Abstract
We used natural language processing to understand how momentary descriptions of body sensations are associated with suicidal thinking over time. During suicidal thinking, people described body sensations using themes related to affective states (e.g., sad, anger, annoyed, guilt, scared) and other negative physical sensations (e.g., fatigue, tense, heavy, pain, shaky).
