What to do if you are not feeling mentally well
Talk about it
Confide in someone you trust – a friend, partner, kolleague. Sharing the burden will bring relief.
Seek professional help
You can contact faculty psychologists or crisis hotlines. You are not alone, and professionals are here for you.
Take a break
Rest is important. If you can, slow down and give yourself time to recover – it's not a failure.
Move and breathe
A walk, sports, or just a few deep breaths will help calm your mind and reduce stress.
Limit social media
The online world often creates false pressure. A short digital break can work wonders.
Write notes or a diary
Write down your emotions. It will help you put things into context.
You are not alone
Many people experience anxiety, stress, and burnout. It's okay to ask for support.
Connect with others
Don't isolate yourself. Spending time with people, even if only for a short while, helps more than you might think.
Ask for change in working hours
If you feel overwhelmed, ask your supervisor or the HR division how your working hours can be adjusted.
Be kind to yourself
Taking care of your mind is just as important as taking care of your body. Forgive yourself for your mistakes; you are not alone.
