Is your cortisol
working for or against you?

Cortisol is the hormone that gets you out of bed and the one that keeps you awake at two in the morning. Fifteen questions across five dimensions, about four minutes.

This does not measure cortisol. It scores what you tell it about your week, in the pattern a dysregulated stress response tends to leave.

Morning Activation

How do you usually feel within the first hour of waking?

Disclaimer

This is information, not medical advice, and it is not a measurement of cortisol — that needs a blood, saliva or urine test. It cannot see thyroid trouble, Cushing’s or Addison’s, all of which look like this from the outside. If you suspect a hormonal condition, that is a doctor and a laboratory rather than a questionnaire. Minimum Stress is not a medical provider.
