My scale only measures whether or not the subject is experiencing a problem. It's always possible to get better and better, even after reaching a satisfactory level. The list is about mental health in general, not any problem I've had in specific. Most items on the list that are just de-programming myself from religious teachings rather than experiencing a problem with the item in question during my history. So as a result, there are things on here that I don't think I've ever had an innate problem with. No matter how much I might improve in those areas, I'm mostly just keeping a lookout for getting worse.
