Helpful NUS Initiatives
Think Positive
Think Positive is NUS Scotland’s student mental health project. This project aims to find ways to support students experiencing mental ill health, tackle stigma and discrimination, and promote wellbeing in colleges and universities
It wants a healthy, happy student population across Scotland, but even more so to foster a society that talks openly and without concern about their mental wellbeing. This project researches the experiences of students living with mental health problems to find out what stigma and discrimination they are facing, and how they manage studying alongside their illness. Think Positive gives students and student support services in universities and colleges a better understanding of the best way to support students and ensure student health needs are being met.
It also provides a helpful directory to various mental health services and external sites that can help you understand whatever problems you may be facing:
