Abstract

Currently, we live in conditions known as a risk society, in which, apart from various amenities, our everyday life and related attitudes and behaviors are exposed to increasing uncertainty and crises – including suicidal behavior. The subject discussed in this report is set in the context of the confusion of contemporary youth and concerns the suicidality of young people as one of the manifestations of social and identity disintegration and the breakdown of social control. The study summarizes the results of one of the stages of the author’s research, in this case as a questionnaire. The opinions of high school students about suicide, including its determinants, consequences, the range of impact on the youth community and post-emergency actions, are presented.
