Mental Help
Each May since 1949 has been recognized in the United States as Mental
Health Awareness Month, a chance to shine a light on resources available
for those who suffer from mental illness and to relieve the stigma that may
stop them from seeking treatment. For those who work in campus housing, though, the issue of student mental health is a year-round concern,
even more so now that more students come to college with diagnosed
disorders and 75 percent of all mental health conditions begin by age 24.
Findings from the American College Health Association National
College Health Assessment, released in early 2017, included responses
from almost 48,000 undergraduate students at 92 U.S. colleges and
universities. While 85 percent of them described their general health as
good, very good, or excellent, 57 percent of them said they had felt more
than average or tremendous stress in the previous 12 months, and 14
percent had been diagnosed or treated by a professional for depression
and anxiety.
	 Other	findings	showed	that	students	had,	anytime	in	the	previous	12	
months, experienced the following:

53% Felt things were
hopeless

85 Felt exhausted (not from
%

physical activity)

88% Felt overwhelmed by all
they had to do

64% Felt very lonely

69% Felt very sad

62% Felt overwhelming anxiety
40% Felt so depressed it was
difficult	to	function

Felt overwhelming anger
Intentionally injured self
Seriously considered suicide
