Oh this test is like my biggest fear. I can't remember how I've felt the past 2 weeks and if I went to the doctor and they told me nothing is wrong and I don't get a diagnosis I think my world would flip. If this is normal how am I supposed to live?
It is absolutely normal (edit: to have these worries if you do have anxiety, I mean, not to have anxiety) and living day-to-day and having trouble remembering the previous days/weeks can also be a part of anxiety disorders. If you're looking for a diagnosis and are worried you may not remember enough issues to answer truthfully, I suggest writing them down. Either have a small notebook and pen or simply a notes app on your phone and make a note whenever you notice you're feeling bad. Even a quick one can do if you're in a pinch. Just try to review them at the end of the day and add something that may help you remember the situation, like a name or place. Then simply count them. This can also be helpful if you at any point get a therapist and decide to discuss these issues with them but have trouble measuring the impact they have on your life. Hope it helps, best of luck on your journey ❤ - a fellow person with anxiety
I always knew I had anxiety ever since I was like 9 but honestly I didn’t think it was that bad.... I have learned ways to calm myself down but some days are just harder then others, one day I will get a real diagnosis
The comments below represent the most common comments/questions that come up after an anxiety test like this one. I sat down together with a Psychologist, and together we formulated these three videos for you. These are private videos only accessible to those who have seen the original anxiety test video. "I feel like I have anxiety, but I don't want to self-diagnose." th-cam.com/video/b3fCPF0WWPs/w-d-xo.html "Sometimes I don't trust myself with questions like these because I feel like I'm lying to myself" th-cam.com/video/-NVyfaDTKEU/w-d-xo.html "I can't even talk about my feelings to anyone without crying." th-cam.com/video/QxcLYSoSpyE/w-d-xo.html
I'm glad you came around because you are telling me something that a lot of people don't understand our language cuz they think it's backwards was actually going forward but they can't comprehension what the words that come on our mouth
I was always a person who was always nervous and stressed but I never thought it could be anxiety, I just took this test and got 17, which means I have severe anxiety, but I never knew it was that bad.
I have very bad anxiety where I’m at 21, the max points, severe anxiety. It’s affects every day of my life and it’s so bad that I just don’t know how to walk up and talk to someone at all.
I got a 21/21. But the reason for this is because I am living with abusive parents, so it's no surprise. Before you think there is a problem with you, look at your environment and ask if this is a normal reaction to a hostile environment.
My parents knew I had anxiety ever since I was 4 and they were almost certain Bec my dad has it. And every test I do for fun I get one of the possible highest results which is most the time, severe anxiety. I really wanna get diagnosed so I’m 100% sure that I actually have it tho.
I know I already have anxiety as I am diagnosed, and have done this test several times before, but I loved that you included the severity bit. It helped me to realize that my anxiety is as severe as it feels, and that's an oddly comforting feeling.
I've got 19 on this test, 12/12 on the dyscalculia and 5/9 on the dyslexia test. My anxiety is not as bad as it used to be, but it was really bad when I still lived with my parents. I also think I have ADHD and lately I've been wondering if it is all connected. I think I developed anxiety because of undiagnosed ADHD and severe diagnosed dyscalculia. When I was a kid I had a lot of panic attacks and began to develop social anxiety. And I think I have developed GAD as a teenager. I finally got the right help now at age 28 and I'm hopefull for a future in where I can finish an education and have a job and have a normal life.
You’re definitely not alone with that struggle and I’m glad you’re getting the help you need to cope. Try to have compassion and patience with yourself, I know you can do it!
When they hit the pandemic I wasn't tripping because I always was born by myself with family but I know how to take care of myself by myself so when they kept everybody in the house it is made me want to do more okay so what are you good at I'm going to get on here I'mma make some good music I'm going to cooking and I'm going to take care of myself like I've been doing so it didn't
As someone who has had anxiety since I was 2 and professionally diagnosed, I can agree with this that I got a 18, and that is severe, and I was diagnosed with something similar to this so yes I would say if anybody is on edge with this test, I would say is pretty accurate for a TH-cam test.
