How to answer?
A stepwise procedure for answering and conditions or context:
Conditions:
- answer the questions from your experience without reference to periods of depression, unusually high anxiety or psychosis (including mania, if applicable) and not with reference to unusual outside circumstances;
- if your answer would be highly variable over time, even after considering the first condition, give an average/mean of all the scores/answers you could give, given your entire life thus far.
Steps to come to a score for each of the answers:
- start with 0 1 as your score;
- iff (only if) a question describes something that is more true for you than for most others, as far as you can tell, add 4 to your score;
- iff a question describes something that you find characteristic for you, add 2.
- iff a question describes something that you find more characteristic for you than most other characteristics you have, add 1.
If you feel you should deviate from this procedure to give a better, still more honest, answer, do so.

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
See Me, Feel Me, Touch Me, Heal Me.
