There was no evidence for significant differences in features of SA or NSSI in those reporting EAU relative to the full sample. Across individuals reporting EAU and those with later onset, the most common methods of NSSI were cutting (67.88%) and burning (21.17%), while the most commonly reported methods for SA were ingestion of medication (56.10%) and bleeding, such as cutting wrists or stabbing self (20.70%). Further, for SA, 56% of individuals reporting EAU (versus 52.30% of later-onset users) reported intent to die and 45.33% (versus 53.91% of later-onset users) of individuals reported requiring treatment following the SA. Depressed mood, followed by being drunk, were the two most commonly reported emotional states prior to SA in the sample, regardless of EAU.
