Mental health self-assessment tool for faculty and staff

The Mental Health Continuum highlights the range of mental and physical health challenges you may face throughout life, along with the resources available to support you at UBC. 

Interact with each section—Thriving, Surviving, Struggling, and In Crisis—to explore the resources available to you on your mental health journey. This model isn’t for diagnosis, but it is designed to help you reflect on your mental health and locate available resources.
