He makes the case for seeing\u00a0mental illness in a new light, so that people can begin to address some of the issues associated with suicide, depression, and other preventable mental disorders. <\/p>\n

Write a short (400-600 words) response paper in which you address the following questions:<\/p>\n
What do you think of Jack\u2019s practice\u00a0of changing his \u201cto-do\u201d lists into \u201cwant-to-do\u201d lists? What does he hope to gain from this\u00a0shift? <\/p>\n
Which coping mechanisms does Jack observe his fellow students using to deal with stress and mental health challenges? What does Jack think is the deeper problem? <\/p>\n
Why, in Jack\u2019s view, is it hard for people to get help for mental health problems in the same way they might seek help for dental problems? <\/p>\n
Add your own thoughts\u00a0about the obstacles you think students may\u00a0face in getting help for mental health issues. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
