[Support group for hospitalised adolescents: support for growing up]

The theme of growing up is addressed through the presentation of the support group for around twenty hospitalised adolescents at the Maison de Solenn. In this weekly group, the subjects discussed are diverse in terms of their content and tone, depending on the atmosphere or changes: sharing daily life in hospital, the tastes and ideas of each participant, issues related to adolescence, to topics bordering on the philosophical or existential. The analysis of the themes discussed over the course of a year revealed that many provide the basis for thinking about the process of separation/individuation.
