The self-help course is called Big 5, and is developed in Australia, where research has shown promising results for mental health and wellbeing. 
 
What does participation involve?
• You will get access to an online self-help course lasting 4 weeks
• The course includes short exercises and reflections that you complete at your own pace
• You will receive weekly SMS messages with reminders
• Participation is free and does not require a diagnosis
• We want to know how the course works for you! That’s why we ask you to complete a few short questionnaires before, during, and after the course.
