The Well Dosed Pattern Assessment
Well Dosed

You are not your pattern.

You’re living from patterns you learned — through what you experienced, absorbed, and repeated. Some protected you. Others simply became familiar. This assessment helps you see which ones may still be shaping how you respond.

This assessment measures how often certain behaviours tend to happen. It cannot tell you where a pattern came from or what it has cost — those parts are yours. It is a reflection tool, not a mental health assessment, and nothing here is a diagnosis.

Before you start

There are no right answers here, and nothing on this list is a flaw.

Every one of these is something people do — often for very good reasons. Some will be constant for you. Most will be occasional. A few won't be you at all.

Answer for how you generally are, across the past year or two — not just this week, and not how you'd like to be.

The closer you get to what's true, the more useful this is.

Almost there

Current load.

Those questions were about how you generally are. These four are about right now — the past two weeks, not your life.

Your patterns are fairly steady. This part isn't. It's the piece that moves.

Where should we send this?

We'll email you a copy so you can come back to it — and a reminder in eight weeks, if you want to see what's moved.

Your results are yours either way. Nothing is held back.

Your result

Here is the shape of what showed up.

All six of these show up in most people to some degree. What differs is how often. This reflects what you reported, not a judgement about who you are.

Come back in eight weeks

Your shape is fairly steady. What you're carrying isn't. Take this again in two months and see what's moved.

Not because anything here promises to change it — but because it's the one number worth watching.

This is a reflection tool, not a mental health assessment. Nothing here is a diagnosis, and it can't tell you about your history or your health.

If anything here is landing heavily — or if you're struggling in a way that a questionnaire can't hold — talking to a therapist, a doctor, or a crisis line is a reasonable and ordinary thing to do. In the US you can call or text 988 at any hour. If you're using alcohol or anything else to get through the evenings more often than you'd like, that's worth saying out loud to someone too.
