Overview

The primary goal of this clinical trial is to test if music-based intervention (STAMM-S) works for individuals with suicidal thoughts or behaviors. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can implementing specific music to listen to for 20 minutes a day for 25 days improve suicidality? * Can implementing education around the psychology of the medicine of music improve mental health outcomes? Participants will: * Listen to music given to them by the study team for 20 minutes a day for 25 days * Receive musical psychoeducation on how to improve mood using music

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change in Suicidality via Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (BSS/BSSI) Score

A 19-item scale with each item scoring from 0-2 rating an individual's suicidal thoughts, intent, and ideation. The total score ranges from 0 to 38. A higher score indicates more intense suicidal ideation and a low score indicates less intense suicidal ideation.

Time frame: Baseline, week 1, week 2, week 3, and post-trial interview (up to 25 days).

Change in Generalized Anxiety Disorder Status via Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) Score

A 7-item measure scaled 0-3 per item that measures symptoms of Generalized Anxiety Disorder. 0 would be no sign of anxiety and 3 would indicate high level of anxiety over the last two weeks.

Time frame: Baseline, week 1, week 2, week 3, and post-trial interview (up to 25 days).

Change in Depression Status via Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) Score

A 9-item questionnaire that measures symptoms of depression on a 0-3 scale over the last two weeks. 0 would indicate "not at all", 1 would indicate "several days", 2 would indicate "most of the days", and a 3 would indicate "nearly every day".

Time frame: Baseline, week 1, week 2, week 3, and post-trial interview (up to 25 days).

Secondary Outcomes

Change in Music Listening Purpose via Healthy-Unhealthy Music Scale (HUMS) - Healthy Score

Participants respond to a 5-question survey. The scale ranges from 5 to 25. For the healthy scale, a higher rating means a healthier use of music.

Time frame: Baseline, end of study (up to 25 days).

Change in Music Listening Purpose via Healthy-Unhealthy Music Scale (HUMS) - Unhealthy Score

Participants respond to an 8-question survey. The scale ranges 8 to 40. A higher rating for the unhealthy scale indicates a more maladaptive use of music.
