Background: Individuals, who suffer from severe mental illnesses (SMI), such as bipolar disorder (BD), schizophrenia (SCZ), and major depressive disorder (MDD), are more likely to engage in risky sexual behavior. A severe mental illness can lead to a decrease in impulse control, a reduction in cognitive function and memory, and a psychosocial impairment that increases risky sexual behavior. Risky sexual behavior (RSB) can lead to health problems such as sexually transmitted infections, including HIV/AIDS, early pregnancy, and unplanned pregnancies.
