LSE Peer Support

The London School of Economics' Peer Support service. Get in touch if you could use an open ear! Informal, confidential, empathetic. No problem is too small.

A real pleasure to train these wonderful people to be our 2019-20 peer supporters. They (plus 6 continuing supporters from this year) will be there to listen and support any LSE student next year. Photo of the whole group to follow in September, watch out for them

Meanwhile, congratulations to all those coming to LSE this fall! 🎉 🎉 You deserve it. We can’t wait to welcome you all and please contact our on campus Peer Support student team to help you with any issues you may have-especially during Freshers!

Good luck to all those getting their #ALevelResults today! Whatever happens- remember to take it easy😊

Rarely in my experience in #MentalHealth & #eatingdisorders services was I asked, “what are your strengths?” Focusing on deficits might help identify problems but what about identifying resources to draw upon? Also, strengths & weaknesses are never one’s own- context is key.

#CillianMurphy cannot wait to see Grief is the Thing with Feathers next year... broke my heart too when I read it, and your performamces in ballyturk and misterman were mind blowing. Go Crow :) https://t.co/q5BektOYIQ

@BreneBrown Congrats Brene, after watching your TEDtalk and reading a couple of your books, I finally managed to kick the booze this year (still working on the banana nut muffins). Looking forward to reading this too

75% of mental health difficulties develop by mid-20s. With most uni students this age, there's a high chance of difficulties at uni
