Question 4

Elena has recently transitioned to working entirely from home. Despite reassurance from her family and friends that the local neighborhood is safe, Elena is convinced that if she steps outside her front door, she will immediately suffer a medical emergency or be targeted by criminals. As a result, she relies entirely on home deliveries and has cut off all physical contact with the outside world.

Explain how one alternative to the medical model of mental health could account for Elena's behaviour.
