As students, juggling academic responsibilities, personal commitments, and the demands of everyday life can be extremely overwhelming. It's crucial to prioritize your mental well-being alongside your academic and personal commitments to be able to thrive in your journey. This Mental Health Awareness Week, we want to remind you that you're not alone, and that there are resources available to support you.

Mental health concerns can manifest in various forms, including anxiety, depression, stress, and burnout. These challenges can impact your ability to concentrate, retain information, and perform at your best. Computek College understands the unique challenges faced by students and offers various services.

Self-Care and Online Resources 

If you feel stressed or anxious and are looking for a way to alleviate it, reach out to your instructors so they can connect you with the right services. We have partnered with MindfulWe, a holistic psychotherapy service focused on helping you generate positive waves of healing, well-being, and success.  

Computek College also provides online resources to address various concerns you might have. Recognizing the financial strain you may experience, we've collaborated with Enriched Academy to offer financial literacy courses to all students at no additional cost. These programs aim to establish clear paths to financial independence through education and technology. You'll gain insights into money myths and management, the stock market, real estate investing, and more.  

Explore these resources at your convenience and incorporate them into your daily routine.

Peer Support and Community Building

Connecting with others can be a powerful source of support and encouragement. Reach out to your fellow students through breakout sessions facilitated by your instructors, or in the student whatsapp groups. We encourage you to share your experiences, seek advice, and build a sense of community with fellow students who may be facing similar challenges.

Remember, prioritizing your mental health is not a sign of weakness; it's a testament to your strength and commitment to personal growth. Embrace the resources available, and don't hesitate to reach out for assistance. You don't have to face these challenges alone; at Computek we're here to support you every step of the way on your educational journey. Together, we can foster a community that prioritizes mental well-being and empowers you to achieve your academic and personal goals.
