The interactive model
This interactive spreadsheet, explained in the video, allows you to see how biological problems, social problems, life events and rumination can have an effect on mental health. You can input percentages yourself to see how different combinations may impact on well-being. Try inputting different levels of each factor to determine which ones are the most detrimental to mental health.

Please note: the spreadsheet here is a Microsoft Excel file (.xls). If you do not have access to Excel on your computer, you could download and install Open Office, a open-source free software alternative which will open the file, to try this optional step.
