As psychoses can have a long-term impact, they need to be diagnosed as quickly as possible in order to provide appropriate care and avoid the onset of comorbid complications. As general practitioners are often the first to be approached, it is important that they think about this diagnosis in young patients, even if the manifestations are often atypical or if patients are reluctant to talk about it. Specialized programs have sprung up all over the world, staffed by mobile teams and professionals specialized in this type of treatment, with far superior results at a lower overall cost than the usual treatments. In the absence of a clear national policy in this area, Switzerland remains poorly equipped, although successful programs do exist in some regions.
