Take the Stress Test

Eradicate stress from your life. Get your stress score in minutes. Stress is something which everyone deals with in one way or another, it is a part of life.

But when stress becomes chronic, stress can effect our mental & physical health.  If you are here looking for solutions to cure your chronic fatigue, burnout & ME, you may not have made the connection between your level of stress & the level of exhausation you are feeling.  Similarly, if you are here looking for relief from stress, have you ever made the connection between the level of stress you are experiencing and the level of energy you have on a day to basis? 

During my healing journey I found the two were very much linked.   If you want to recover from stress, bunout, chronic fatigue or ME, the first step of every healing journey is to figure out where you are now.  The stress test is the first step on that journey.  Complete the stress test by answering 10 questions and get your instant stress score and interpretation.

Stress Test FAQ

What Is The Stress Test?

One of the most widely used stress tests is the Perceived Stress Scale which is a simple 10 question stress test.  The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) is a classic stress assessment instrument. The tool, while originally developed in 1983, remains a popular choice for helping us understand how different situations affect our feelings and our perceived stress.

How Do I Take The Stress Test?

The questions in the scale ask about your feelings and thoughts during the last month. In each case, you will be asked to indicate how often you felt or thought a certain way. 

The best approach is to answer each question fairly quickly. Don’t try to recall the number of times you felt a particular way; rather indicate that which seems to be a reasonable estimate. Click through and try the test.

How Will I Get My Stress Test Score?

You will get your stress test score instantly after completing the 10 question short questionnaire.

How Do I Interpret My Stress Score?

A short interpretation will be provided on screen to help you understand your score and what it means.
