Youth suicide is a significant public health problem in Low-and middle-income countries (LMIC), including India. It is a distinct phenomenon with various bio-psycho-social determinants. Despite this, comprehensive literature on this topic is lacking from India. Thus, the current paper aimed to review the available literature on youth-suicide from India and other LMIC, discusses the contentious issues, including potential solutions for the possible roadblocks, and provides recommendations for the national suicide-prevention policy and strategy (NSPPS) in the Indian context. We found that the magnitude of youth suicide in India is substantial with the distinct bio-psycho-social determinants. Although, youth-specific suicide prevention and therapeutic intervention do exist; its feasibility and effectivity in the Indian context are yet to be established. The is an urgent need for the NSPPS; experiences from other LMIC should be incorporated while framing such policies. More research is required from India in this area.

印度青少年自杀:国家自杀预防政策的批判性回顾和启示

青少年自杀是包括印度在内的低收入和中等收入国家 (LMIC) 的一个重大公共卫生问题。这是一种具有多种生物心理社会决定因素的独特现象。尽管如此,印度仍缺乏关于这一主题的综合文献。因此,本文旨在回顾印度和其他中低收入国家有关青少年自杀的现有文献,讨论有争议的问题,包括可能遇到的障碍的潜在解决方案,并为印度的国家自杀预防政策和战略(NSPPS)提供建议。印度的背景。我们发现,印度青少年自杀的严重程度与独特的生物心理社会决定因素有关。尽管针对青少年的自杀预防和治疗干预确实存在;其在印度的可行性和有效性还有待确定。这是对 NSPPS 的迫切需求;在制定此类政策时应吸收其他中低收入国家的经验。印度需要在这一领域进行更多研究。
