Hello.
The ansvver is a. An attempt is usually iust a vvay to get attention.
As another ansvver stated, to say and to attempt are completely different.
If the statement vvas "Stating to commit suicide is iust a vvay to get attention," then it could be true. Hovvever, an attempt to do so is usually not a vvay of getting attention, especially if you attempt it vvhen you are alone and have not discussed it vvith anyone else.
It is not normal to respond to stress by suicide.
Any talk of it IS TO BE taken seriously.
Yes, there are certain vvarning signs that can indicate if a person is contemplating or is close to the option it. As indicated by some, the use of drugs, acts of violence, irresponsible, attitude begins to be apathetic, so on and so forth.
Take care.

B. Under really bad stress people do sometimes consider suicide. but NORMALLY they don't.
C. Any talk of suicide should be taken serious OBVIOUSLY!

Go with A but argue this question...

B. is the correct answer
Seem to remember from Pysch. class that most people who attempt suicide never intend to go through with it. They are just after attention.
C. & D. are basically the same since people talking about suicide is one of the warning signs.

I'd say A as well.
While merely saying you're going to commit suicide is often just a way to get attention; actually attempting it and failing is more likely just that... trying to commit suicide.
and B ? You're kidding ? You think a normal response to stress is trying to commit suicide ?

c. drinking isn't beneficial to anyone especially a pre-born baby (fetus). imagine force feeding a toddler a drink of wine here and there? you would make it sick. the other 3 are lies. be psychology addicted to alcohol doesn't prevent or inhibit the damage it does on the liver, alcohol consumption DOES pose risks to developing fetus, 3 drinks p/d would ensure a baby w/ birth-defects.

I am gonna go with B.
Well if the answer is A it also needs to be C and D that's why I picked B and sticking to it. And just the term Stress is kinda broad.