The covid-19 tall people learn how to be by yourself I've been through that when I was a kid I didn't know I had dyslexia kids used to laugh at me in school like he can't read but I was smart and it took me time to figure out what my smartness is
I understand that you felt that way. People who struggle with anxiety experience these feelings in all kinds of different situations. Especially when the anxiety becomes generalized. Right now, you’re saying, “Your pacing induced anxiety within me.”. That means that you make your environment responsible for your anxiety. The problem with that is that we generally don’t have a lot of influence on our environment. And therefore, you also don’t have a lot of influence on how you feel. If, on the other hand, you except that you struggle with anxiety. It turns into something that you do have influence on; it turns into something that you can change. By clicking on this video you have already made a decision to explore this side of yourself.If you decide to continue, you will be able to find out where these feelings are coming from. And that way, you would start to understand which fears you can let go of. A psychologist can help with that.
1. 3, every single day. 2. 1, I am kind of worried a lot 3. 0, not really. 4. 2, I have trouble relaxing 5. 2, I have never sat still 6. 3, I AM ALWAYS ANNOYED 7. 1, not really. 12 points of anxiety EEEEEE MOD ANXIETY 😮😮
uhh what kind of qwestion's ware though.. ehh ??!! i don't control my over thinking. i just over think 1000x for sinpel thing's and think aout people judging me i just don't controle my thought's i am just overly scared as being a normal human being. and second of all i don't get erritated tword's anyone cun i am busy not trying to be strange to them . who am i to be erretated aboutt. and also i would discribe my anxity as beyond the scare of sevear anxity for your scare. i even have 2 types of panic attacks when i am in public. it trumatised me as a kid. i would qwestion the way i am crying and think about how ugly i am looking even though their is no one in the room.
My lord, did I really just get motherfucking 20?? I think this is just because this month has been stressful. If it was during summer, I probs would have gotten moderate.
so according to videos i am Dislexic, ADHD, and have Severe Anxiety. Ive known since i was a kid that i had ADHD, I also have Major Depression Disorder (MDD). Yet it seems like people i go to talk about it ignore it. I desperatly want help but i am unable to pay for a doctor to help me.
I’ve always had it, my parents even admit to me having it. As a kid I would stress myself out, then overthink about how I was overthinking, so I would bite myself to stop worrying. It got so bad about 2 years ago. I would have anxiety attacks 2 a day in and out of school to the point where I would throw up. I’ve gotten better but I still stress and can’t calm myself. My parents tell me I should stop worrying. They won’t take me to a doctor. I also think I may have ADHD that could have spiraled from my anxiety. They tell me I need to stop over thinking and focus on other things. I’ll have months where my anxiety is there but is calmer and months where it’s hard not to yell at someone from all that’s built up inside. Hopefully when Im off enough I’ll get myself checked out. 😅 I also got a 12 lol
Oh my god, I feel so seen. I've experienced nearly the exact same things - but instead of ADHD, I think I am autistic. For all my life, I've felt like an outcast, like I was weird or... Different. For years, I've been slowly suspecting that I may be autistic. I've been doing research on it for a while, I've gotten word from people who have actually been diagnosed with autism, etc etc. I relate to autistic people so much, I feel understood by many autistic folks. I've tried to get an official diagnosis, I want to know if my suspicions are correct, I've tried, but only once. My doctor brushed me off because, and I quote, "do well in school." The thing is, most the time I was in school, I had to cheat to get my grades higher - which, I am ashamed to admit. I'd get 40s-50s out of 100 on my tests, I never made much friends, I always felt like it was something I did, I was scared to even ask to go to the bathroom. I don't do well in school. I've done some shameful things in school - that are now on my permanent record. That's really the only reason he gave. He brushed me off, in that very moment, I brushed myself off, too. Everyone telling me I wasn't autistic, yet treated me different for no reason I could think of. My whole life, I was treated differently, I never knew why, and I still don't know why. In that