Life events can heighten emotional suffering related to the loss of a close relative or friend by suicide, while supportive social relationships may promote coping. We investigated the impact of stressful events and perceived social support on depressive and grief symptoms in 378 help-seeking Italians bereaved through suicide. While we did not observe a significant effect of interpersonal stressors, perceived social support did have a buffering role on the intensity of depressive symptoms but not of grief-related suffering. Focusing on expanding and capitalizing on clients' perceived social networks could strengthen postvention programs. Further research on the role of interpersonal factors is needed.
生活事件可能会加剧与自杀导致的近亲或朋友丧失相关的情感痛苦，而支持性的社会关系可能有助于应对。我们调查了应激事件和感知到的社会支持对 378 名意大利自杀丧亲者的抑郁和悲伤症状的影响。虽然我们没有观察到人际应激源的显著影响，但感知到的社会支持确实对抑郁症状的强度有缓冲作用，但对与悲伤相关的痛苦没有影响。关注扩展和利用客户感知到的社交网络可以加强预防自杀后的干预计划。需要进一步研究人际因素的作用。
