Stress, depression, and suicidal thoughts are things that many UC San
Diego students experience. However, there is a way to cope with these
issues, while breaking down the stigma of mental health, and leading a
well-balanced, successful lifestyle.

The Wellness Center is sponsoring an important speaker, Ross Szabo, to
talk about mental health and wellness issues as part of our emotional
wellness and suicide prevention efforts.
