Personality Screen, Part A

Screening for mental health is just as important as screening for other physical health issues!  Most of us go for a physical checkup once a year, but don't think twice about a mental health checkup.  Sometimes symptoms can sneak up on us gradually over time and we don't notice them until they start causing us problems.  Other times, symptoms come on rapidly and we are overwhelmed how to handle them.  We offer several mental health screens on this website to offer you a quick way to assess how you are doing in several key areas.  This is not a substitute for a full mental health assessment nor is it intended to replace mental health or medical care.  Only an independently licensed mental health or medical professional can provide a mental health diagnosis and treatment.  However, knowledge is power and these screening tools can help you become more aware of potential symptoms and alert you to seek help.

PERSONALITY SCREEN, PART A:  Please review the following statements and see if any are true for you:

  • I have a lot of difficulty trusting others

  • I often question whether the people around me are trustworthy

  • I don't like to confide in others because they could use the information against me

  • I often misinterpret remarks by others

  • I usually hold grudges for a long time

  • I am quick to anger

  • I often question the loyalty of others

  • I consider myself to be a longer and often prefer to be alone

  • I really don't have any interest in spending time with friends or family

  • I don't really have any close friends or confidants

  • I don't really care what others think of me

  • Other people probably see me as cold and distant

  • I believe I have extrasensory abilities

  • Other people sometimes have difficulty following my train of thought

  • I often feel suspicious and paranoid

If any of these statements are true for you and are affecting your ability to fully enjoy life, parent, socialize, work, or go to school, then it may be time to set up a mental health assessment.  Please contact us today at East Coast Counseling, LLC.  You can set up an intake appointment in less than 5 minutes on our online patient portal.  You could also go old school and call for an appointment!  Either way, we look forward to helping you feel better.
