Stress Assessment

Six areas, three questions each. There are no scores here — only your own words. Tap a section to open it, and save each answer as you write it.

Pick the emotion that feels most present right now

If more than one fits, pick the strongest first. You can always come back and change it.

1. When stress hits, what is the first emotion you notice — and how fast does it arrive?

2. Which emotion do you find hardest to let others see?

3. After a hard conversation, how long does the feeling stay with you?

1. Where in your body do you feel stress first (jaw, chest, stomach, shoulders)?

2. What changes in your sleep, appetite, or breathing when you're overwhelmed?

3. What physical warning sign do you usually ignore?

1. What sentence repeats in your head on a stressful day?

2. Do you tend to catastrophize, self-blame, or go blank? Describe it.

3. What would a kinder version of that thought sound like?

1. Which situations reliably raise your stress (conflict, deadlines, noise, being late)?

2. Which person or setting drains you fastest, and why?

3. What time of day or week is hardest for you?

1. When is your energy highest, and when does it crash?

2. What activity gives you energy back rather than taking it?

3. How do you tell tiredness apart from emotional depletion?

1. What is your automatic coping move — scroll, snack, clean, isolate, overwork?

2. Which coping habit helps you, and which one costs you later?

3. Who or what actually helps you settle down?
