Results:
Mostly A’s: The Wellness Unicorn 🦄
Look at you—journals, yoga mats, bedtime alarms—you’ve got all the props. But do you actually feel good, or are you just checking boxes on a Pinterest board?
Mostly B’s: The Distracted Snack King/Queen 🍕
You cope with memes, snacks, and binge-worthy TV. Totally valid survival tactics. But do you feel restored, or just comfortably numb with cookie crumbs on your shirt?
Mostly C’s: The Try-Hard Juggler 🤹
You’re mixing in the “healthy” stuff, but somehow doomscrolling still eats your soul. Do you feel grounded, or are you just running on fumes while trying to balance it all?
Mostly D’s: The Zombie in Skinny Jeans 🧟♀️👖
You’ve mastered the art of “I’m fine” while secretly unraveling. Sure, you’re upright and semi-functional, but do you actually feel alive—or just caffeinated enough to pass as human?
The Truth:
It doesn’t matter if you got an A, B, C, or D.
The thing that matters is:
Do you feel good, or do you feel like crap?
If you feel like crap, it’s not enough.
“Enough” isn’t a checklist.
Don't believe everything you read in self-help books or blog posts.
Self-care is personal.
Only you are the expert on you.
