I filled out a 100 question test at counsellors and the results were weird. I just had a severe depression, enough to hurt myself and on the test it came back mild depression. Do you think because I was feeling good at the time of the test that that would influence a different score?

Yes mood would influence the test.

I guess the test results are a mirrorer reflection of your perceived response to questions - so I guess if you are coming out of a "severe depressive" episode and are feeling a bit better then yes the test result would perceived as being accurate in the reflection of "mild depression" as there is a dramatic difference between mild and severe.

Hehehehe maybe lol. Idk it was pretty elaborate and asked the same question, worded differently several times, throughout the test. Perhaps my lack of emotional insight ( meaning??? It's hard to remember how I felt and explain it) affected the results as well. I scored normal for personality and only slightly high for mania, which makes sense since I've never been manic only hypo and depressed. I only have had two severe depressions in my life (touch wood) so maybe because the last depression was almost ten years ago and I took this before this last depression could be the reason as well. Blah who cares right? Meds are working, counselling is helping so what more do I need to know haha.
