Mental Health

• College life brings many challenges and is often stressful. Students experience those challenges in a number of different areas--some students have difficulties adjusting to the changes in academic demands from high school to college, others experience confusion in deciding on a major or career path, and still others struggle with issues in their families and relationships.
• Most students feel anxious, depressed, confused, or overwhelmed at some point during their college experience. In fact most people, at some time in our lives, feel overwhelmed or need someone to talk to about our problems.
• According to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than 30 million Americans need help dealing with feelings and problems that seem beyond their control.
