“…The authors also posited that improving executive attention with brief MBIs may be possible. Raj et al (2019) used MBCT on adolescents to understand life orientation changes, life satisfaction, depression and suicidal ideation. MBCT helped in reducing ideation and enhancing life orientation and life satisfaction among adolescents.…”

“…Suicidality is not just determined by the presence of particular disorders or medical conditions but involves psychological factors that might cause such behaviour’s recurrence. Based on the review, it was found that mindfulness-based interventions have shown promising results in improving executive functioning (Chesin et al, 2016a), life orientation (Raj et al, 2019), over general memory (Hargus et al, 2010), ruminative responses (Forkmann et al, 2014; Chesin et al, 2016a), meta-awareness (Hargus et al, 2010), death anxiety (Nabipour et al, 2018) and attention (Britton et al, 2014; Chesin et al, 2016a). These attributes are equally important in understanding the psychological mechanisms through which suicidality can be addressed.…”

Background and objectives: Suicidal behaviour has been a persistent concern in medical as well as general settings. Many psychotherapeutic approaches have tried to address suicidal behaviour in different ways. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have garnered much attention in the last decade because of their treatment efficacy. This systematic review aimed to examine evidence-based research regarding the effectiveness of MBIs as a psychotherapy intervention on suicidality and to deliver suggestions that might help future research. Method: The identification of literature was made through an extensive search of the electronic databases, to extract studies relating to the efficacy of MBIs on addressing suicidal behaviour. Additional researches based on library sources were searched manually. The studies’ selection was based on a pre-determined inclusion and exclusion criteria as well as the quality of the studies. Results: The present review helped us identify 13 studies, including six randomised controlled trials, two controlled studies and five pre-post observational studies. The findings reported in the studies were mostly favourable to MBIs as an effective intervention strategy for suicidal behaviour. Conclusion: MBIs show promising effects as an intervention for suicidal behaviour. However, large scale, high-quality trials with active control, and long term intervention efficacy studies are needed to understand the mechanisms through which MBIs reduce suicidal behaviour.

“…Psychological interventions such as dialectical behavioral therapy, cognitive, and mentalization-based behavioral therapies have been found to be effective in preventing suicide in adults and adolescents. [57][58][59] Cognitive behavioral therapy has been found to reduce both repeated suicidal attempts and NSSH behaviors. 60 Other therapies such as emotion regulation group therapy and dynamic deconstructive psychotherapy have been found to be effective, though evidence is limited.…”

Background Suicide is the leading contributor to mortality in bipolar disorder (BD). A history of suicidal attempt is a robust predictive marker for future suicide attempts. Personality profiles and coping strategies are the areas of contemporary research in bipolar suicides apart from clinical and demographic risk factors. However, similar research in developing countries is rarer. Objectives The present study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with suicidal attempts in BD type I (BD-I). Materials and Methods Patients with BD-I currently in clinical remission (N = 102) were recruited. Sociodemographic details and the clinical data were collected using a semistructured pro forma. The psychiatric diagnoses were confirmed using the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview 5.0. The National Institute of Mental Health–Life Chart Methodology Clinician Retrospective Chart was used to chart the illness course. Presumptive Stressful Life Events Scale, Coping Strategies Inventory Short Form, Buss–Perry aggression questionnaire, Past Feelings and Acts of Violence, and Barratt Impulsivity scale were used to assess the patient’s stress scores, coping skills, aggression, violence, and impulsivity, respectively. Statistical Analysis Descriptive statistics were used for demographic details and characteristics of the illness course. Binary logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the predictors for lifetime suicide attempt in BD-I. Results A total of 102 patients (males = 49 and females = 53) with BD-I were included. Thirty-seven subjects (36.3%) had a history of suicide attempt. The illness course in suicide attempters more frequently had an index episode of depression, was encumbered with frequent mood episodes, especially in depression, and had a higher propensity for psychiatric comorbidities. On binary logistic regression analysis, the odds ratios (ORs) for predicting a suicide attempt were highest for positive family history of suicide (OR: 13.65, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.28–145.38, p = 0.030), followed by the presence of an index depressive episode (OR: 6.88, 95% CI: 1.70–27.91, p = 0.007), and lower scores on problem-focused disengagement (OR: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.56–0.92, p = 0.009). Conclusion BD-I patients with lifetime suicide attempt differ from non-attempters on various course-related and temperamental factors. However, an index episode depression, family history of suicide, and lower problem-focused engagement can predict lifetime suicide attempt in patients with BD-I.

“…Treatment for girls at high risk of suicidality overlaps significantly with those for menstrual-related distress, likely due to the high rate of comorbidity between the two as previously noted. Firstly, both CBT and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) techniques [22] are considered one of the most effective interventions for treating mood symptoms in youth. Additionally, SSRIs are often used in the treatment of moderate to severe depression in adolescents when therapy alone does not improve symptoms, as those have been shown to be an effective buffer against suicide risk [13].…”

Increased suicide in adolescent females calls for further study of potential risk and resiliency factors. Considering the relationship that menstrual cycle plays on mood and increased likelihood of suicidality in adult women, it is likely that a similar relationship is present in adolescents. The current review used PubMed and PsycInfo to assess articles related to menstrual cycle and suicide in adolescents. Limited data was present on the role that menstrual cycle and related disorders such as PMS and PMDD has on the worsening of mood symptoms and suicidal ideation and attempts, with minimal research conducted on adolescents. This review identifies a gap in research regarding premenstrual distress as a potential risk factor for suicidal ideation and attempts in adolescents. The present review suggests future routes for research in this area and the impacts that a better understanding of the complex relationship between menstrual cycle and suicide could provide in order to minimize the impact of menstrual distress on suicidality.
