I've been freaking out to the max and this is why I've been blasting off from PC, but I've found quite a few scholarships in the category of mental health:
- Those dealing with depression do have educational opportunities. There are groups and sponsors that offer support and assistance. One of those outstanding groups is the Anika Foundation. They offer the Premier’s Anika Foundation Youth Depression Awareness Scholarships annually. The number of winners and the amount they are awarded varies from year to year.
- gay scholarships for depression is the Santa Fe Chapter of PFLAG, which are the Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays. This group has been dedicated to awarding depression scholarships of as much as $15,000 for those young people who are suffering from depression. In just over 2 years the group has already awarded $150,000 in gay scholarships. Lesbian and Gay teenagers suffer a significant amount of the depression that haunts our youth.
- One more group that offers a depression type scholarship to assist those in need with furthering their education is. Here they offer the Davidson Scholarship. It is generally an award of $400 to $800. This disability scholarship is geared more towards those who seek to teach in the field of mental health.

"To dwell in the here and the now does not mean you never think about the past or responsibility, plan for the future. The idea is simply not to allow yourself to get lost in regrets about past or worries about the past or worries about the future. If you are firmly in the present moment, the past can be an object of inquiry, the object of your mindfulness by looking into the past, but you are still grounded in the present moment"
