How results are interpreted

Each answer is scored 0 (Not at all / Never) to 4 (Constantly / Very Often). Your total score maps to one of four reflection tiers:

• Low concern. Your responses suggest you are experiencing minimal mental health symptoms at this time. Continuing to practice good self-care and stress management is beneficial.
• Some concerns. Your responses indicate mild to moderate symptoms. You might benefit from self-care strategies or discussing your feelings with a supportive person or professional.
• Consider reaching out. Your responses suggest moderate to severe symptoms that may be interfering with your daily life. Consider scheduling an evaluation to discuss your symptoms and explore support options.
• Professional evaluation recommended. Your responses indicate significant symptoms that are likely impacting your well-being. We strongly recommend scheduling a professional psychiatric evaluation.
