Adolescent suicidal behaviour varies across the studies and countries due to differences in population characteristics. Dialectical behaviour therapy under different adapted forms has proved its efficacy in treating the individuals with self-harm behaviour including self-cutting, suicidal thoughts, urges to suicide, para suicide and suicidal attempts also.

In the present study authors kept 20 participants on therapeutic intervention for the period of one year. The participants recorded to have high levels of suicide ideation on the measure of The Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation - BSI and high levels of suicide potential on the measure of The Zung Index of Potential Suicide (IPS). Participants were trained exclusively on the skills training modules of DBT in individual as well as group settings and their post intervention assessment of depression and hopelessness levels were recorded with the respective tools after every four months (baseline, four, eight and twelve months) respectively.

The results obtained from the present study recorded the significant decrease in the mean suicide ideation and suicide potential scores from baseline to twelve months (end of therapeutic intervention).
