It comprises two processes: 1. Questionnaire completion; 2. Intervention experiment. The questionnaire survey phase plans to recruit 2,000 participants. Instruments include: Self-Continuity Venn Task, Adolescent Life Events Scale (ASLEC), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Suicide Ideation Scale (SSI), Self-Injury Issues, State Anxiety Inventory (SAI), and Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS). The intervention experiment involves savoring group counseling, recruiting 80 participants (40 in the control group, 40 in the intervention group). Group counseling content includes pre-test, team building, savoring concept introduction, relaxation techniques, mindfulness practice, positive event recall, and post-test.
