Weekly Mental Health Q&A


Monday, April 7

“It’s finals week and I just found out my family is going through a crisis. It’s not very serious, but I still can’t stop thinking about it. Right now I need to focus on studying, but this problem with my family won’t leave my mind. It’s stressing me out so much, I can’t get anything done, and now I’m worried I’ll fail my finals on top of everything else…”

HOW CAN SCRS HELP?:

  • Will offer strategies to improve concentration
  • and an opportunity to process feelings associated the family situation
