<\/span>Abstract<\/span><\/h2>\n

Suicide is a serious public health concern with far-reaching social, psychological, and economic effects. This study explored the precipitating factors of suicide attempts, with particular focus on parental pressure. A qualitative descriptive exploratory design was used, involving semi-structured interviews with 13 participants aged 20\u201348 years who had previously attempted suicide. Interviews were digitally recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed thematically using MAXQDA 20 software. Two major themes emerged: social\/family issues, including mistrust, wasted resources, and parental pressure; and psychological issues, including adverse childhood experiences, emotional breakdown, and difficult life pursuits. Findings suggest that suicide attempts are rarely the result of a single cause but rather reflect complex interactions of familial expectations and psychological distress. The study emphasizes the urgent need for greater awareness of suicide triggers and warning signs, along with culturally sensitive health education and support strategies, to encourage timely help-seeking and reduce suicide attempts.<\/p>
