In May we celebrate Mental Health Awareness Month. With this nationally recognized month, we promote the importance of taking care of one’s emotional well-being and challenge the stigmas associated with mental health. This year at the University of Oregon, we are engaging in the theme of Collective Care.
We at University Health Services want to emphasize the challenges students, faculty members, and staff face regarding their mental health, especially with the global and local climates currently.
According to the UO Healthy Minds Study in spring of 2021, 67 percent of our student body is estimated to be “experiencing symptoms of at least one significant mental health problem, such as depression, anxiety disorders, suicidal thoughts, self-injury, or eating disorders.” Additionally, 86 percent of our UO students perceived a need for support, and 40 percent indicated having accessed mental health services. At University Health Services, we believe this is the perfect time to reach out to the community and encourage self-compassion, understanding, and overall mental health awareness.
This May we have partnered with a variety of campus departments to create events tailored to increasing awareness of campus mental health resources, decreasing the stigma associated with mental health, as well as emphasizing kindness to yourself and to others during and beyond this year’s national Mental Health Awareness Month.
We encourage all students, faculty members, and staff to participate in Mental Health Awareness Month bingo to help you engage in self and collective care. Bingo cards can be found at the Duck Nest (EMU 041).
