The goal of this randomized control trial is to assess the effectiveness of a Brief Case Management (BCM) intervention aimed at promoting personal recovery and reducing the negative effects of coercion among people involuntarily admitted to a psychiatric hospital. The main questions it aims to answer are : * Does the Brief Case Management intervention reduce the incidence of involuntary readmission18 months after the initial involuntary hospitalisation? * What impact does the Brief Case Management intervention have on patients' involuntary readmission 6 months after the initial involuntary hospitalisation, as well as on their personal recovery, perceived coercion, satisfaction with treatment, and on their exposure to other forms of formal and informal coercion? Participants will be randomly assigned to either the control or the intervention group, accordingly they will be asked to take part in: Control Group: * Three evaluation sessions (baseline, 6 and 18 months follow-up); Intervention Group : * Three evaluation sessions (baseline, 6 and 18 months follow-up); * The 5 sessions of the brief case management intervention (6th session optional).