very moment in front of my mother, I knew she'd never believe me now. Before so, she didn't believe be still, but now she's sure of it because it was reassured by awful medical care. Where I live, health care is some of the worst in the country. Many of my other doctors and therapists were horrible, making me not wanting to reach out for some mental help. And now, I am sure I'll never ask for a doctors help again. Over and over, told I was wrong, I started to believe it. And now, I'm in some sort of black and white area - it's like as if I believed it but half of me also didn't because everyone else didn't. I've always wanted to fit in, and to make sure I do, some of me has stopped believing myself. I'm not sure if this really holds weight, but I've also taken many tests made by professionals and researchers and such, like the one in this video, haha. On every single one, I've gotten a high probability of being autistic. I'm not saying this automatically makes me autistic, but its something to think about. My sister has ADHD, too. I've heard many neurodivergent people have family members with similar neurodivergent conditions, as well. I have severe depression and anxiety too. That doesn't make life any easier, in fact, it makes it worse. It's hard for me to process any of what I'm told, information, instructions, emotions, simple controls.. I overthink, I get worried someone's out to get me, all of it just piles on, really. It was hard for me to accept that I had severe anxiety and depression when I was diagnosed. Even if I knew I was depressed and anxious, actually being diagnosed was hard to understand for me. To this day, I still don't want to accept it, and this was years ago. I don't want to accept it because I don't want it to be true. I wish I could fit in, I wish I could understand social cues, I wish I knew what was happening with me, I wish I understood why no one in my life likes me, and treats me different, I wish I could understand why no one believes me or wants to help me. I still am unable to get help, out of fear of being hurt and invalidated again and again, and the times I've tried getting help always ended horribly, with my family seeing me as a worse person or something. It just hurts, it's hard. I'm really sorry if I talk a lot. I have a hard time explaining myself simply. I'm also sorry you went through that. I'm not exactly like you, but dammit it's hard to not relate. I bite myself too, I overthink too. I really do feel seen by your comment, since I relate so hard. I've never really been seen, so this is something new, and something that touched my heart. I'm sorry you went/are going through this. I really really do hope for the best for you. ❤
oh oh no. i was given an exact copy of this test by a doctor and still haven't done it out of "anxiey" if you will, i can never process my thoughts on literally anything and can barely choose a choice for myself, for example me at the doctor trying to explain this exact thing, lol
eh, 14-15 but I don't see what good it would do to pay for a diagnosis..... i guess, I don't see how it's helpful. To know, is helpful but a notorized piece of paper doesn't make it better.... Aquiring money is stressful (adds to the anxiety of life), so aquiring more money to get a diagnosis is like putting gangrene in an open wound. I do believe getting help is always good but sometimes it is not cost effective. :( Thanks for sharing!!
I get what you are saying. Prices for diagnoses can be absolutely ridiculous and it's not always even the magic solution. However, if the diagnosis helps someone accept that anxiety is something they struggle with, then I think it would be worth it. Basically, the issue is that if people make external factors responsible for their anxiety, then it remains outside of their own control. But as soon as they accept that they themselves struggle with anxiety, then it turns into something they do have control over, something they can change and win agency over with time. That being said, if somebody manages to do this without a diagnosis, then I see nothing wrong with that either. An extra session with a psychologist might be a better investment in that case.
i dont know if i have an anxiety disorder but i do experience anxiety? when i have lots of exams at school which usually last around a month, i could probably score for severe anxiety but currently that i dont have anything that stressful going on i got mild anxiety. do i really have it or am i just self sabotaging?
Meh i got an 8 and i’ve had general and social anxiety my whole life. I’m also on meds though. So who knows. Like he said, only a professional can tell you for sure.
