You appear to be suffering from moderate to severe depressive symptoms commonly associated with serious depressive disorders, such as major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder or dysthymia.

I don't trust that kind of test if it has obvious answers. >_>

12.

The way the first link's questionnaire read though, by the time you got to the bottom, you're guaranteed to feel worse than when you started just from mere suggestion. Holy crap those were depressing questions.

Anyone who thinks about killing themselves 'nearly all the time' is probably pretty aware that something is wrong in the first place...

Actually, you'd be surprised. The question's specifically about how to kill yourself, which is quite severe, but suicidal ideation can creep up unnoticed: fantasies about death, vague 'I'd never really want it to happen' daydreams about jumping, all hidden in the guise of the imp of the perverse.

You scored a total of 15.

You appear to be experiencing some very mild depressive symptoms, most of which are commonly found amongst the general population. It is unclear as to whether you suffer these problems severely enough to need to seek further diagnosis and treatment of them.


At lot of that is because I'm approaching a cross road and I'm not quite sure where things are going.

24 and 29, though I'm surprised I didn't score higher.  My current mental state is far too complex to be diagnosed by one of these simple tests.

36... probably shouldn't be surprised.

5.

I could have answered the one about fatigue as somewhat or higher, but that is due to just physical activity. I could have answered "do I feel trapped" as somewhat, but very rarely do I feel that way. Otherwise, I was truthful. :D

Then again, I am mostly a hopeless Optimist.

23, probably because I'm stressed out and moving

60?  Seriously?  They must not have heard about the importance of weighted averaging.  I should be at least a 75.

....  And despite hitting 'not at all' for most of the questions, I got an 18 for mania.
Title: Re: Depressingly depressing
Post by: Droid803 on May 16, 2011, 09:25:06 pm
8 on depression
17 on mania (mostly because I HAVE SPECIAL PLANS FOR THE WORLD. MMMMHMMM YESS YESSSSSS. but that's about all.)

37 on the depression
&
26 on Mania

Eh, probably because Im working on a 2,000 word essay. That was due several hours ago. And I have about 500 words and cant seem to forum arguments and decisions. I am looking forward to the history essay I have to do after this one though :D

22 and 14.... I am mildly depressed, but I don't think it's my fault.

36 and 32...really...I guess I'm not really the "cut, slash" type, even though I can feel almost that low, but mine just won't turn into self harm...

I wonder how the test would react if you answered all of the Depression questions for the best possible score, except for the "How to kill yourself" one as "Nearly all the time."


Anyway, I scored a 53 and a 19.  I am not surprised... much of my life seems to be falling apart right now :/

Title: Re: Depressingly depressing
Post by: Enigmatic Entity on May 19, 2011, 04:37:41 am
You get 84. If you answer all of them as "Nearly all the time", you get 89...

Well that's good. Each question has its own weight based on the type of question it is.  At least there's some sense to it.

Crazily enough, I scored 27 on mania and could have easily scored much higher.

If I were to commit suicide, I'd do it by standing in front of the tube.

For me it was from up very very high. Guess I wanted at least the feeling of flying. :rolleyes:

I got a 19 on the first one. When I first saw the score, I thought the thing was rigged to make me feel depressed... 'til I read that it says the lower the score, the less depressed. :D

... Scored a 45 on the second. :<
