**Go ipolaya** ke tiragolo ya go ipolaya ka boomo. Malwetsi kgotsa makoa a tlhaloganyo —a a akaretsang go tshwenyega thata mo maikutlong, bolwetse jwa go tshwenyega thata mo maikutlong, autism, schizophrenia, mathata a botho, mathata a go tlhobaela le go dirisa diritibatsi ka tsela e e sa siamang—go akaretsa le go tshwakgolwa ke bojalwa le go dirisa dipilisi tsa benzodiazepine —ke dilo tse di ka nnang kotsi. Dipolao dingwe ke ditiro tse di dirwang ka go sa akanyetse ka ntlha ya go ngomoga pelo, tse di jaaka go tswa mo mathateng a madi, mathata a botsalano a a tshwanang le go kgaogana, kgotsa go kgerisiwa. Ba ba kileng ba leka go ipolaya ba mo kotsing e kgolo ya go leka go ipolaya mo nakong e e tlang. Maiteko a a atlegang a go thibela go ipolaya a akaretsa go fokotsa go fitlhelela mekgwa ya go ipolaya—e e jaaka ditlhobolo, diritibatsi le botlhole; go alafa malwetsi a tlhaloganyo le go dirisa diritibatsi ka tsela e e sa siamang; go bega ka kelotlhoko ga metswedi ya dikgang ka go ipolaya; le go tokafatsa maemo a itsholelo. Le fa megala ya mathata e tlwaelegile, ga e ise e ithutiwe sentle.

Mokgwa o o dirisiwang thata wa go ipolaya o farologana go ya ka mafatshe, mme bontlha bongwe jwa one bo amana le go nna teng ga ditsela tse di nang le matswela. Mekgwa e e tlwaelegileng ya go ipolaya e akaretsa go kalediwa, go tshelwa botlhole jwa dibolaya-ditshenekegi, le go dirisa ditlhobolo. Go ipolaya go ne ga baka dintsho di le 828 000 mo lefatsheng lotlhe ka ngwaga wa 2015, e leng koketsego go tswa go dintsho di le 712 000 ka ngwaga wa1990. Seno se dira gore go ipolaya e nne selo sa bo lesome se se bakang dintsho tse dintsi mo lefatsheng lotlhe.

Selekanyo se se ka nnang 1.5% ya batho ba swa ka go ipolaya. Mo ngwageng o o rileng seno se ka nna lesome le Blanc bobedi mo bathong ba le 100 000. Dielo tsa go ipolaya ka kakaretso di kwa godimo mo banneng go na le mo basading, go simolola ka makgetlo a le 1.5 mo mafatsheng a tlhabologang go ya go makgetlong a le 3.5 mo mafatsheng a tlhabologileng. Go ipolaya ka kakaretso go tlwaelegile thata mo bathong ba ba fetang dingwaga di le masome a supa le fa go ntse jalo, mo mafatsheng mangwe, batho ba dingwaga tse di fa gare ga lesome le botlhano le masome a mararo ke bone ba ba mo kotsing e tona Yuropa e ne e na le dipalo tse di kwa godimo thata tsa go ipolaya go ya ka dikgaolo ka ngwaga wa 2015. Go fopholediwa gore go na le di le 10 go ya go di le 20 dimilione di le dimilione tse di sa bolayeng tsa maiteko a go ipolaya ngwaga le ngwaga. Maiteko a go ipolaya a a sa bolayeng a ka baka dikgobalo le bogole jwa nako e telele. Mo lefatsheng la Bophirima, maiteko a tlwaelegile thata mo bašweng le mo basading.

Megopolo ka go ipolaya e ile ya tlhotlhelediwa ke ditlhogo tse di anameng tsa botshelo tse di jaaka bodumedi, tlotlo le bokao jwa botshelo. Ditumelo tsa ga Aborahame ka tlwaelo di tsaya go ipolaya e le tlolomolao mo Modimong, ka ntlha ya tumelo mo boitshepong jwa botshelo. Ka nako ya bosamurai kwa Japane, mofuta mongwe wa go ipolaya o o bidiwang seppuku ( *harakiri* ) o ne o tlotliwa e le tsela ya go duelela go palelwa kgotsa e le tsela ya go ipelaetsa. Sati, e leng tlwaelo e e neng e thibetswe ke British Raj, e ne e lebeletse gore motlholagadi wa Moindia a ipolaye mo molelong wa phitlho ya monna wa gagwe, e ka tswa e le ka go rata kgotsa ka fa tlase ga kgatelelo ya balelapa la gagwe le setšhaba. Go ipolaya le go leka go ipolaya, le mororo pele go ne go se kafa molaong, ga go tlhole go ntse jalo mo mafatsheng ka bontsi tsa Bophirima. E santse e le tlolomolao mo mafatsheng mangwe. Mo lekgolong la bo masome a mabedi le la bo masome a mabedi le bongwe la dingwaga, go ipolaya go ile ga dirisiwa mo makgetlong a a sa tlwaelegang e le tsela ya go ipelaetsa, mme go thunya ka dibomo ka kamikaze le go ipolaya go ile ga dirisiwa e le leano la sesole kana la borukhutlhi.
