Are you stressed?

Theres a quick test here http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-24756311

I scored 19.

The advice below the "your score" box says 1) Try to identify the source of your stress.

I already have, and the country has just "celebrated" the death of the only bloke who took great pains to remove the source of his stress. I doubt if I would succeed if I tried a similar technique to relieve the main source of mine.

well, it burnt well and when the smoke drifted over the village I didn't get many complaints.

Doing the test made me stressed.

As a prevaricator of the highest order, I laughed when I got to the making decisions one. I got 16.

9.  Hmm not sure it asked the right questions.  For instance where was "Do you get irritable with noisy twats on the train?". 

Clarky

it didn't ask if you go mental every time you see someone jump the lights

siremoon

Ah - I do that as well.  D'Oh :-S

17, so low medium stress. Intersting as when I filled out a slightly more involved questionnaire at the docs, I was "diagnosed" as having an anxiety dissorder. Didn't do fuck all for me mind. I asked if I coulg see a counselor, but was told that I'd be best to try and see someone at MIND as they're a charity, and it's free. It's not free for me, I pay taxes!

I scored 17. Most of it caused by my on going pain issues, rather than stress.... :-S

Irritable with friends and family? I haven't got any friends, and I don't talk to the family.

ROOG

Scored 18, mostly work related but also tied into my poor progress in my guitar playing, (joking about that last bit being particularly stressful!)

Life is fairly stressful in the ROOG household right now though, actually some of that can be attributed to my crap progress at playing.