Me getting 18: “WAIT SHIT I WAS RIGHT. I’m not crazy lol” btw I’m planning to see someone at some point during uni so I can do it away from family since they make me feel as if they will sweep this kinda stuff under the rug and they don’t really seem to listen
Being honest it's more than difficult not to have all the questions with answer 3, or 2 (one of them in my case) when you got a war just behind the border and two million refugees in your country. I live in Warsaw, less than 100 meters away from Ukrainian consulate. I try to help and provide people waiting there for hours (some of them decide to spend a night outside the consulate to be sure they get served in the morning) with coffee, hot water, instant soups or sandwiches. I understand the test is universal, created in pre-covid era, but today I guess most of people here would be on top of the list with high number of points. Thank you for this video nonetheless, it helps to understand one's thinking. Have you considered making a video about where's the "norm"? I mean I'm dyslexic, recently learned I have ADHD (it's a totally new concept for me but allows me to understand why I struggled so much as a kid). I see many examples of being out of the so called norm, but are there like boundaries within which the norm is? Are there even any "normal" people (I hate this word in terms of dyslexia and I don't want to insult anyone, it's just that I don't know how else to tell you what I want to say)?
The way dyslexia is diagnosed is not very consistent which is a big critique points already for many years. So I guess we’re not really sure what exactly the Norm is. But it is a very interesting topic and and a good idea for a upcoming video.
Number one I say no number two I say no number three I say yes number four sometimes number five yes I think I passed the test I don't have dyslexia well I do in a sense
Moderate. And indeed, I was diagnosed with Anxiety and depression. Pills are helping me with the anxiety, with depression I am still struggling at times
No I don't think like that yes I was raised with dyslexia and it paying me so much because I didn't even know what I had but I was trying to do the best I can to pass my classes I did on the sense because they help me and that's what gave me the motivation to want to move forward I graduated with a Beat maybe you see minus or some s*** I don't know I forgot but I want the stage
I got 16 and I've always known something was wrong since I was like 13, but I don't think anyone will believe me cause whenever I bring these things up I'm always ignored or told I'm exaggerating
Im a little disappointed. When I was about 14/15y/o I was diagnosed with moderate anxiety and it seems to still be in the moderate zone as a score of 13. (i'm 20 y/o now) I've been hoping im getting better, but its stayed the same. At least its not worse!
I knew I had anxiety, but not Sever Anxiety...I mean, I do have some phobias here and then, but I never knew I had that much of anxiety. I thought I went through it in 9th and 10th grade.
Thank you so much for making this video, it’s helped show me how much progress I’ve made after years of dealing with severe anxiety often caused by my ASD. I just got 9 which is incredible for me, because even though the anxiety is still there I’ve improved massively from where I was before.
I’ve been living with severe anxiety for more than 10 years. It is like a living hell, being constantly on the edge. These days I can’t even remember what happened in last few days due to mind fogging.
I scored 17 and I do have trouble functioning with this, so much that I isolate as a result. If I were to speak to a professional about this how would it help me?
I don’t even know why I’m here 💀💀 I have severe social and general anxiety and some separation anxiety with certain people and I’ve been diagnosed already 😅
I got a 15.. but I feel like I always knew.. my mother also has diagnosed severe anxiety, we are very alike and it makes total sense.... but I feel like our anxiety is more social than anything
I've taken this test a number of times in my life each time the results have reflected how **** my boss at the time was, so it seems to me more a test of how anxiety inducing your work is more than if you have an anxiety disorder?
In your situation that seems to be about right. I’ve been lucky when it comes to the bosses that I had up till now. But I can imagine that a bad relationship with a boss can be seriously anxiety inducing.
I have dyslexia I was Raising born with dyslexia what I found out about dyslexia you find out about things that's close to you instead of things that's not close I've been going through anxiety and my heart rate every time I go to the doctor I'm good but they don't understand what type of anxiety you might have because like you want to do things in your own and you think you have to depend on somebody else to do it for you no we are very smart individuals that's why I should be president
No a license professional don't know what dyslexia is because it is doctors it's politicians that have dyslexia it's your mind thinking for how your brain work your brain waves your brain waves with a certain certain distance if you check it we very smart individuals all because I'm not talking the way other people talk I talk very good but we are very smart individuals we could be rich we could do everything everybody else do all because I have a real disability and I can't spell words I can't read on my own sometimes that don't make me dumb I'm smarter for you this by you saying that
no offence but half the quistions are repeated 1st was "have you felt nervous?" 2nd was " couldn't you stop worrying?" 3rd was " couldn't you stop worying the last week?" they just paraphrasing same for 4th & 5th
I'm officially diagnosed with severe anxiety for years (almost a decade at this point) and things haven't changed much 🥲 Scored 21, I really don't know if my last 2 weeks were REALLY bad for my anxiety (work-wise and health-wise) or if my anxiety is still too severe... 🤔 Now I've just entered work vacation (a little bit more of a month to rest), surely some things I scored a 3 rn will be 1 or a 2 in a few weeks
Oh this test is like my biggest fear. I can't remember how I've felt the past 2 weeks and if I went to the doctor and they told me nothing is wrong and I don't get a diagnosis I think my world would flip. If this is normal how am I supposed to live?
