Student Counselling and Health send their condolences to all students and staff affected by the recent loss of their fellow student.
It is important to understand that dealing with a traumatic event of this nature can be a very difficult and anxious time. It is normal to feel overwhelmed emotionally, psychologically and even physically at this time.
While the university is closed we offer you some self-help tools that can be useful during this difficult time:
Safety is priority, remove yourself from any dangerous spaces.
Talk to someone you can trust about your thoughts and emotions that the traumatic event may have evoked. This could be a friend or family member.
Tap into your social support structure- Support and understanding at a difficult time can be helpful- you don’t have to face it alone.
Know that how you are feeling is very normal for someone who has been through a traumatic event.
Give yourself time to process everything – be gentle on yourself.
Try to engage in healthy de-stressing activities, such as the examples in the attached picture.
Once the University has reopened please contact the Student Counselling Centre, you can call us on 031 373 2266 or pop in to see us, we are located on Steve Biko Campus, Lower Library Complex, next to Financial Aid. While the university is temporarily closed , a confidential and safe resource to use is lifeline’s 24 hour counselling line. The number is 0861 322 322 or email lifelinecounselling@gmail.com.
