You scored a total of 12
You have answered this anxiety screening in such a way as to suggest that you are not likely currently suffering from an anxiety disorder. Remember that a little anxiety in normal, everyday life is to be expected and is a good thing. Nobody should be without any anxiety whatsoever, as anxiety is our body's way of telling us that we should pay closer attention to a situation, event or person in our lives (even if that person is ourselves). Scoring in this range suggests you have that normal level of anxiety but would not likely qualify for an anxiety disorder diagnosis. You should not take this as a diagnosis or recommendation for treatment in any way, though.

My thoughts
Some of these tests suggest that I may have an anxiety disorder. I don't think so. I think the anxiety I experience is natural and normal to the point where it does stop me from functioning from day to day. I feel it is important to feel anxiety because it's what makes acting on our desires much more worth it. If you do not experience anxiety then you are not human.