It is absolutely normal (edit: to have these worries if you do have anxiety, I mean, not to have anxiety) and living day-to-day and having trouble remembering the previous days/weeks can also be a part of anxiety disorders.

Your pacing induced anxiety... Cannot accurately keep track of my answers because of that.
I understand that you felt that way. People who struggle with anxiety experience these feelings in all kinds of different situations. Especially when the anxiety becomes generalized.
Right now, you’re saying, “Your pacing induced anxiety within me.”. That means that you make your environment responsible for your anxiety.

Where I live, health care is some of the worst in the country. Many of my other doctors and therapists were horrible, making me not wanting to reach out for some mental help. And now, I am sure I'll never ask for a doctors help again. Over and over, told I was wrong, I started to believe it. And now, I'm in some sort of black and white area - it's like as if I believed it but half of me also didn't because everyone else didn't. I've always wanted to fit in, and to make sure I do, some of me has stopped believing myself. I'm not sure if this really holds weight, but I've also taken many tests made by professionals and researchers and such, like the one in this video, haha. On every single one, I've gotten a high probability of being autistic. I'm not saying this automatically makes me autistic, but its something to think about. My sister has ADHD, too. I've heard many neurodivergent people have family members with similar neurodivergent conditions, as well.
I have severe depression and anxiety too. That doesn't make life any easier, in fact, it makes it worse. It's hard for me to process any of what I'm told, information, instructions, emotions, simple controls.. I overthink, I get worried someone's out to get me, all of it just piles on, really. It was hard for me to accept that I had severe anxiety and depression when I was diagnosed. Even if I knew I was depressed and anxious, actually being diagnosed was hard to understand for me. To this day, I still don't want to accept it, and this was years ago. I don't want to accept it because I don't want it to be true. I wish I could fit in, I wish I could understand social cues, I wish I knew what was happening with me, I wish I understood why no one in my life likes me, and treats me different, I wish I could understand why no one believes me or wants to help me. I still am unable to get help, out of fear of being hurt and invalidated again and again, and the times I've tried getting help always ended horribly, with my family seeing me as a worse person or something. It just hurts, it's hard.
I'm really sorry if I talk a lot. I have a hard time explaining myself simply. I'm also sorry you went through that. I'm not exactly like you, but dammit it's hard to not relate. I bite myself too, I overthink too. I really do feel seen by your comment, since I relate so hard. I've never really been seen, so this is something new, and something that touched my heart. I'm sorry you went/are going through this. I really really do hope for the best for you. ❤
Ah a fellow biter, I see you are a man of culture Sir.
Wow everyone here got so high. I got 4 but I also know I don't have anxiety. I'm just doing this for fun lol
oh oh no. i was given an exact copy of this test by a doctor and still haven't done it out of "anxiey" if you will, i can never process my thoughts on literally anything and can barely choose a choice for myself, for example me at the doctor trying to explain this exact thing, lol
i have qwestion about the tests. anxity is a socal problem . what if some one didn't go out side for last 2 weeks.
eh, 14-15 but I don't see what good it would do to pay for a diagnosis..... i guess, I don't see how it's helpful. To know, is helpful but a notorized piece of paper doesn't make it better.... Aquiring money is stressful (adds to the anxiety of life), so aquiring more money to get a diagnosis is like putting gangrene in an open wound. I do believe getting help is always good but sometimes it is not cost effective. :( Thanks for sharing!!
