WEBINAR COUNSELLING FUN TALK MAY 2021

STUDENT COUNSELING AND WELFARE SECTION, UPMKB ORGANIZES A FUN TALK COUNSELLING WEBINAR: MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS IN CONJUNCTION WITH WORLD MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS DAY 2021

BINTULU-Recently, the Student Counseling and Welfare Section (SKKP), UPMKB has organized a Webinar entitled Counseling Fun Talk: Mental Health Awareness specifically for UPMKB students and the surrounding community. The program aims to provide awareness to students and the community about the importance of maintaining mental health as well as share the real experience of a person who has been diagnosed with mental illness.

The program which was conducted for half a day was presented by Puan Siti Norazilah Md. Said, Counseling Lecturer, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) and a special appearance from Ms Nurul Umayrah Atan, a Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) patient who is also a Trainee Counselor from UNIMAS.

According to Puan Siti Norazilah, among the tips that can be practised to maintain mental health is to exercise, listen to music, learn proper breathing techniques and so on.

In this program, Ms Nurul Umayrah also stated that moral support from family and friends is an important thing that gives her the strength to face MDD.

It is hoped that this program will be able to raise awareness about mental health and reduce the stigma about individuals with mental disorders in society.
