This is my attempt to extract tips from your research study (first link in the post): **Intro:** * The study found that a significant proportion of adults who stutter (**67.9%** in the sample) reported experiencing suicidal ideation to some degree * A substantial number indicated that their thoughts of suicide were related to stuttering. This suggests that stuttering is a significant factor contributing to suicidal ideation in adults who stutter **Tips:** * focusing on reducing adverse impact of stuttering, including addressing negative thoughts and feelings related to stuttering or suicidal thoughts * focusing on reducing negative reactions to stuttering * avoiding or mitigating risk factors for suicidal ideation * recognizing risk factors (such as, recurrent negative thinking patterns (RNT), depression, social isolation, and low self-esteem) * bolstering protective factors (e.g., increasing self-worth, enhancing network support, appropriate mental health professionals, National Suicide Prevention Lifeline) * addressing feelings of belonging or being a burden, variability over time, and triggers - to change suicidal thoughts over time * analyzing triggers to suicidal thoughts, such as, changes in fluency, adverse life events, illness, negative thoughts, and work-related challenges: 1. ridicule, and discrimination due to stuttering 2. feelings of wasted or stolen life experiences because of stuttering 3. chronic physical illnesses and family-related stress 4. frustration from a bad day of stuttering and the lack of hope for improvement 5. a sense of worthlessness and unfulfilled potential 6. stress, anxiety, grief, friend problems, and romantic relationship issues 7. experiences of abuse and feelings of worthlessness 8. fear of being looked at differently due to stuttering 9. negative reactions and judgments from others 10. reminders of inadequacy due to speech difficulties 11. perceptions of others that limit opportunities due to stuttering * managing suicidal thoughts, including hobbies, exercise, spirituality, music, and other distractions to improve mental health and divert focus from suicidal thoughts * considering the potential consequences of actions, such as the impact on friends, family, and loved ones. Reflecting on the harm it could cause to others * managing or coping with suicidal thoughts including lifestyle changes, therapy, positive changes in self-perception, and the passage of time * encouraging open discussions about suicidal ideation within the stuttering community and among professionals - to reduce stigma and increase awareness