I get what you are saying. Prices for diagnoses can be absolutely ridiculous and it's not always even the magic solution. However, if the diagnosis helps someone accept that anxiety is something they struggle with, then I think it would be worth it.
Basically, the issue is that if people make external factors responsible for their anxiety, then it remains outside of their own control. But as soon as they accept that they themselves struggle with anxiety, then it turns into something they do have control over, something they can change and win agency over with time.
That being said, if somebody manages to do this without a diagnosis, then I see nothing wrong with that either. An extra session with a psychologist might be a better investment in that case.
I had severe anxiety but Indian parents actually don't care about mental health.
Severe anxiety I actually counted all 3s so 21..
I have ocd so it causes anxiety around hand washing but prob not my other anxiety but idk
i dont know if i have an anxiety disorder but i do experience anxiety?
when i have lots of exams at school which usually last around a month, i could probably score for severe anxiety but currently that i dont have anything that stressful going on i got mild anxiety. do i really have it or am i just self sabotaging?
Meh i got an 8 and i’ve had general and social anxiety my whole life. I’m also on meds though. So who knows. Like he said, only a professional can tell you for sure.
Me getting 18: “WAIT SHIT I WAS RIGHT. I’m not crazy lol” btw I’m planning to see someone at some point during uni so I can do it away from family since they make me feel as if they will sweep this kinda stuff under the rug and they don’t really seem to listen
This is so helpful Arije! 👏
Glad it helped!
Being honest it's more than difficult not to have all the questions with answer 3, or 2 (one of them in my case) when you got a war just behind the border and two million refugees in your country. I live in Warsaw, less than 100 meters away from Ukrainian consulate. I try to help and provide people waiting there for hours (some of them decide to spend a night outside the consulate to be sure they get served in the morning) with coffee, hot water, instant soups or sandwiches.
I understand the test is universal, created in pre-covid era, but today I guess most of people here would be on top of the list with high number of points. Thank you for this video nonetheless, it helps to understand one's thinking.
Have you considered making a video about where's the "norm"? I mean I'm dyslexic, recently learned I have ADHD (it's a totally new concept for me but allows me to understand why I struggled so much as a kid). I see many examples of being out of the so called norm, but are there like boundaries within which the norm is? Are there even any "normal" people (I hate this word in terms of dyslexia and I don't want to insult anyone, it's just that I don't know how else to tell you what I want to say)?
The way dyslexia is diagnosed is not very consistent which is a big critique points already for many years. So I guess we’re not really sure what exactly the Norm is. But it is a very interesting topic and and a good idea for a upcoming video.
And of course you’re right All the things going on in Ukraine are definitely terrifying…
Number one I say no number two I say no number three I say yes number four sometimes number five yes I think I passed the test I don't have dyslexia well I do in a sense
I’m watching this at 4:30am… i think I have my answer💀
I knew i had anxiety but not servere :,] (18 btw)
Moderate. And indeed, I was diagnosed with Anxiety and depression. Pills are helping me with the anxiety, with depression I am still struggling at times
bro i got 13, i can feel it's been worse lately
No I don't think like that yes I was raised with dyslexia and it paying me so much because I didn't even know what I had but I was trying to do the best I can to pass my classes I did on the sense because they help me and that's what gave me the motivation to want to move forward I graduated with a Beat maybe you see minus or some s*** I don't know I forgot but I want the stage
I scored 17 :')
I have Severe anxiety. Mine was 21
I love your work keep up the good work
I got a 3 so I guess my meds are working.😂
Ain't no way I just got 21/21
I got 21.
17 damn didn't know it was that bad..
19 a few weeks ago now its 12
i scored a 10 im 11, so...im not sure what to do...i need help.....?
