Psychosis and Substance Use in Adolescents and Young Adults

Psychosis and Substance Use in Adolescents and Young Adults

The New England ATTC, in partnership with Dr. Laura Grubb, MD, MPH is hosting a universal TA session titled, "Psychosis and Substance Use in Adolescents and Young Adults".  This training provides a clinically grounded overview of psychosis in adolescents and young adults, with a focused examination of the intersection between substance use and emerging psychiatric illness. 

Using a case-based approach, participants will review core features of psychotic disorders, DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for substance/medication-induced psychosis, and key epidemiologic trends. The session emphasizes practical strategies for differentiating primary psychotic disorders from substance-induced presentations, including clinical assessment, workup considerations, and risk of conversion to chronic psychotic illness.
