Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether early integrated prophylactic combined medical and psychological outpatient treatment is associated with a better prognosis in patients with severe unipolar and bipolar affective disorders than standard treatment

Subjects Patients currently discharged from first second or third hospitalisation ever from psychiatric department with a diagnosis of severe single depressive episoderecurrent depression or with a diagnosis of manicmixed episode or bipolar disorder
