As a student, this wouldn't have pertained to me exactly, but I did go back in the fall semester. Aaron passed away in June, and I went back for the fall and spring semesters.
We had support at Roger Neilson house with mental health support, support groups and a social worker to speak with, but I was back at school. About a year and a half later, I had a really bad burnout episode and it had some lasting repercussions. I got through the burnout episode, but then toward the tail end of COVID, working as a nurse, that burnout episode repeated. It's turned into a bit of a cycle with some burnout episodes.
I think a large part of it was that I didn't have that time to process it. As a student, this bill wouldn't deal with that, but if I had been in a paid role at that time, it would have dealt with that.
