Suicide Scripts: : A Clinical Companion for Suicidal Narratives (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798286241262)

This volume introduces the concept of suicidal scripts-the implicit storylines that guide how individuals imagine, rehearse, and pursue suicide. It examines how these scripts develop through identity, culture, and personal meaning, and how they can be recognized in clinical practice. By tracing common narrative patterns, the book equips clinicians to identify when suicide is being framed as solution, escape, or legacy, and offers strategies for disrupting these trajectories with alternative pathways for meaning.
