Talking about mental health with your friends, guildmates, and loved ones can feel uncomfortable at first, but the Seize the Awkward campaign offers resources and conversation starters to help you reach out and say the words that really matter.

Start by sharing words of encouragement with the community using the #GuildWars2 and #SeizeTheAwkward hashtags, and we’ll collect them here for everyone to read!
