This study investigates the relationship between comorbidity of depression with other problems in personal or interpersonal functioning and severity of suicidal ideation. A number of variables are used as covariates, and a number of mechanism variables are included as a means to control for possible biases introduced by missing data. Results suggest that the interactive comorbidity of depression and problems with self‐esteem is a significant predictor of severity of suicidal ideation, that this relationship differs across men and women, and that the interactive comorbidity of depression with aggression and with alcohol abuse are significant predictors of severity of suicidal ideation
