CW: This article discusses mental health. By the time Rebecca Yu was in high school, she had already learned how to hide her pain. Depression was part of her daily reality, but she didn’t have the words to explain what she was going through, or the confidence to believe anyone would care. Then something shifted.

“It was the check-ins,” Rebecca says. “My teachers didn’t just ask once. They kept asking. They saw me. They listened. They kept showing up. And that made me feel like I mattered.”

With their encouragement, Rebecca sought professional mental health support for the first time.

Now, as an R U OK? Community Ambassador and lived experience speaker, Rebecca says people can check in with others any day, not just on R U OK? Day.

“I know what it’s like to feel invisible,” she says. “And I know how powerful it is when someone genuinely asks, ‘Are you OK?’ That question saved my life.”
