Please read
Not a diagnosis, not medical advice. These are self-report screening and reflection tools. A score can suggest that something is worth talking about with a professional, but only a qualified clinician can assess or diagnose a condition.
Not for decisions about other people. Please don't use them to screen employees, students or partners.
If you are struggling, please reach out to someone today. In Japan you can call よりそいホットライン on 0120-279-338 (24 hours), in Korea 109, in Indonesia 119 ext. 8 (Healing119), and anywhere else you can find a free helpline at findahelpline.com. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.

Privacy and anonymous statistics
By default nothing is stored. Answers stay in your browser and disappear when you close the page. There are no cookies, trackers or analytics on these pages.
Optional anonymous sharing. Before a questionnaire starts you may be asked whether to add an anonymous copy of your answers to the site statistics. It is opt-in, for adults (18+) only, and your results are the same either way.
What is kept if you agree: the questionnaire, language, date (no time), your answers and scores, a random deletion code, and optional background answers (age band, gender, country, and sometimes main activity or relationship status). No name, email, IP address or device information is collected, and answers to different questionnaires cannot be linked.
Where and why: a private Google Sheet owned by the site author, used only for anonymous statistics about these pages, such as average scores by language. The data is not sold, shared, or published as research.
Deletion: email the code shown at the end of the questionnaire to
