Mental Health Awareness Week is just over a month away 📅 This year, we’re bringing awareness to the fact that mental health is everything. It’s more than just a small part of our lives. It’s connected to every little thing we do, every place we go and every person around us.
Mental health is...
home work sleep money
environment
welfare education
physical health human rights housing
finances culture family friends everything

Seasonal affective disorder affects people differently at different times of year. Just because the days are getting brighter doesn’t mean you’re going to feel brighter. Sometimes it’s the opposite. Remember if you’re impacted by the changing season, you’re not alone 💙
A lot of us like the 
longer, warmer spring days.
But not all of us. 
We can still experience
 Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) in spring.

1 in 4 students at university don’t know where to find support for their mental health. Let’s work together to make sure that students know where to find the advice they by sharing this post today. #UniMentalHealthDay
A graphic with an illustration of someone dealing with anxieties, with text that reads: @StudentMindsOrg presents...
A guide to university:
Looking after your mental health at uniText reads: 

Tip #1: Keep an eye on your mental health

One of the best ways to help with your mental health difficulty is to keep an eye on your symptoms when they get worse. This might look like changes in appetite, sleep difficulties or something unique 
to you. 

Keeping track through a 
diary can help you notice 
these changes so that you
 can use strategies that 
help you during these
tough times.
Text reads: 

Tip #2: Prioritise your mental health

When there are periods of uncertainty and change, putting your mental health second is easy. However, prioritising your mental health is more important than ever, as your well-being should always come first. 

This can look like:
Putting your mental health above your studies
Taking breaks when you 
     need them 
Taking time for you
      and not checking social 
      media or the news
Text reads: Tip #3: Support is there
 for you

Your university will have student support services that can help you with your mental health. They can also help you manage your studies if you need to take a break from them. 

If you have reached out to your GP or mental health care team, it's important to remember you can rely on them too. 
Attend appointments and 
try to keep track of all 
the medication that you
 are taking, as it 
will help you.
