METHODS qualitative study conducted with ten adolescents who attempted suicide and were attending a Centro de Atenção Psicossocial Infanto-Juvenil located in a city in the south of Brazil. Semi-structured interviews were held in July 2020 using WhatsApp. Data were analyzed according to Minayo's Content Thematic Analysis. RESULTS the adolescents' reports listed the reasons that triggered suicide attempts, such as changes in the adolescents' life cycle and violence, which led them to attempt suicide to solve problems. CONCLUSIONS Data analysis revealed the reasons that triggered suicide attempts from the adolescents' perspective and difficulties to cope with problems, probably explained by their lack of experience in dealing with frustrations and disappointments.
