| Résumé : | The transition from adolescence to adulthood is a period rich in change but confusing at the same time. It’s an essential step for youngsters and most of them will get over it and sail on towards autonomy. Unfortunately, some of them will get thrown off track because this period is also a window of risk for emerging psychiatric issues. People with pre-existing vulnerabilities, a stress burden throughout their life or an insecure or unsupportive environment are more at risk of showing psychiatric symptoms. Young adults with undiagnosed neurodevelopmental disorders are more likely to suffer during this time of their life. By being cautious about changes in their patient’s behavior and with a global approach focused on his life path, vulnerabilities, and environment, by collaborating with services familiar to his age and issues, the general practitioner can make a major contribution to improving the young adult’s mental health. |
