Abstract
We examined daily fluctuations in social support among 54 adults who attempted suicide in the past year. Participants rated social support daily for 28 days (981 total observations). Social support varied considerably from day to day (ICC = 0.44), suggesting that among suicide attempters, social support is a dynamic construct.
