The Depression test.

[tehfeen83]

I got 20. God, I can't even do well on a depression test! That's so depressing.

I said that I've thought about how I would commit suicide, and it told me that I'm a soon-to-be suicidal.

Really? I think about suicide out of pure curiosity, not out of thinking that I'm going to do so.

That test also has a question of "do you feel depressed?" What a creative way of assessing depression!

14, is that a good thing. Sometimes i feel slightly down..as though i feel like i could have achieved a lot more, although im only 19.

I don't need to take a test, I actually have a chemical imbalance in my brain that causes depression, and that's what I take medication for

I scored a 2. I'll say that this test is total BS and couldn't possibly diagnose anything because of it's vague questions.

Almost everyone feels down from time to time. As a former psychology major, I can tell you just how easy it is to research some disorder and immediately start going, "Holy shit! I've got this!" just because you might exhibit very minor signs of a qualifier or two of the disorder.

I still score a 2, not because I know how to answer or because my life is great. In fact, I think my life is pretty good, but just because it might be accurate on that aspect, doesn't mean that you should take this seriously. I don't trust any psychological evaluation unless it's certified by a psychological association and at least 300 or so quesitons.

36 - 53 Moderate to severe depression

That's a bit of a shocker. I thought I was doing OK. I figured everyone feels like I do wrt life >_>

Possibly minor depression.

I don't know that I'd agree with the assessment, but I'm certainly not overtly happy; being unable to locate a stable source of income for the past ten months will do that to you.

I believe you're experiencing the same thing as 90% of the world's population. Everyone thinks they could have done things better at some point.

4 here. I love my life, even if I am a lonely arsehole.

 

[Polyg0n]

39 points. "You are having suicidal thoughts. This is a serious warning sign, and you must seek help quickly."

Surprised me as I don't really consider myself that depressed. I'm having kinda hard time at the moment but future looks promising so I'm not worried. Bullshit test.

I hate these stupid tests. The internet is the reason we have so many people self diagnosing. If you're worried something is wrong go see a bloody doctor.

10 - 17 Possibly minor depression lol .... weres my meds

 

[Jewrean]

Level 34.

Good family, good friends, average career, no girlfriend (and probably never will). Makes sense.

 

[Atmos Duality]

PFft. I don't need Goldberg to tell me the bloomin' obvious.
Lets just say that I have a very realistic outlook on life.

 

[Joshimodo]

74! I am king of being depressed.

Also I love how one of the questions was do you feel depressed.

Depression doesn't directly apply to your mood. You can FEEL one way, but your mind and body don't.

Got a 67, and that's mild for me. Doesn't make any difference, seeing as I've already been diagnosed with clinical chronic unipolar depression.

10, depression can go ---- itself.

 

[Vykrel]

level 7. im a pretty happy dude, but i get bored and tired. i think that raised my score more than it should have
