Wow, this is an interesting application especially for a math major that has been obsessed with figuring out how much of my issues is bi-polar & how much of my issues are PTSD from life experiences.
Here's my results...
1- PTSD 83 (mildly shocking)
2- Obsessive/compulsive 75 (this was a huge shock, never crossed my mind as an issue)
3- Anxiety 74
4- Depression 53
5- General Coping 50
6- Borderline traits 46
7- Phobias 42
8- Mania 40
9- physical issues 33
10- relationship 31
11- self esteem 25
dissociation 25
technology issues 25
14- Life events 22
15-Eating disorder 15
16- Sexual issues 6
17- drugs, smoking, drinking gambling 0

So people with experience in attacking this mental stuff head on, what's the best approach for you? Should I focus on the worst one 1st or get the lower score issues out of the way 1st so then I can see how much that effects the higher scores?
What do you guys think is a good baseline to just not worry about?

Well, the most I could suggest would be to go into therapy (if you aren't already) if these issues are really bothering you (not just by what the score is but by how it is affecting your life). I generally don't worry about stuff that's less that 50, because it's equivalent to be affecting me less then 1/2 of the time, maybe make a little note to self, but don't sweat the small stuff...but that's just me.

A Therapist isn't a real option for me right now, so I need to feel like I'm doing something to productively help myself.
I'm trying hard to use my mathemtical, logical, analytical way of solving problems which can be difficult to objectively do with yourself
