Screening for Bipolar Spectrum Disorders

Bipolar Spectrum Self-Screening is a self-reflection questionnaire designed to help you explore long-term patterns in mood, energy, activity, and emotional changes across your life.
The test focuses on experiences such as shifts between high and low mood, changes in energy, confidence, thinking speed, and emotional intensity.
This screening can help you better understand your emotional patterns and decide whether seeking professional guidance may be helpful.

Instructions
Please read each statement carefully and choose the option that best describes how you have usually been over much of your life, not just recently.
Use the following scale:
0 = Not at all
1 = Just a little
2 = Somewhat
3 = Moderately
4 = Quite a lot
5 = Very much
Answer honestly and based on your typical experiences.
There are no right or wrong answers.
This test is for self-understanding and informational purposes only and does not replace a professional mental health evaluation.
