Stress Self-Check – Stress Less: The R.E.A.L. Way Coaching

Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10)

The questions below ask about your feelings and thoughts during the last month. For each one, choose how often you felt or thought a certain way. There are no right or wrong answers. Go with your first instinct rather than counting.

Takes about 3 minutes. Your answers are private and are shared only with Coach Samantha Campbell. This is an educational self-check, not a diagnosis.
