Let’s talk mental health

Following the themes of respect, sexuality, alcohol and others, the Prevention pole of AGEPoly mobilized this year to address the theme of Mental Health. One in five people is affected by this subject at some point in their life, and out of 10,000 students, we’ll let you do the math. So for those who have been diagnosed, who suffer in silence, who help a loved one through these times, we decided to talk about it.

With the precious help of our Artepoly commission, we have already given the spotlight to two students: Nicolas diagnosed with ADHD, and Clothilde in remission from severe depression. In a few weeks, a third video will be published on the topic of borderline disorder. This project will also continue next year in order to inform, raise awareness and give hope. Now at EPFL, we talk Mental Health.
