=> Reasons:
- Stigma: people believe that mental health problems are a sign of weakness or something to be ashamed of.
- Cost: Mental health treatment is expensive, and unable to find financial resources to pay for it.
- Lack of access: Not all students have access to mental health services, especially those living in rural areas.
- Fear of judgment: afraid of what others will think if they seek help for their mental health problems => suffer in silence.
- Unawareness of resources: not aware of the available mental health resources although many universities offer mental health support for their students.

Mental health care is expensive and inaccessible without insurance. We need more providers and better quality companies to make it affordable for all. It's time to prioritize mental health care like physical health.
