    Open AccessKatie Lewis, Nicole M Cain et al.ARTICLEJournal of Clinical Psychology2026

    Psychic pain (PsyPn) refers to intense emotional suffering that is experienced as both unbearable and irreversible. PsyPn has been shown in cross‐sectional studies to be associated with greater depression, distress, and suicide risk. Although PsyPn is frequently discussed as a primary driver of suicide, few studies have evaluated its short‐term predictive value for detecting changes in risk, and few have examined how PsyPn influences risk in inte…

  • Longitudinal Development of Reasons for Living and Dying With Suicide Attempters

    Open AccessAnja Gysin-Maillart, Anja C Gysin-Maillart et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2022

    The results confirm the importance of RFD within the suicidal process and show that the number of RFD can be further reduced over the period of 24 months with short interventions such as ASSIP. The relevance of number of RFL in the suicidal process, as protective factor, was not confirmed. In the subgroup of patients whose RFD did not decrease over a long period of time, there is a particularly high risk of suicidal ideation/behavior. Clinical in…

  • Embedding an Evidence-Based Model for Suicide Prevention in the National Health Service

    Open AccessSophie Brown, Zaffer Iqbal et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2020

    Despite the improved understanding of the determinants of suicide over recent decades, the mean suicide rate within the United Kingdom (UK) has remained at 10 per 100,000 per annum, with about 28% accessing mental health services in the 12 months prior to death. In this paper, we outlined a novel systems-level approach to tackling this problem through objectively differentiating the level of severity for each suicide risk presentation and providi…
