Religious and ecclesiastical possibilities of auto-aggressive behavior prevention: a suicidologist's view

The article is devoted to the analysis of the possibilities of interaction between clinical suicidology and the Church Institute. The analysis of possible scenarios of effective friendly work that can increase the effectiveness of preventive measures aimed at reducing the indicators of suicidal and non-suicidal auto-aggression is carried out. It is seen as necessary to increase the anti-suicidal work of the clergy further, to increase their level of suicidal alertness, to create standardized logistics for an auto-aggressive parishioner and clear schemes of interaction with the resources of the medical service. The issue of faith, the Church and the anti-suicide barriers they create is certainly interesting and actual. The prevalence and depth of the social integration of the Church institution is the widest opportunity to create potential primary anti-crisis "cells", and competent and complementary interaction with the crisis medical service is the key to the future effectiveness of preventive work.
