Tick what you recognise. You get back a plain map of how your system responds — and what each pattern actually is, rather than what you have probably been telling yourself about it. Nothing is stored or sent.

Why the map is more useful than a score
There is no total here, deliberately. Being in three categories is not worse than being in one — the useful thing is knowing which state you are currently in, because that determines what will help. The input that settles a system that has gone up is not the input that brings back one that has gone down.
If you want the picture behind all of this, the window of tolerance is the single most useful idea in this field, and the four responses sit on the same axis.
What this is not
Not a diagnosis, and not an assessment. It is a mirror, and it knows nothing about you beyond what you ticked. If the physical items are the ones you recognised most, the first stop is a doctor rather than a therapist.
