Facing Anxiety

Anxiety eclipses depression among college students, and the number who say it’s overwhelming them is on the rise. Campus counseling centers confront many challenges in trying to serve students, not the least of which is that mental health still has a stigma on campuses.

Here are the voices of five students explaining how they cope, what they’d like their professors to know, and what their peers need to hear. Sharing their stories, they hope, will lead to more open discussion of the daily struggles students face, and the support that could help them thrive.
The Chronicle is teaming up with Active Minds, a nonprofit group focused on campus mental health, to hear more about students’ experiences. Do you know students with a story to tell?
