Talk
To a friend/family
Get support from a friend or family member. Talking things through with someone you trust can sometimes help the immediate situation and help you think through what, if anything, you want to do. If you aren’t ready to talk yet, writing things down can also help.
To a staff member
Consider talking to a staff member in your accommodation, or a member of academic or professional staff in your School. They might not be able to fix the problem immediately, but they can listen and might be able to help.
