That Jocasta hangs herself and that Oedipus blinds himself, loses his job and is placed under house arrest are what happens to Jocasta and Oedipus in the last part of "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta realize that much more than husband and wife they are son and mother. They also realize that Jocasta's first husband is killed albeit unknowingly by Jocasta's second husband, Oedipus. That knowledge causes Jocasta to hang herself and Oedipus to blind himself, lose his royal powers and residence, and suffer house arrest until divine will indicates whether he is to be executed or exiled for his criminal act and immoral behavior.
