Student life can be difficult. Course work, student groups, obligations to family, part-time employment—it's easy to be overwhelmed or feel like you're falling short. It's important to take care of your yourself. If you, your instructors, your advisors, or your friends develop concerns about your well-being, you are encouraged to explore the services available:

• WashU's Mental Health Services have professional staff members who work with students to resolve personal and interpersonal difficulties. These include conflicts with or worry about friends or family, concerns about eating or drinking patterns, and feelings of anxiety, depression, and thoughts of suicide. See: https://students.wustl.edu/mental-health-services/.
• The Division of Student Affairs also offers a telehealth program called TimelyCare. You are encouraged to visit the Habif Health and Wellness Center during business hours, but this additional service also provides after-hours access to medical care and 24/7 access to mental telehealth care across the United States, with no cost at the time of your visit. Students who pay the Health and Wellness fee are eligible for this service.
• WashU Cares specializes providing referrals and resources, both on, and off campus for mental health, medical health, financial and academic resources by using supportive case management. WashU Cares also receives reports on students who may need help connecting to resources or whom a campus partner is concerned about. If you are concerned about yourself or someone else, you can file a report here: https://washucares.wustl.edu/.
