The pandemic will have affected us all in different ways. Lots of us will have faced many challenges and worries throughout the course of the pandemic. From health worries and the effects of losing a loved one, to the feelings of loneliness and social isolation. Many of us have, and still are struggling with how it’s affecting ourselves and our loved ones. But how has the pandemic affected student mental health?

If you’re a student at university struggling during the pandemic, there is lots of support available. If you do have concerns, it’s important to speak with someone and talk to them about how you’re feeling. Family and friends are the first port of call for many, but if you don’t feel comfortable sharing your feelings with them, other services and support are available.
Your university will have a dedicated Welfare department you can contact for further support, advice and information regarding your wellbeing.
In addition, there are many charities and organisations who provide useful information, offer advice and have many resources available to make getting the support you need easier.
