The act of causing ones own DEATH.
POSITIVE: taking ones own life with purpose and intention.
NEGATIVE: not doing what is necessary to escape death (not leaving a burning building; stopping insulin treatments).
DIRECT: having the intention of causing ones own death, either as an end, or as a means to an end (to avoid ruin or disgrace, or escape condemnation).
INDIRECT: (and not usually called suicide) death is not necessarily desired, but one commits an act which courts death, as in tending someone with SARS knowing that one may succumb to the same illness.
