This research examined the relationship between Suicidal Ideation as well as Psychological Well-Being (self-acceptance, good relationships, autonomy, environmental mastery, personal development, and purpose in life), and Need for Achievement as well as Resilience. Even if machines are making people's lives simpler in this day of technological innovation, they also have a detrimental effect on people's physical and emotional well-being. The data was collected from sports players registered with different sports clubs. For this purpose Urdu translated scale, Brief Resilience Scale, Ryff's Scales of Psychological Well-being, and Brief Suicidal Ideation scale (BSIS) were used. Data was analyzed by SPSS. The results of the research indicated the association between suicidal thoughts and psychological well-being (outcome) and Need for Achievement (predictor) has been adversely attenuated by resilience. It is recommended that future researchers conduct longitudinal or mixed-design studies that combine qualitative and quantitative research designs, given the correlational nature of this study
