Peerzle app analytics for December 12

What is Peerzle Have one-on-one anonymous conversations, browse wellness content, or connect with your community resources. Peerzle is a platform to relieve the daily struggles of life through on-demand 20-minute chats. Feeling homesick? Stressed about grades? Going through a tough breakup? We help you find the best match in your network by connecting you with peers based on shared experiences. From there, you can feel comfortable talking through your struggles, knowing that you are talking to someone who has experienced similar issues. Use Peerzle however you'd like. If you are having a difficult day and want to talk about it, request a chat. If you enjoy the euphoric feeling of helping others, turn on your notifications and join a conversation whenever you receive a match. However, you don't have to do both. College can be tough, but you are not alone. Peerzle allows you to work together with your peers to promote a culture of wellness on your campus while breaking down the stigmas and barriers that block people from seeking help. Peerzle is a community for casual conversations about everyday struggles and is not a solution to severe mental health issues or disorders. If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health emergency, contact emergency services (911).

Your brain (and even your body) can get a lot out of talking through problems. In fact, research from U.C.L.A suggests that putting your feelings into words can diminish the response of the amygdala, a part of the brain responsible (among other things) for emotional responses, including fear, anxiety, and aggression. This is why, as time goes on, you can overcome stress by talking about your experiences with peers. For example, if you are homesick while at school, your daily life can be emotionally overwhelming. However, as you spend more time at your campus and talk through your issues with peers and friends, these feelings of anxiety and fear of being away from home can start to subside. Nothing will automatically fix these issues and make you instantly healthy and happy, but just like exercising and eating better, it can contribute to your overall well-being over time. More importantly, it can help you handle your emotions more effectively in the future by helping you understand why you feel the way you do.
