A sample of unipolar DSM-III-R major depressive suicide victims representing all suicides in current unipolar major depression within 1 year in Finland was carefully examined by psychological autopsy. The sample was divided into currently psychotic (n = 24) or non-psychotic (n = 46) subgroups, the psychotic subgroup was described and the two subgroups were compared. The majority (79%) of psychotic as well as nonpsychotic (87%) major depressive suicide victims were found to be complicated, comorbid cases. No major differences between the psychotic and nonpsychotic subgroups were found in sociodemographic features, comorbidity, clinical history or communication of suicide intent. However, the psychotic victims were more likely to have used violent suicide methods (88% vs. 59%).
