0-16 low stress, 17-24 medium stress, 25-32 high stress

You are showing some of the symptoms of stress, suggesting that you may not always be coping with the day-to-day pressure you are under.


My score would be a lot higher if I included 'sh1t that doesn't really work'...

10 out of 32.

I think my swerve on the career path is doing me some good. Last year, or the one before, I suspect I'd have been up in Tim's neck of the woods. :?

You are generally coping well with the day-to-day pressure you are under.

Because I get irritable with family and friends not appreciating the limits of my memory; because I have problems sleeping certainly normal hours, and being very easily distracted again both because of the amnesia. Strip those out and I get a score of 0
