World Mental Health Day

10 october 2026 year

World Mental Health Day is observed on 10 October. It reminds us of the importance of psychological well-being, timely support, and being mindful of our emotional state.

Amid the Russian-Ukrainian war, taking care of our mental health is especially important. Constant stress, uncertainty, and loss challenge many Ukrainians. It is important to remember that seeking help is normal and that self-care is an essential part of everyday life.

The team of psychologists at Karazin University encourages all students and staff to take steps to support and improve their mental health. Students can access free, confidential one-to-one consultations with psychologists and take part in workshops and activities designed to build psychological resilience, develop self-help skills, and promote mental well-being.

Psychological support contacts: Telegram, Facebook, Telegram chat (to book a consultation), and email: psyhelp@karazin.ua.

Let us take care of ourselves and one another! Sometimes, it is important to pause, allow ourselves time to rest, talk to loved ones or seek professional help. Mental health deserves our attention not just today, but every day.
