A score of 0-6 in the first section suggests you may be experiencing normal reactions to daily stressors or life circumstances and is not typically indicative of a personality disorder. However, this assessment is not conclusive. To get definitive answers, we highly recommend seeking the help of Clinical Psychologist like those here at Elysian.

A score of 7+ in the first section suggests you may be experiencing a form of personality difficulty, but there are many of these. If you answered “Yes” to Question #14 AND “Moderate” or “Serious” to Question #15, this could indicate a form of Bipolar Disorder. However, this assessment is not conclusive. Personality difficulties require the careful attention of a Clinical Psychologist like those here at Elysian.

NOTE: if you ever have any thoughts of hurting yourself or others, please contact 911, the National Suicide & Crisis Helpline by dialing 988, or the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-8255.
