Students Stand Up for Mental Health

24,158 views
Adolescence is hard enough without the extra challenges of depression and anxiety. Often a simple act of reaching out to show you understand can give someone hope. This amazing short film shows the powerful effects that can occur when students, parents and administration step up and stand up for those who need an extra boost.

If you or someone you know is struggling, find support.

So many people who suffer are invisible. There is shame and fear on their side, and often indifference or ignorance on our part. You probably don’t have to look far to see a classmate or student who is suffering. How can you stand up for them?

Haunting music and outstanding film editing. How simple it is up simply be there for another if we are in the moment and present. It isn't difficult if we slow down and look around. Beautiful piece.

It is important that people and young people in particular,see that they are not alone. That we all feel lonely and insecure at times in our life and we can support eachother.

People supporting one another is hope-inspiring for me. We can use our voice, and we can use our EARS: listening is at least as important.

The nurturing done by peer groups and teachers to help. Respect shown to children.
