It’s time we make taking care of our mental health as easy to discuss as our physical health.

It’s OK to struggle with mental health

we’ve all been there
The struggle comes with many names: anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, stress and more. They can be brought on by the stress of school and daily life, fear of the coronavirus outbreak, sexual assault, physical and emotional abuse, or racial oppression, to name a few. 
It’s time we treat mental health needs more openly as a society. Let’s Talk About It and make it a normal part of life to get help and heal. Talk with your friends and family, OSU staff and mental health professionals. Let’s start the change.
