I’m glad I’ve never taken it before because I definitely would’ve interpreted it as a sign that I didn’t really experience anything bad and that I’m just so bad at everything I can’t function in even a normal environment. At least now I can stand up for myself and say that’s not true. Still sucks to feel unseen by a test whose name claims to be general.
I hope this result doesn’t put you off of looking for the help you need. Remember that this is just a tool out of many available now and while this wasn’t for you, that doesn’t mean there’s not something for you out there.
Well, I mostly solved the depression with estrogen, and coincidentally I’m seeing a therapist tomorrow for what I think to be CPTSD and some other symptoms I don’t know much about. I’m suddenly collecting an avalanche of diagnoses it would seem.

Have you taken the ACES test? I thought it was a great eye opener. At least it was for me.

Ugh been there. In my case an autoimmune condition was the culprit in the end. Hope you find an answer to what is bothering you, friend.
