Scoring
	•	Add up the numbers next to the statements you most agreed with for the first five questions, then do the same for the second five. 
	•	The higher you score in the first half the more likely you are to suffer stress;
	•	The higher you score in the second half, the more stressed you feel. 
	•	Scores over 10 in either half suggest that you are either prone to experience stress or are feeling stressed at the moment.
