Mindfulness focuses on improving an individual’s ability to accept and be present in the current moment. Distress tolerance is geared toward increasing a person’s tolerance of negative emotion, rather than trying to escape from it. Emotion regulation strategies are used to manage and change intense emotions that are causing problems in a person’s life. Interpersonal effectiveness techniques allow a person to communicate with others in a way that is assertive, maintains self-respect, and strengthens relationships.
These all have a period where the bullet points previously do not.

These outcomes do not directly relate to the risk for suicide diagnosis. I like that they are included as an example but it did say "The nurse identified the following SMART expected outcomes related to the identified nursing diagnosis:" which implies that you are focusing on the priority risk for suicide diagnosis.
