How can universities better support students who are struggling with their mental health?
Drawing on hours of in-depth interviews, this book examines the lived experiences of students with mental health difficulties in higher education. Author Emma Farrell aims to illuminate the experience of navigating the transition to university, accessing support, managing coursework and expectations, while also forming relationships, identity, and a sense of belonging.
Emphasising the importance of the student voice in improving student well-being, this book is ideal reading for students of Education, Mental Health, Psychology, Sociology, and Cultural Anthropology.
