• mood, such as anger, aggressiveness, irritability, anxiousness, restlessness
• emotional well-being, such as feeling empty, sad, hopeless
• behavior, such as loss of interest, no longer finding pleasure in favorite activities, feeling tired easily, thoughts of suicide, drinking excessively, using drugs, engaging in high-risk activities
• sexual interest, such as reduced sexual desire, lack of sexual performance
• cognitive abilities, such as inability to concentrate, difficulty completing tasks, delayed responses during conversations
• sleep patterns, such as insomnia, restless sleep, excessive sleepiness, not sleeping through the night
• physical well-being, such as fatigue, pains, headache, digestive problems.

• Family history. You’re at a higher risk for developing depression if you have a family history of depression or another mood disorder.
• Early childhood trauma. Some events affect the way your body reacts to fear and stressful situations.
• Brain structure. There’s a greater risk for depression if the frontal lobe of your brain is less active. However, scientists don’t know if this happens before or after the onset of depressive symptoms.
• Medical conditions. Certain conditions may put you at higher risk, such as chronic illness, insomnia, chronic pain, or attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
• Drug use. A history of drug or alcohol misuse can affect your risk.

Nursing Interventions	Rationale
Nursing Assessment
Identify the level of suicide precautions needed. If there is a high-risk, does a hospitalization requires? Or if there is a low risk, will the client be safe to go home with supervision from a family member or a friend? For example, does client: · Admit previous suicide attempts. · Abuse any substances. · Have no peers/friends. · Have any suicide plan.	A client with a high-risk will require a constant supervision and a safe environment.
Check for the availability of required supply of medications needed.	Normally, a suicidal client’s medical supply should be limited to 3-5 days.
Therapeutic Interventions
Encourage clients to express feelings (anger, sadness, guilt) and come up with alternative ways to handle feelings of anger and frustration.	Clients can learn alternative ways of dealing with overwhelming emotions and gain a sense of control over his/her life.
Contact the family, arrange for crisis counseling. Activate links to self-help groups.	Clients need a network of resources to help diminish personal feelings of helplessness, worthlessness, and isolation.
If, hospitalized, follow unit protocols.	There are different measures for the suicidal client in either the hospital, clinic, and community.
Implement a written no-suicide contract.	Reinforces action the client can take when feeling suicidal.

· The rise in depression diagnoses was highest in adolescents (ages 12 to 17) and millennials (ages 18 to 34): diagnosis rates increased 63% among adolescents and 47% among millennials over the three years. For those ages 35 to 49 and 50 to 64, increases were 26% and 23%, respectively.

· An important correlation was noted between depression and overall health. Those diagnosed with depression had a 27% lower overall health score than those without depression, as determined by the BCBS Health Index. Depression was associated with an increased likelihood of having one or more additional serious or chronic health conditions. Eighty-five percent of those with a depression diagnosis had one or more other health conditions; only 15% had depression alone.

• Jehovah's Witnesses are best known for their door-to-door preaching, distributing literature such as The Watchtower and Awake!, and for refusing military service and blood transfusions. They consider the use of God's name vital for proper worship. They reject Trinitarianism, inherent immortality of the soul, and hellfire, which they consider to be unscriptural doctrines. They do not observe Christmas, Easter, birthdays or other holidays and customs they consider to have pagan origins incompatible with Christianity.
• They consider secular society to be morally corrupt and under the influence of Satan, and most limit their social interaction with non-Witnesses.
