Abstract/Summary
The purpose of this study is to discover the lived experiences of family members in adapting to a suicide attempt. A descriptive method using a qualitative approach was employed through semi-structured interviews, and themes were extracted through the use of Thematic Analysis as the framework for analysis and Interpretative Phenomenogical Analysis as the lens of research strategy. Results presented two clustered themes which are emotional struggles and adaptation process. Findings of the study presented adaptation as a dynamic process on which individual capacity of adapting and communication within the family are of primary importance in collectively adapting from the adversity of suicide attempt and enhancing the system of the family.
