At this time individual maturity depends on individual development in previous times, one of which is the process of forming self-identity in adolescence. In the process of forming self-identity, it involves many factors that are realized or not realized until the individual enters this early adult period. In this process the individual will be prone to depression. One of the effects of depression is the tendency to commit suicide as an outlet for negative emotions. The method in this study uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological studyapproach and snowball sampling technique. The subjects in this study consisted of 3 people, 2 women and 1 man who were sufferers of depression. The data collection technique used was in-depth interviews, observation and the use of a psychological measurement tool, namely the BDI (Beck Depression Inventory) as an initial screening. The results of the study show that the dynamics of suicidal tendencies is caused by a sense of loss, besides that it is also used as a means to express negative emotions to other people. Most of the depressive factors that arise are family factors and past events. Based on Beck's theory (1985) thecognitive model of depression shown in this study is first they tend to viewthemselves and their future negatively, secondly they tend to place all experiences into one or two opposite categories, thirdly, subjects also experience a decreasein cognitive function which makes them cannot see any other alternative than suicide as a solution to the problem at hand.
