Today is World Mental Health Day!
As we all know, people researching and working in academia are disproportionately affected by anxiety and depression. But after the last 1.5 years living through a pandemic that is not over yet taking care of your mental health is a struggle for almost everyone.
Please take some time for self-care today and to check in with yourself:
How are you feeling?
What do you need?
and come up with the next possible, tiny steps towards your mental well-being!
We at PhD Balance are working to help students by providing resources and a community. Seeking out resources and help isn’t weak but something to be proud of and you don’t have to do it alone!
Be sure to check out our Resources Section for a growing list of resources that can help you in your mental health journey and chat with other grad students on our Discord server. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please reach out to a health care professional. There is a list of emergency hotlines in our Suicide Prevention Resources.
