By telling your stories and sharing tips and advice you can help show other students that they are not alone, recovery is possible and you can still succeed at university despite experiencing mental health difficulties. Together your experiences can change attitudes, reduce stigma and create positive change in mental health.
We share art-based posts that:
- Are created by students or recent graduates
- Share experiences of university
- Show personal experiences of mental health difficulties at university
- Give advice on how to talk to friends - whether supporting a friend who's struggling, or opening up about your own difficulties
- Are from a range of artists, we particularly encourage blogs from men, BAME and international students as they are underrepresented on our blog and across the mental health sector
Once you have created an art piece please click here.
