World Mental Health Day<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

World Mental Health Day was established by the World Federation for Mental Health in 1992, it is recognised every October 10th<\/sup>. And now championed by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and mental health organisations and charities around the world.<\/p>\n

It serves as a reminder that our mental health is just as important as our physical. But it must be emphasised that mental health is just as important as physical health every day of the year.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mental health Matters<\/h2>\n

Mental Health is a fundamental part of our health and overall wellbeing. Conditions can affect anyone, but access to mental health services remains limited. And stigma and discrimination still remain. The purpose of today is to raise awareness about issues, fight stigma and advocate for better access and promote open conversations.<\/p>\n

The theme of this year is \u201caccess to services \u2013 mental health in catastrophe and emergencies\u201d which protects our mental health in these global times.<\/p>\n

The mental health foundation offers free tipsheets on helping you navigate, and that you are not alone in feeling overwhelmed about the world. The tipsheet<\/a> helps you set boundaries with the news, combat doomscrolling and use grounding exercises.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mental Health Support at the Library<\/h3>\n

\u201cHere in the Library, we believe that looking after your physical and emotional health is just as important as your studies. We are committed to supporting positive mental health and wellbeing and believe that the key to wellbeing is the care and balance of different aspects of our lives.\u201d We have curated a collection of books and other resources to support the different areas of your well-being.\u00a0 This is our wellbeing collection.<\/a> \u201cOur collection covers a range of topics and includes guided self-help approaches to supporting mental health, personal development and achievement. You\u2019ll find stories of resilience and recovery, discussions of family matters, and practical tools to help with the everyday realities of university life, such as finance and exam stress.\u201d<\/p>\n

Each campus library has a physical wellbeing space as well; you are always welcome to take time out for yourself and browse our wellbeing collection books. All our books are loanable.<\/p>\n

Additionally, if you just need a little break, there are relaxation spaces in the library with cosy sofas and puzzles to help you destress. And we have our digital version on the blog.<\/a><\/p>\n

Mental Health Support at the University<\/h4>\n

At Edinburgh Napier University, we understand things might not be \u201cplain sailing\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing at University is about finding your own way \u2013 but that doesn\u2019t mean you have to go it alone\u201d especially when things get difficult.\u00a0 The Wellbeing and Inclusion team at the university are incredible. A team of\u00a0 \u201cprofessional staff are here to listen, offer support and guidance, and aim to point you in the right direction at every turn so you feel safe, supported, healthy and able to fulfil your potential\u201d. The Counselling and Mental Well-being team would like to highlight that \u201cOur goal is to help you feel content, healthy, and well-supported. If you are facing challenges with your mental health, we are here to help.\u201d<\/p>\n

There is also free, online and anonymous support available through Togtherall and Silver Cloud.<\/p>\n

The myNapier\u00a0webpages<\/a>\u00a0provide information about all the services and support available to staff and students. And how to contact them<\/a>.<\/p>\n

More Information<\/h4>\n

Look at all the amazing work the\u00a0Mental Health Foundation<\/a>\u00a0are doing.<\/p>\n

We have a wide range of articles on the importance of\u00a0wellbeing.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n
