Abstract

• Over 700,000 people die by suicide each year globally • Up to 94.5 million people can be affected by suicide annually • People bereaved by suicide are at an increased risk of suicidal behaviour themselves • Posttraumatic growth (PTG), defined as personal improvement that occurs as a consequence of experiencing a traumatic or extremely challenging event or crisis, can occur following suicide bereavement • Only one systematic review and meta-analysis on posttraumatic growth following suicide bereavement has been conducted; this current updated review contains preliminary findings which build upon the original study (Levi-Belz et al., 2021)
