The UST-Legazpi Psychology Society conducted its 2𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗛𝗔 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 last October 22, 2026 at the T-Lobby of the University of Santo Tomas-Legazpi. Various visitors: faculty, staff, and students from different departments and year levels came by to show their support, write words of affirmation, grab a little snack or pick a message from the jars depending on what they needed to hear/read.
The booth included an affirmation wall, an MHA mirror, edible serotonin (small snacks to boost your serotonin), and many more features including our MHA jars. With the help of the BS Psychology students these jars that included messages of empathy, growth, awareness, and support were able to reach individuals from different walks of life.
On the same day, selected Psychology Society officers went around campus campaigning and discussing various psychological concepts to raise awareness and lessen the stigma on mental health.
All of these activities are part of the organization’s Mental Health Awareness Month campaign, “𝗖𝗢𝗦 𝗪𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿: 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘀, 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗺𝗮 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀” with the theme, “𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝗯𝗲𝗹: 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗺𝗮”. Through this the organization, its officers, and its members hope that mental health becomes a topic that people will eventually embrace where help-seeking becomes less stigmatized and those who have these conditions are better understood.
To a kinder future 🍃
