Active Minds

I enjoyed learning that Active Minds is an organization that connects college students and allows them to express themselves especially if they are going through stressful times. It is great that a place exists that allows college students to talk about their issues and connect with others who are going through similar issues. Active Minds also helps college students understand what mental illness is and also promotes people to seek help early. I am happy that an organization exists like this because students sometimes feel they are alone but now have a chance to voice their issues especially when they are feeling uneasy. Being a Psychiatric Nurse allows me to work with many people that suffer from mental illness and seeing that Active Minds is out there makes me happy. Mental illness is a big problem and organizations like Active Minds help strengthened awareness of mental illness.
