Mental Health Challenges in Academia: Stressors Faced by Students and Faculty (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798337309293)

Mental health challenges in academia are prevalent but often overlooked aspects of education. Students, researchers, and faculty face pressure to perform, publish, and compete in a demanding and often isolating environment. The pursuit of academic excellence, while rewarding, can come at the cost of well-being, with high rates of anxiety, depression, burnout, and imposter syndrome reported across all levels of academic institutions. As awareness of these issues grows, it is crucial to examine the systemic and cultural factors that contribute to poor mental health in academia and explore meaningful solutions to support students and faculty navigating its challenges. Mental Health Challenges in Academia: Stressors Faced by Students and Faculty explores mental health issues prevalent in academic settings, such as anxiety, depression, and burnout. It provides insights into the unique stressors faced by students and faculty, fostering a deeper understanding of the academic environment's impact on mental health. This book covers topics such as grief counseling, social media, and work-life balance, and is a useful resource for business owners, educators, psychologists, sociologists, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
