Résumé:
Without the pretension of apprehending individual and logical reasons that rationally explain
what causes a subject to "escape" from the social bond that demonizes and even avoids
considering the existence of death as a constituent part of life, this work has as its general
objective, collect, on the basis of psychoanalytic theory, conscious and unconscious aspects of
"speeches" of people who committed suicide in search of understanding of their psyche of the
suffering that moves them to closing of only existence form that they actually know. These
subjects will be "heard" by the last messages left - in audio, video, letters, tickets and social
networking posts - as a testimony of their own lives. As research method Content Analysis was
used, of Laurence Bardin's perspective, specifically the techniques of categorization, inference
and discussion of the collected material. Parts from "speeches" of subjects were allocated in
categories, according to their content, aiming at a more didactic exposition and discussion.
Three categories formulated on the basis of the psychoanalytic theories of death drive,
narcissism and mourning and melancholy. After the analysis, inference and interpretation of
the material, the result of the research was discussed considering its relevance for diagnosis and
conduction of clinical treatments, of psychoanalytical reference, of suffering patients with or
without apparent suicidal ideation.
