International Panic Day

June 16, 2023
The International Panic Day occurs on June 18 each year. Despite its seemingly light-heartedness, the celebration strives to draw attention to a very serious problem that most people encounter at some point in their lives.
 
The purpose of International Panic Day is to raise awareness of the severe incidence of panic disorders and the value of mental health. The goal of the celebration is to offer support and understanding to people who may be experiencing difficulties, while also increasing public awareness of panic attacks, anxiety disorders, and associated conditions. The day serves as both a reminder of the challenges experienced by those who deal with panic attacks and a call to action for society to promote a more empathetic and supportive environment.

VILNIUS TECH encourages its community to take some time to consciously focus on reducing stress and taking some time to celebrate International Panic Day! It is an ideal opportunity to step back, unwind and try to let some of the stress and panic disappear.
 

 

The VILNIUS TECH Library invites you to take care of your emotional health, promote calmness in your lives, and take a closer look at how to deal with panic with these books:

The “Discover VILNIUS TECH” challenge, held during the first week of September, helped students discover the VILNIUS TECH digital badge system – nearly 800 new participants joined, and 10 of them won prizes provided by VILNIUS TECH. During the challenge, students unlocked eight digital badge programmes and discovered more than 200 extracurricular activities offered by the University. But the challenge is only the beginning: students can continue earning digital badges throughout their studies and use their certificates to showcase their skills and prepare for their careers. “The meetings held during Integration Week confirmed that students are interested in preparing for their careers from their very first year – learning how to prepare a strong CV, feel more confident in job interviews, and use digital badges and their certificates to present their competencies to employers,” says Assoc. Prof. Dr Ingrida Leščauskienė, Head of the VILNIUS TECH Digital Badge System. This year, students are also being introduced to the new career preparation digital badge programme “DISCOVER. GRAVITY”, developed within the framework of international Erasmus+ project “YOUTH 360”. Students will be able to earn digital badges by participating in career seminars led by professionals, the GRAVITY Career Day, and other career preparation activities. The winners are: Lukas Stankūnas (Faculty of Civil Engineering). Ernas Erlikas(Faculty of Electronics). Liepa Gustaitė (Faculty of Mechanics). Sofiya Eitminovich (Faculty of Fundamental Sciences).
