COURSE SEARCH

Have you been feeling stressed, anxious, sad, hopeless, irritable, or unfocused? Have you noticed a friend who might be feeling this way? It’s okay to answer “yes” if that’s the case. These feelings could be a normal part of the college experience, but they could also be something that requires help to overcome. If you were in physical pain, you’d get it checked out. Mental health is just as important.

Whether you are searching for tips to improve your emotional health, worried about a potential mental health problem, looking to help a friend, or interested in becoming an advocate, a great first step is to visit these online resources for college students.

No one has to go it alone.  Student Wellness is available to help students navigate the process of choosing care and support and to provide direct counseling and referrals to meet a student’s needs.

Remember, if you are contemplating suicide and are at risk of harming yourself, call 911 or 1-800-273-TALK (8255).

Through Half of Us, mtvU and The Jed Foundation aim to initiate a public dialogue to raise awareness about the prevalence of mental health issues and connect students to the appropriate resources to get help.

The Jed Foundation

World Suicide Prevention Day
The World Health Organization estimates that over 800,000 people die by suicide each year – that’s one person every 40 seconds. Up to 25 times as many again make a suicide attempt. The tragic ripple effect means that there are many, many more people who have been bereaved by suicide or have been close to someone who has tried to take his or her own life. And this is happening in spite of the fact that suicide is preventable.
