarried, and females. They also tended to come from families that suffer from conflictual and disturbed parent-child relationships. Psychological problems, particularly depression, tend to be associated with attempted suicide. The major method of treatment used was medical drugs. All results were consistent with others reported in the Arab countries and internationally.
