Just like me
A lot like me
Sometimes
A little like me
Not at all like me
I often feel overwhelmed by my responsibilities.
I am unhappy with my living situation, but find myself unable to take effective steps to change it.
I am not doing a good job of taking care of my personal finances and affairs.
I am avoiding activities that used to be pleasurable.
I am avoiding places and situations that will cause me anxiety
My confidence in my ability to do things is undermined as I live an increasingly restricted lifestyle ruled by fears
I am not maintaining activities that provide pleasure or support such as meeting friends, doing hobbies, playing sport or going for walks.
I engage in distracting behaviours to keep myself from getting anxious, for example I clench and unclench my hands, I ask reassuring questions all the time, I scan my surroundings continuously or I drink sleeping pills or alcohol to calm me down.
I have had problems and shocks lately, but I am working through it by talking about it with safe people.
I know that it takes time to recover from trauma and I am patient and kind to myself during this process.
I tend to get locked into obsessive thoughts and ruminating endlessly.
