"I found the adjustment to university life quite challenging to balance academics with physical health, mental health, and social involvement."

Mental health disorders can have big impacts on mood, thinking, and behaviour and significantly affect daily functioning. In moments of wellness, students have the opportunity to participate equally in school whereas, when they are not well, students may have difficulties attending class or processing information, and academic performance can be affected. As such, students with mental health disorders may require some type of accommodation in college or university.
