Credits: 1 CE Hours

Military members and veterans experience significantly higher rates of self-injury and suicidal behaviors than the general population. Extant theories have attempted to explain the complex relationship between the two, and the researchers specifically identify theoretical constructs that link risk for suicide to history of non-suicidal self-injury. Other mental health problems, especially depression, are likely to contribute and might play a more important role than previously thought. Clinicians should consider the complex interplay between chronic mental health problems, non-suicidal self-injury, and suicide in military populations.
