Questions 1-3 of 14

1. You've just finished a slew of important household chores. You:

  Sit down in your favorite chair, lean back, and immediately feel all your muscles loosening up as you take a well-deserved rest.
  Sit down in your favorite chair, with occasional pangs of guilt over the various things that you could still be doing, but remain determined to take a short rest.
  Sit down in a chair, but almost immediately stand up again, realizing you left a couple of pieces of paper in the middle of the desk that really should go into the file cabinet.

2. Do you often feel irritable?

  Your friends and family frequently remark that you seem to be "on edge."
  Little things that your kids or friends do often annoy you, but you realize that you're irritable and keep your reactions under control.
  Once in a while, but only after a very long day of unusually trying work or activities.

3. Do you worry about the little events of the day, and find that you are unable to shut off your mind?

  You tend to dwell on certain things that you said or did wrong, kicking yourself for your stupidity or lack of finesse. You're constantly rerunning different scenarios in your mind for the way things could have gone.
  When you're finished with the work or errands that you needed to get done during the day, you let them go easily and enjoy the rest of the evening.
  You sometimes recall something that happened earlier and wish you had handled it differently, but such thoughts are fairly infrequent and don't disturb your moments of peace.
