College is tough. Between classes, work, and social life, it’s easy for stress to pile up. Add in mental health struggles like anxiety or depression, and it can feel overwhelming.
But in Maryland, there’s a new law giving students the chance to hit pause and prioritize their well-being.
Jessica Reyes, Patricia Wu, and Dr. Cortina Peter is all for it. She emphasizes that mental health should be a priority, and sometimes we just need a break to recharge and come back stronger.
So if you’re a Maryland student struggling with your mental health, don’t be afraid to reach out for help and consider taking a break. It’s okay to prioritize your well-being. This law recognizes that, and it’s here to support you.
