Giving away prized possessions may signal that the individual thinks he or she will have no further need for the items,such as when a suicide plan has been formulated.Calling parents and crying do not provide clues to suicide,in and of themselves.Remaining in the dormitory would be an expected behavior because the patient has nowhere else to go.
