In my lifetime, mental health has always been a stigmatised topic of discussion and I’ve never been entirely sure why. I completely understand that it’s a subject that is often misunderstood, and that individuals naturally feel uncomfortable when it threatens to appear in conversation, but I would have thought that there’s so much awareness nowadays (Mind Your Head week at Cardiff was just last week) that it would no longer be an issue.

Evidently though, it is – and this has real implications when people feel like they can’t talk about how they’re feeling. With this in mind, I thought we’d have a chat about what support the University can offer you.

I hope you found that valuable in one form or another, and I can’t stress enough how important it is to talk about your problems. If you don’t tell anyone, then who can help?

Until next time!
