Good morning,
This test looks at depressive symptoms observed over the last two weeks. It examines four aspects: the tone of the mood, pleasure, the thoughts that keep coming back, and what the body signals — sleep, energy, appetite. The report brings these elements together and describes their intensity.
What you receive — a report written from your answers: what stands out, what sustains it, and where to start. This week, this month, later on.
How it is built — each axis is analyzed on its own, then cross-read with the others, through clinical reading frameworks. Your detailed answers are attached as an appendix. See an example report
The test runs over 64 questions and takes about 10 min, for a price of $3.60.
We'd also suggest reading the book Overcoming Anxiety and Stress, to take this reflection further. It's included in the price and downloadable.
