Abstract
Sexuality in schizophrenia has been and still is a taboo subject, difficult to address, both for the patient and the clinician. Poor communication links are a major non-compliance factor, with schizophrenia requiring special attention in terms of therapeutic conduct, which requires a thorough evaluation. By nature of the disease, schizophrenic patients struggle to establish and maintain healthy intimate relationships. They frequently lack the psycho-social abilities required to create and sustain interpersonal connections.
