Who to speak to if you’re not feeling great

As Stephen Fry once said, “Student life isn’t always the party people might think it is.” Homesickness, exam stress and social pressure can all play a part in how you feel, and it’s normal to be finding things tough. And that's before Covid-19 comes into the picture.

Although it’s tempting to keep everything inside, this can sometimes make you feel worse and have a negative impact on your health. People often say ‘a problem shared is a problem halved’, and while it isn’t quite as simple as this, opening up to someone can certainly help you feel better. But who can you talk to?
