Description

• The hope for IfYoureReadingThis.org is that it will host enough letters for any student to scroll through, stumble upon a letter written by somebody they know, and not only feel supported in that moment, but also know that they have an understanding friend to talk to in the future. The fear of stigma or judgment often prevents students from reaching out to friends and family when they are struggling with anxiety or depression. A support network is an integral part of mental health, along with professional counseling, and sometimes medication. However, building this support network can be hard, especially when students feel uneasy about whether or not theyll be met with support and positivity. Therefore, IfYoureReadingThis.org seeks to have friends come forward first and share that responsibility of being vulnerable. We shouldnt have all of the hard work be on the side of the disempowered position. IfYoureReadingThis.org functions to close the gap between students with mental illness and the people that care about them. This is a place where we come forward to show our support first. This is a place where we can use our voices to touch the lives of those around us. It is our hope that IfYoureReadingThis.org will serve as an open-ended university-wide support network to help students struggling with anxiety and depression. Our goal is to help students with mental illness feel comfortable talking to somebody, by identifying the people who want to listen, and by showing an outpouring of love and understanding. If you're reading this, you are cared about.
