Stick with it. A month seems like a long time, but you can make it.

I have trouble with those scales, too. When I was in the hospital after a c-section, they would ask that regarding my pain level. I learned to pick a number higher than what I felt like I should say, so that they'd still give me pain meds (this was like, two days after surgery--wasn't trying to get high, just was genuinely in pain!) And I have trouble taking tests for depression, etc., because I know how some of them are scored, so I could manipulate the results by my answers. Plus without being in someone else's head, it's hard to know what's "normal."
