Scores between 17-30

You are emotionally healthy! You are not embarrassed to express your emotion once a while and there is no question that you will get healthier emotionally because of your attitude. You seem to be a good social counselor for others.

Scores between 8-16

You seems to know the way to express yourself, but you often feel restricted to do so. You should express your emotion more often. Express yourself with tears when you are sad, anger when you are mad, and laughter when you are happy. Let go of your emotion and it will do miracles to your physical and mental health.

Scores below 7

You are really tough. You really need to release and express your emotion, at least a tiny bit. There is nothing wrong with showing others how you feel. The more you hold your natural emotion, the more damage it will be for your health. Don't advice others on social matters, cause you are not an expert in it!
