I moved from my home country to another country for university. It’s been a few months living here and I feel utterly overwhelmed. I thought I could handle all the changes, but my experiences have proven otherwise. I feel alone all the time and I’m not sure who I can talk to.

Today at my session my psychologist invalidated me and basically told me my I’m making up my problems for attention. I’ve never been so offended and confused in my life. I went for help and instead I left feeling worse. I don’t know what to do

I’ve avoided the use of antidepressants but made the decision 6 months ago to take them. At first I was terrified, but they have made such a difference. They aren’t perfect, but I feel better every single day. I’m not ashamed anymore to be on medication

I’ve been going to counselling after finally admitting to myself that I need help. It has changed my life. I apply what I learn during my sessions and while change has not been instant, I notice improvements everyday.

I’ve struggled with perfectionism. It's been 5 years and I still can't get over it. It's a good quality but also self destructive. I’m exhausted.

I'm in debt, and all the student loans aren't helping. I had to quit my job because I couldn't balance out school and work. I'm two months behind on rent and things just seem to be getting worse. I am so overwhelmed. All the stress is causing me to be behind in school.

I have a lot of pressure from my parents to do well in school but I am struggling so much. Everyday I worry about failing or not being good enough, and now that it's exam season, the stress is piling up.

After transitioning from high school to university. I thought I'd find a new place to fit in. It is really hard for me to communicate with people. How do I not feel so alone?

I spend too much time fixating on the past and what could’ve been, finding it really hard to look forward to the future

Two days of mental health first aid training this week. Would love to see this kind of training become more available across every workplace.

Ariana shared a message on Instagram reminding fans they're loved and to take care of their mental health: "I have a lot of followers… if I can use that to spread any kind of positivity and light—I just wanted to send it your way." 🖤

Hey guys! Here are some tips that have helped me through my anxiety that might work for you. (Keep in mind everyone is different). Exercising regularly, getting 8 hours of sleep, inhaling and exhaling slowly during panic attacks, having a safe space (community). Good luck!

After not messaging anyone for several months over any social media except one person. After feeling alone for so long. I messaged more people and tried to expand myself this time and felt more apart of my community.

I finally took a big step and tried to get a counsellor at school, but the waitlist is about 6 months long. I don’t know if I can wait that long. What can I do?
