It could be stated as thoughts, visions, creativity and imaginations regard to suicidal behavior emerges to take one’s own life (Raue et al., 2006). The present study was aimed to identify the psychosocial risk factors of suicidal ideation among adolescents in Chitral. The sample consisted of 7 female adolescents from different district of Chitral with age range of 15 to 20 years. Through purposive sampling the data was collected and the instrument used was semi structured interviews. Nineteen sub themes were emerged that were related to psychosocial risk factors of suicidal ideation. Our result demonstrated that family related problems, family rivalry, relative interference and education related problems were common among them. Furthermore, personal crisis like hopelessness and helplessness were leading thoughts to suicidal ideations whereas anxiety and perceived burdensomeness were novel findings in this research. Moreover, these psychosocial factors like, societal pressure and significance of family and relatives’ interference were negatively affecting the adolescents’ mental as well as social lives. The novel findings were there was an extreme generational gap between parent and children as well as education that children were more educated than the parents. These were the mere apprehensions that were disrupting the wellbeing of the adolescents. | |
