Student Mental Health

A mental health support page for students written and created by an ex-university student with mental health issues wanting to help others.

I set up this page in order to help students and young people struggling with their mental health as I understand what it feels like to be alone when struggling mentally, with the added stress of being a student. I hope to provide helpful links and tweets for those who need help

Being honest may not get you a lot of friends but it’ll always get you the right ones 💙

[Student Mental Health @StudentMentalH2]

Give yourself a break! Nothing is worth costing your mental health, having a break and taking some time for yourself will help your work

[Student Mental Health @StudentMentalH2]

When times are tough remember who are you, you will not always be that person who is struggling at the time, it will get easier

Note to self:
When life isn’t being kind to me,
I can be kind to myself.

You are not a burden.
You are not a mistake.
You are not unimportant.
You are not worthless.
You are not useless.
You are not a problem.

Don't listen to the voices in your head.

You're not a burden
You're worthy of love
You deserve to be here

Being a student during the pandemic is shit because you are expected to work as if nothing has happened. Take time don’t put so much pressure on yourself.

Our minds naturally try to hook on to bad stuff, while letting good stuff pass us by.

How you talk to yourself every morning can make the difference between a good day and a bad one.

In case you need to hear this:

Your path isn’t going to look exactly the same as someone else’s. And that’s okay.

[Student Mental Health @StudentMentalH2]

Sometimes you don’t realise how far you’ve come until you look back. Be proud of your progress be proud of what you’ve achieved!

[Student Mental Health @StudentMentalH2]

Simple acts of kindness can go a long way!

[Against Suicide @AgainstSuicide]

This is your reminder to take a break from social media if you need it. It can be overwhelming sometimes.

[Student Mental Health @StudentMentalH2]

You don’t always have to be productive to feel good, sometimes you just need to relax!

[Headspace @Headspace]

However you're feeling is valid. Be gentle with yourself, today and always.
