“…The SRAS developed by Sun et al 19 has satisfactory psychometric properties in measuring suicide recovery ability. It is a 15-item questionnaire that measures 3 factors of suicide recovery, namely: (1) Self-awareness of the value of life; (2) Utilization of coping strategies; and (3) Efforts being exerted to live a normal and satisfying life.…”

The primary aim of suicidology is to understand the phenomenon of suicide by increasing its predictability and prevention to reduce the suicide rate. However, the rate of suicide remained obstinately high. This phenomenological study explored the different perspectives of 5 suicide attempt survivors and 7 mental health professionals on suicide recovery and its process. Phenomenological methods were used to analyze the participants' lived experiences through reduction, description, and finding the essence. Four essential emergent elements elucidate these perspectives, implying the general status of the current suicide healthcare system, vital in understanding suicide and suicide recovery, namely: (1) contextual elements: factors that describe how the participants view suicidality and suicide recovery; (2) facilitative elements: elements that lead to and affect the youths' suicide recovery; (3) impeding elements: factors that hinder suicide recovery; and (4) procedural elements: conditions that pertain to the steps in suicide management and intervention program. By integrating the findings of this current phenomenological study with the Inflorescence Model of Suicide Recovery, a suicide recovery-focused paradigm for suicide care and management was conceptualized. Exploring suicide recovery and its process found that there are different perspectives on suicide among suicide attempt survivors and mental health professionals; thereby, showing the gaps or cracks that exist in the health care system. This fragmentation results in deaths of suicide despite psychological and psychiatric treatments. Thus, the findings were used to conceptualize the Inflorescence Suicide Management Program (ISMP) that hopes to contribute to establishing a structured, systemic, and collaborative health care system.

ObjectiveSuicide resilience is gaining increasing attention from researchers because of its potential role in preventing suicide. However, it has not been clearly analyzed, and there are various meanings and terms regarding this issue. The purpose of this analysis, therefore, was to conceptualize the concept of suicide resilience.MethodsWalker and Avant's method of concept analysis was used to identify the antecedents, attributes, and consequences of suicide resilience. The literature was searched using PubMed, PsychINFO, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, CNKI, and WanFang databases with no limitation on publication date. The search included peer-reviewed journal articles and dissertations related to suicide resilience published in English or Chinese.Results52 articles were identified to provide information for this concept analysis. Five defining attributes of suicide resilience were identified: social support, coping strategies, psychological capital, meaning in life, and sense of responsibility. Antecedents of suicide resilience were high suicide risk events, and consequences of suicide resilience were keeping vulnerable individuals stay away from or overcoming suicidality.ConclusionsThe result of the analysis provided a more clear definition of suicide resilience. The identified defining attributes, antecedents, and consequences can be further tested and used to develop potential interventions. Future research is needed and will help to advance our understanding of the scope.
