The objective of this research was to reconstruct the psychosocial factors associated with the suicide of two family members using a qualitative approach to psychological autopsies. The mother of the deceased was interviewed regarding the precipitating factors, motivation, lethality, and intentionality of the cases. The results identified the presence of precipitants and motivators associated with love difficulties. As the method was hanging, lethality and intentionality were high. Additionally, previous suicidal ideation was documented in one case. It is concluded that couple relationships, and ruptures within them, seemed to be a significant factor, that suicides in a family generate vulnerability in its members to present suicidal behaviors, and that risk factors should continue to be studied to develop effective preventive strategies. El suicidio es un acto deliberado y complejo, que ocurre a partir de una diversidad de factores. Esta investigación, con enfoque cualitativo, tuvo el objetivo de reconstruir los factores psicosociales asociados al suicidio de dos integrantes de una familia a través del uso de autopsias psicológicas. Se entrevistó a la madre de los occisos sobre factores precipitantes, motivación, letalidad e intencionalidad de los difuntos. Como resultado, se encontró la presencia de precipitantes y motivantes asociados a dificultades de pareja. El método fue ahorcamiento, por lo que la letalidad fue elevada y en la intencionalidad se documentó la ideación suicida previa en un caso. Se concluye que las relaciones de pareja, y rupturas dentro de estas, son un factor significativo, que los suicidios en una familia generan vulnerabilidad en sus miembros a presentar comportamientos suicidas y que se deben continuar estudiando los factores de riesgo para el desarrollo de estrategias preventivas eficaces.
