ASKING FOR HELPIt is NOT a sign of weakness to ask for help when it is needed – it is considered appropriate behaviour
SO - DO NOT let things get too bad before you talk to someone about what you are thinking and feeling. Even if it is not directly study-related, we know that what affects you personally, affects you academically. Do not feel guilty or ashamed to talk to a counsellor or academic advisor.

If you want to talk to someone:Uni Counselling Service is a good place to start.
Most campuses have daily ‘drop-in’ sessions
and will always respond to a crisis.
