Mental Health. Monthly Update, April 2022.

Key points

  • In the emergency room:

Among 11- to 17-year-olds and 18- to 24-year-olds, visits for suicide attempts, suicidal ideation, and mood disorders remain at high levels, comparable (for 11- to 14-year-olds) or even higher (for 15- to 17-year-olds and 18- to 24-year-olds) to those observed in early 2021. Visits for suicidal thoughts also remain at a high level, observed since early 2022, among adults aged 25–64 and, to a lesser extent, those aged 65 and older. Among smaller sample sizes, there is also an increase in visits for eating disorders among 15–17-year-olds.

  • In the SOS Médecins network:

All indicators remain at levels comparable to those of previous years.
