Comprehensive Anxiety Test

"You have a fairly high level of existential anxiety, which can be best explained as a sense of dissatisfaction with life and a feeling that things are somehow beyond your realm of control. Overall, people with such an outlook often feel helpless, as though nothing is predictable or stable, and wonder why they are not as happy as other people appear to be. They may sometimes feel out of control, afraid of the future or even question whether life has any meaning. Your flashes of existential anxiety could send you on a downward spiral if you don’t get a grip on them. Adopting a more positive outlook could have a profound effect on the way you view the world, your role in it, and your level of anxiety."

It doesn't have much to do with my life; I'm happy with most of it (not school, but of course life isn't perfect, and I wouldn't want it to be so). It's just how I am, I guess.

97.

Do I win a prize for the highest score?

I scored 91

33 (I'm really surprises as I was dx with a an anxiety disorder several years ago)
Your score on this scale was low, indicating that you are generally satisfied with life and are able to handle the fact that there are things beyond your control. You likely feel pretty good about yourself on the whole, and generally don't experience a debilitating amount of worry over the future. Individuals with this profile are typically able to find some kind of meaning in their lives, which alleviates the occasional feeling of futility. Although you have flashes of existential anxiety from time to time, you are able to get a grip on them before they send you on a downward spiral. This positive outlook certainly has a profound effect on the way you view the world and your role in it.
