Within that broad orientation fall cases which Tatz categorises as, for instance, accidental or indirect suicide (the risk-runners); the slashers and self-mutilators who "kill" an offending part of the body; those making a statement about their desire for revenge or retaliation (political suicide); violence to others and then to self as an appeal for support and assistance; the termination of irremediable grief; suicide as the only way to exercise autonomy and to exercise personal sovereignty.
