About Our Assessments

This is important—please read carefully:

• Assessments are not diagnoses. Our self-assessments are educational tools designed to help you understand yourself better. They cannot and do not provide medical or psychological diagnoses.
• Results are for self-reflection only. Assessment results should be used as a starting point for self-understanding or conversation with healthcare providers, not as definitive conclusions.
• Seek professional help when needed. If you're struggling with mental health, please reach out to a qualified healthcare provider. Our assessments are not a substitute for professional evaluation.
• No clinical validation claims. While our assessments are based on research, they have not been clinically validated for diagnostic purposes.

Health & Safety Disclaimer

If you're in crisis: Please contact emergency services (911 in the US), the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, or go to your nearest emergency room. You can also text HOME to 741741 to reach a crisis counselor.
