Keep in mind that the Sanity Score works best if you fear you might have an issue, but want to sort of double-check and see if indeed it's something to be concerned about.

It also works best when you compare your own scores against your scores throughout time. As such, it can be used to gauge one's progress in treatment over time, but if you don't know where you were at the beginning of treatment, then "high" might not be high at all for you.

So if you started at a 230 but are down to a 180, you might not know that if you only have the 180 number (since it wasn't available years ago to take).

Comparing against other people's numbers is okay to do, but not if it brings ya down!
