Brief Summary

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), "Sexual health is a state of physical, emotional, mental and social well-being in relation to sexuality, not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction or of infirmity. Sexual health requires a positive and respectful approach to sexuality and sexual relationships \[...\]".

The main objective is to show that a training intervention intended for psychiatric care teams and targeted on the question of the impact of psychiatric disorders and psychotropic drugs on the sexuality of young people, increases the proportion of young people with whom the question of sexual health is discussed (in connection with psychiatric disorders and, if applicable, with the taking of psychotropic treatment, while they are hospitalized for a psychiatric disorder in the clinics of the FSEF and receive, or not, psychotropic treatment ).

Detailed Description

Non-interventional multicenter prospective mixed study (quantitative and qualitative).

Research process in 3 phases:

1. Inventory with a mixed method evaluation (quantitative survey and qualitative survey),

* Step 1: quantitative survey with self-administered questionnaire offered to all patients attending psychiatric study care during the month of the assessment.

* Step 2: qualitative survey of young people and caregivers.

2. Design and implementation of an intervention adapted to the needs of the field (training for caregivers and tools for young people).

* Step 3: implementation of training programs for professionals based on data from phase 1 and preparation for interventions for young people.
