However, there are constraints as such data were not col- lected. Future research could gather further information and employ multilevel modelling analysis to give further understanding into suicide attempters with mental illness. Further analysis could also employ in-depth analysis to explore how different diagnosis of mental illness might interact with various biopsychosocial risk and protective factors, as well as demographic factors in suicide risk analy- sis.
The result that suicide attempters more willing to seek help were more likely to be diagnosed with mental illness might seem counterintuitive, but consideration of literature on help-seeking behavior offers further insight into suicide attempts. Help-seeking behavior requires self-awareness of the problem, willingness to seek assistance, and social norms that encourage help-seeking [50]. Those willing to seek help might not have done so prior to the suicide attempt, due to
stigma. Fear of stigma is prevalent in Asian societies [23]. Possible factors preventing suicide attempters from seeking help might include lack of knowledge of available services and difficulty in taking the initiative to seek help [51]. Such factors could be explored in future research through in-depth interviews.
It is noteworthy that in our sample, 25% were diag- nosed with mental illness; this phenomenon is consistent with trends found in other Asian countries [17, 19]; this percentage is relatively low, as compared to Western coun- tries [20]. A recent Asian study found that a risk factor for repeated suicide attempts included somatic complaints, which suggested the possibility that due to fear of stigma [25], Asian suicide attempters might be more willing to report physical symptoms rather than psychiatric concerns [29, 33], which could then lead to underdiagnosis of mental illness and exacerbate the risk of repeated suicide attempts.
