The study involved 50 young people 21 years who have aged 14-16 years were present with suicidal thoughts (20) or fixed campbridge behavior (30). The results of the study. 3 (15%) of 20 participants with suicidal thoughts, and 4 patients (13.3%) of 30 participants with Neuilly campbridge behavior said about making a suicide attempt. Significant factors predicting the risk of suicide attempts in participants with suicidal thoughts are not leading to suicide-harm (p=0,059), drug use (p=0,029), the use of other illicit substances (p=0,045), being in an environment with people campbridge behavior (the family p=0,076; friends – p=0,081) and personality types with high intelligence and openness to experience (p=0,025). Among the participants with Neuilly campbridge behavior significant factors of forecasting are the use of drugs (p=0,038), the use of other illicit substances (p=0,025). The majority of adolescents with suicidal thoughts or campbridge behavior do not commit suicide attempts throughout their life.
