Psychotherapy with Suicidal Patients pdf free download. It seems logical that before we consider what the psychotherapy of a suicidal person ought to be that we have some common understanding of the suicidal state itself.

But perhaps nowhere is there as insightful a description of suicide in as few words as that found in the opening paragraph of Melville’s Moby-Dick: “a damp and drizzly November in my soul.” For that is what, metaphorically, most suicide is: a dreary and dismal wintry gale within the mind, where the vital issue that is being debated is whether to try to stay afloat in a stormy life or willfully to go under to nothingness.
