St Andrews Snapshot – World Mental Health Day

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at St. Andrews chapter.

“I thought the most beautiful thing in the world must be shadow, the million moving shapes and cul-de-sacs of shadow. There was shadow in bureau drawers and closets and suitcases, and shadow under houses and trees and stones, and shadow at the back of people’s eyes and smiles, and shadow, miles and miles and miles of it, on the night side of the earth.” 

– “The Bell Jar,” Sylvia Plath 

Today is World Mental Health Day – we all have our individual shadows, but we are never alone.

I am an American medical student at the University of St Andrews, Scotland. I have been an avid writer for several years, focusing mainly on creative writing. But I hope to be more involved in our university's culture, particularly by bringing interesting information to all of our students!
