The sample included three subjects with suicidal attempt, older than 18 years, attended as outpatients for an injure self inflicted last year, and three psychiatrists treating these patients. Information was obtained by individual interviews with previous informed consent. An argumentative discourse analysis was carried out to find meaning given by participants to bioethics principles and possible conflicts between them. Conflicts between beneficence and autonomy were related to the benefit of treatment, respect to patients values and beliefs, among others.
