Teoretična izhodišča: Dejanje samomora pomeni ubiti samega sebe. V diplomskem delu so predstavljeni pojmi, kot so samomorilno vedenje, vpliv posledic ekonomskih razmerij na povečanje samomorov, na povečanje duševnih bolezni, na brezposelnost in načini zmanjševana samomorov. Samomor je tema, o kateri ljudje nočejo govoriti in jo potiskajo v ozadje. Metodologija: Diplomsko delo je teoretičnega značaja. Uporabili smo deskriptivno metodo dela, s študijem domače in tuje strokovne literature. Rezultati: Pregled literature je pokazal, da posledice ekonomskih razmer vplivajo na povečanje samomorilnosti, na brezposelnost in na povečanje števila duševnih bolezni. Kakovost življenja ljudi se zaradi slabih ekonomskih razmer znižuje. Prihaja do vse večje brezposelnosti, socialne izključenosti, revščine, kar vodi v stres, in posledično v povečanje številnih duševnih motenj. Z njimi je povezana tudi večja stopnja samomorilnosti. Medicinska sestra je tista, ki v okviru promocije duševnega zdravja deluje na vseh treh nivojih: primarnem, sekundarnem in terciarnem, prav tako pa tudi prepoznava nevarnost samomorilnosti in deluje v primerih poskusov samomora.
