May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and the UoM Psychology Society is highlighting the importance of understanding, openness, and support around mental health. 💚

Mental health is part of everyday life—it affects how we think, feel, and connect with others. Starting conversations, listening without judgement, and being aware of our own wellbeing can make a real difference.

Let’s work towards a campus culture where mental health is talked about openly and support is easy to access when needed.

Mental health matters.🩵💚

As we take a moment to say goodbye, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who contributed to the success of this mandate. To the members of the Psychology Society, thank you for showing up, engaging with our events, and nurturing a genuine interest in psychology and mental health. It truly meant a lot to us. 🥹

We are equally grateful to all the societies we collaborated with. Working alongside you has been a valuable learning experience for our executive team, and we appreciate the support and shared efforts throughout.

Lastly, we extend our heartfelt thanks to the Student Union members, staff, lecturers at FSSH, and most especially our advisor, Dr. Fiona Grant, for your trust, encouragement, and belief in our initiatives and capabilities. 😊

Throughout this mandate, we have made meaningful strides in raising awareness about mental health and helping others better understand what psychology truly represents. Still, we know there is so much more that can be done. While we may not be here to witness what comes next, it is our hope that this society continues to grow and stands at the forefront of psychology and mental health on campus. 🧠✨

Waiting, overthinking… anxiety can take over fast.

The good news? There are simple, science-backed ways to manage it in the moment and they actually work.

Save this for when you need it, and share it with someone who might too.

These psychology experiments would never be approved today.

Yet they revealed uncomfortable truths about obedience, power, discrimination, and how easily behaviour can change under pressure.

Swipe to see the experiments that changed psychology. 🧠

Your brain does a lot of strange little things without you even noticing. Like when a song suddenly gets stuck in your head and keeps replaying all day, or when you yawn just because someone else yawned. These small, weird moments are actually just your brain constantly processing, connecting, and reacting to the world around you even when you wish it wouldn’t. Let’s learn about more things like this and why they happen!
