This article is part of the series “pathologies of freedom” dedicated to the understanding of the most frequent “neurotic disorders”, from the perspective of existential analysis. It treats on depression and suicide, since depression is one of the most common triggers of suicide, in its threefold ideation, attempt or execution. From an existential point of view, depression means the sinking of the central nucleus of existence. It ceases to make sense and projection in the world whether natural (Umwelt), social (Mitwelt) or personal (Eigenwelt). This relationship is analyzed through three cases, specific to each of these three worlds.
