One in three female students in the UK has a mental health problem, a survey suggests.

Mental health is fast becoming an issue in all walks of life and it is not surprising that students are affected. They are exposed to a lot of pressure and many find this very difficult. Early psychological intervention can prevent later, more serious conditions which might require medication or even hospitalisation.