10 isn't too but but if you think you do have anxiety then you should probably talk to a professional to get diagnosed
i have minimal anxiety
I got 16 and I've always known something was wrong since I was like 13, but I don't think anyone will believe me cause whenever I bring these things up I'm always ignored or told I'm exaggerating
damn i got 17
Im a little disappointed. When I was about 14/15y/o I was diagnosed with moderate anxiety and it seems to still be in the moderate zone as a score of 13. (i'm 20 y/o now) I've been hoping im getting better, but its stayed the same. At least its not worse!
I knew I had anxiety, but not Sever Anxiety...I mean, I do have some phobias here and then, but I never knew I had that much of anxiety. I thought I went through it in 9th and 10th grade.
Thank you so much for making this video, it’s helped show me how much progress I’ve made after years of dealing with severe anxiety often caused by my ASD. I just got 9 which is incredible for me, because even though the anxiety is still there I’ve improved massively from where I was before.
I got 18 O.O
I’ve been living with severe anxiety for more than 10 years. It is like a living hell, being constantly on the edge. These days I can’t even remember what happened in last few days due to mind fogging.
17/24 slay
20
i got 20 o(-(
I scored 17 and I do have trouble functioning with this, so much that I isolate as a result. If I were to speak to a professional about this how would it help me?
I don’t even know why I’m here 💀💀 I have severe social and general anxiety and some separation anxiety with certain people and I’ve been diagnosed already 😅
I got 18.
I got a 15.. but I feel like I always knew.. my mother also has diagnosed severe anxiety, we are very alike and it makes total sense.... but I feel like our anxiety is more social than anything
I got 20
i got 14
.....
I've taken this test a number of times in my life each time the results have reflected how **** my boss at the time was, so it seems to me more a test of how anxiety inducing your work is more than if you have an anxiety disorder?
In your situation that seems to be about right. I’ve been lucky when it comes to the bosses that I had up till now. But I can imagine that a bad relationship with a boss can be seriously anxiety inducing.
i got 17
I think I'm good. My anxiety is environmental based
Mild
I have dyslexia I was Raising born with dyslexia what I found out about dyslexia you find out about things that's close to you instead of things that's not close I've been going through anxiety and my heart rate every time I go to the doctor I'm good but they don't understand what type of anxiety you might have because like you want to do things in your own and you think you have to depend on somebody else to do it for you no we are very smart individuals that's why I should be president
Yep I'm on the severe side but seeing as I take medicine for anxiety that makes sense.
I scored 21! Did I win?
oh hell naw
I got 16, I am not surprised at all.
I was diagnosed with severe anxiety at the age of like 14 i think and then i took this test and got 20 on it so thats fun
Did way better than i thought. Got an 8.
People need a test to know if they have anxiety?
I got like around 16…
Good video.
thanks and good to hear from you!
@@ArijeAikedeHaas you as well. I have signed of FB for Lent. But will share your video after Easter. Hope you and yours are well.
No a license professional don't know what dyslexia is because it is doctors it's politicians that have dyslexia it's your mind thinking for how your brain work your brain waves your brain waves with a certain certain distance if you check it we very smart individuals all because I'm not talking the way other people talk I talk very good but we are very smart individuals we could be rich we could do everything everybody else do all because I have a real disability and I can't spell words I can't read on my own sometimes that don't make me dumb I'm smarter for you this by you saying that
no offence but half the quistions are repeated
1st was "have you felt nervous?"
2nd was " couldn't you stop worrying?"
3rd was " couldn't you stop worying the last week?"
they just paraphrasing
same for 4th & 5th
a person witch diagnosed anxiety here, if you even remember the last 2 weeks you don't have anxiety, many people with anxiety have memory loss
I'm officially diagnosed with severe anxiety for years (almost a decade at this point) and things haven't changed much 🥲 Scored 21, I really don't know if my last 2 weeks were REALLY bad for my anxiety (work-wise and health-wise) or if my anxiety is still too severe... 🤔
Now I've just entered work vacation (a little bit more of a month to rest), surely some things I scored a 3 rn will be 1 or a 2 in a few weeks
sometimes my balls hurt when i pee. and blood comes out. owch.
ps i am peeing rn, blood vomit emoji
me too i need to pee rn
same
