The purpose of this study is to present a path model that can explain the suicidal ideation of low income earners who are suffering from socioeconomic difficulties. The subjects of the study were 359 people who agreed to participate in this study among the 500 selected by the allocation sampling of all the basic livelihood recipients aged 19 and over in the metropolitan area. The collected data were estimated using the SPSS 22.0 program and AMOS 22.0. As a result, suicidal ideation showed a direct effect on suicide attitude (β= .117, p <.05), drinking (β=.096, p <.05), depression (β=.593, p <.001) The variance explained by all the variables influencing was 45.7%. The mediating effect of stress, depression, drinking, and suicidal attitude was found to be significant in the effect of health status on suicidal ideation.
