On May 1st, we were honored to join the Mental Health Awareness Bulldog Mile Walk to kick off mental health awareness month. The walk was created by seniors completing a group project centering on spreading awareness and making a difference. The event started with a purpose and was filled with music, awareness, and connection.

Remember, student champions for mental health have the ability to save lives and encourage hope! Everyone can make a difference!

We hope that you create space for affirmations because you have worked hard and have put in efforts, regardless of the outcome.

Which affirmation stood out to you? Is there one that you’d add?

If you’re struggling with hopelessness, know that you’re not alone in that experience. We hope that this post can be supportive to your experience and also validating. There is also support immediate available to you if you are struggling with hopelessness. You may call or text the 988 hotline to be connected with crisis supports.

In addition, all Drake students have access to TimelyCare via their mobile app or TimelyCare.com/drake. You don’t have to wait for care or hold your hopelessness alone.

If you need to contact our counseling center for additional support, you may reach us at 515-216-5100.

There are many reasons Bulldogs may benefit from TimelyCare but the biggest reason is that you don’t have to hold what you’re experiencing alone. Not in the morning nor late at night. It starts with one TalkNow call through the TimelyCare app or weblink.

Your mental health matters wherever you go.
