Hey,
Do any of you know any sites I can go to online to take a quiz to see if I'm depressed? Please help... I really need to know! I'll rate everyone who gives me at least one site.
Lis answered Thursday October 21 2004, 6:27 pm: Well, most of the quizes online can't tell you much because the diagnosis of depression should be made personally and by a proffessional. there are a lot of depressed people around on different levels of depression. it's very common. and usually it can be treated through a psychologist without any pills. but if you really want to do this online, i'd suggest that you'd look for research in "Cognitive Psychology" and "behaviour psychology" as well (these two will usually come together in research on depression)because they're doing a great deal of work on the subject.

UWishUHadMyHemi answered Sunday October 17 2004, 2:38 am: if you go to www.msn.com and go to their Women section, there should be an article about "spiritual health" In that article, there are 3 quizes, and one of them is "Are you depressd?" and another is " Tell the blues from depression." I hope you want these just for fun and you really arent depressed. Do you need to talk? You can email me at dramaMama06@msn.com. Send me a return address, i would love to talk to you and help you with any problems you have. If you think your depression is serious, please seek professional help.
