Mental Health Continuum

Mental Health Continuum

Mental health lies on a continuum between content and distress and it's natural to experience a wide range of emotions between the two. Knowing where you fall on the continuum will help you understand and respond to your needs and ask for help.

Mood Meter

Mood METERThere are lots of ways to answer the question, "How are you?" Use the Mood Meter to dive deeper and build your emotional vocabulary.

The UNH Well-Being Wheel is a graphic illustration of the 8 dimensions of wellness which are environmental, financial, intellectual, occupational, physical, social, spiritual, and emotional. Around the dimensions are hands which represent well-being, the concept that to be well we need to have support from our communities.

Well-Being WheelThe Well-Being Wheel provides a whole person approach to checking-in with yourself. It will help you identify areas in your life that are thriving and areas that are challenged. 

Wildcats Checking In 

"How are you?" is more than a greeting.
It's an opportunity to check in and let someone know you care.

Instead of automatically responding with, "I'm good—how are you?" imagine what could happen if we all answered honestly and took the time to truly listen to one another.

Wildcats, take a moment to check in with yourselves and with those around you. A simple conversation can make a meaningful difference.

Remember: it's okay to ask for help, and it's okay to offer support. Reach out when you need it—you don't have to navigate challenges alone.
