You are expected to know the information in this booklet-- it is your responsibility to read it and refer to it as necessary.

MENTAL HEALTH ON CAMPUS

QMUL Wellbeing Hub webpages have all the information about wellbeing in one place, so that's the first place to look.

Mental health issues, like depression and anxiety, are common and real and nothing to be ashamed of. If you are experiencing difficulties, and it is not an acute crisis, please get in touch with your Advisor as the first point of contact. They can help you to contact the Advice and Counselling Services (see Section 9.3).

If you are experiencing extreme difficulty, please contact: https://www.qmul.ac.uk/welfare/help-in-a-crisis/
