Grinding Stone, an Unusual Tool for Suicide in the Psychological Background: A Case Report
Selecting unusual and uncommon means for suicide may be rooted in psychiatric disorders.
Herein, we report a case of suicide attempt occurring with a grinding stone as an unusual tool for suicide. After surgical repair of the injury and owing to a suspicion of psychological problems, psychiatric consultation was requested to rule out the possibility of borderline personality disorder, brief psychotic disorder, and major depression with psychotic features.
The presence of psychotic patterns and behaviors, especially auditory hallucination and depressed mood, influence suicide attempts. The selection of uncommon tools emphasizes the need for psychiatric consultants to prevent repeated suicide attempts effectively in the same conditions.
