Two months ago, I was overwhelmed with anxiety about my dissertation project. Desperate for help, I found Mind, a free mental health service. After completing their online questionnaires, I was connected with a CBT counselor and started weekly sessions for totally 5 weeks at no cost.
The counselor helped me see my challenges from new perspectives and taught me practical tools to manage my thoughts and stress. Over time, my confidence grew, and my anxiety lessened.
I highly recommend Mind to anyone struggling with their mental health. It’s accessible, supportive, and truly transformative. Take the first step—it’s worth it.
It’s great to hear that Mind was such a supportive resource for you during a challenging time! Mental health services like this can make a huge difference, especially when dealing with the stress and pressure of big projects like a dissertation. It’s reassuring to know that there’s help available, and it’s free! I’m sure your experience with the CBT counselor helped a lot with managing those anxious thoughts and building confidence. Thanks for sharing—this will definitely help others who might be feeling the same way.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It’s amazing how small changes in thinking can have such a big impact. I hope sharing my experience encourages others to seek support if they need it—mental health is so important, especially during high-stress times.
Wow, thanks for sharing this, I didn’t even realise that they provided such a service. Mental health support can often seem inaccessible for students due to the costs that come with it. Glad to hear they offer this helpful service and that it can help students who are facing challenges at uni.
