Different experiences of the ‘wish to die’ considering the frequency of occurrence of the phenomenon and the existence or not of hasten death ideation, in a sample of 201 Spanish patients (*). *We consider that a patient has experienced the ‘wish to die’ if he/she mentions having experienced it at some time. When this experience occurs every day or almost every day, we consider it a ‘desire to die’. The idea of ‘hastening death’ might be present occasionally in both experiences, and may be either hypothetical or consistent.
