chickidee23 Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I think if you are worried about it, I would suggest going to see a professional. Bring these scores with you so you can discuss your concerns. Link to comment
Aleadragonhawk Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Remember that online tests are often for entertainment purposes only. The results can be incredibly inaccurate. Only if these tests are diagnostic tests designed by professionals in the field should you put weight in what they say, and even then you should be skeptical. With that said, if you think that you are suffering from depression, go see a doctor. Link to comment
flower99 Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I agree with aleadragonhawk. they are mostly for entertainment & incredibly general. I've taken the test before as well, I consider myself a happy go lucky person & it told me i was depressed & should see a doctor (I couldn't believe it..I laughed it off, maybe they make those to make money off pills? who knows).But yeah, if you are concerned, be aware that Doctors are very quick to give you pills rather than getting to the route of the problem. Personally, I would take it with a grain of salt. You decied what you are, not a test. Link to comment
