Feeling the Holiday Stress? You’re Not Alone.
The holiday season can bring joy, but it can also stir up stress, loneliness, or overwhelming emotions. Remember—you don’t have to go through it alone.

Try coping with these small steps:
- Take time for rest and self-care, even if it’s just five minutes of breathing or journaling.
- Set realistic expectations—your holiday doesn’t have to be perfect.
- Connect with supportive friends, family, or campus resources.
- Spend time in ways that feel meaningful to you, not what others expect.

The Marshall University Counseling Center is here for you.
Reach out at 304-696-3111 or stop by Prichard Hall to schedule a talk.
Let’s take care of ourselves and each other this season, Herd family.

🏊‍♂️💚 Dive into Mental Health Game Day! 💚🏊‍♀️

This week, Marshall Counseling Center and Be HERD are proud to celebrate our incredible Swim & Dive Team for championing mental wellness alongside athletic excellence! As part of Student Athlete Mental Health Week, we’re raising awareness that mental health *is* health and working together to reduce stigma on and off the pool deck. Every athlete deserves support—for mind, body, and performance.

Special thanks to Coach Ian (Head Coach of Swimming & Diving), Gerald Harrison (Athletic Director), and Niesha Campbell (Deputy Director of Athletics) for their dedicated support and leadership in making student athlete mental health a campus priority. Your partnership helps create an environment where Thundering Herd athletes feel seen, heard, and empowered to ask for help and help each other.

Let’s keep the conversation going. Share your story, tag a teammate, and remember—whether you win the race or face a challenge, . We Are Marshall. We Are Here for You. 💚
