First seen Mar 24, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This study tested a smartphone-based program to help veterans with serious mental illness (like PTSD, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia) who struggle to recognize their own emotions—a condition called alexithymia. The goal was to see if improving emotion awareness could reduce suicide risk. Only 11 veterans took part before the study ended early, so results are limited.
