The current study was conducted to explore the relationship between suicidal ideas, depression, anxiety, resiliency, daily stresses and mental health among university students. 265 students of Tehran University were studied. They were asked to answer the Beck's depression and anxiety, suicidal ideation, mental health, daily stresses and resiliency questioners. Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise regression analyses were used for the data analysis. Suicidal ideations had a significant and negative relationship with resiliency. Anxiety, depression, mental health and daily stresses had a positive relationship with suicidal ideations. Regression analysis revealed that depression had the most contribution in predicting suicidal ideations while anxiety, mental health, Resiliency, and daily stresses were the next contributing factors, respectively. These variables could predict 21 percent of suicidal ideations altogether. Psychological problems and mental health issues and other factors such as resiliency and daily stresses play an important role in suicidal ideations.
