The Impact of Cognitive‐Behavioral Therapy on Suicidal Ideation and Despair Among Individuals With a History of Suicide Attempts: A Randomized Controlled Trial
The study demonstrated the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral therapy within the intervention group, resulting in notable improvements in suicidal ideation and despair symptoms. Consequently, cognitive-behavioral therapy, through mechanisms such as acceptance, mindfulness, present-focused awareness, non-judgmental observation, and avoidance of cognitive distortions, holds promise in reducing suicidal ideation and despair among individuals with a history of suicide attempts.
