Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change in Suicide Visual Analog Scale scores from the previous daily assessment
Time Frame: Administered daily for eight consecutive days
The Suicide Visual Analog Scale The S-VAS assesses "urge to kill myself" using a horizontal line with anchors on the left reflecting "none" (score: 0) and on the right reflecting "extreme" (score: 100). The S-VAS is initially presented with the indicator on the "none" position, and non-movement of the indicator is followed by a prompt to remind the participant to move the indicator, if relevant, to ensure response accuracy. Higher scores are indicative of greater severity
Secondary Outcomes

- Change in Positive and Negative Affect Schedule - Short Form scores from the previous daily assessment(Administered daily for eight consecutive days)
