The overall result
Every report lands in one of three bands, and each band comes with a suggested next step.
| Result | What it suggests | Next step |
|---|---|---|
| Healthy | Stress within a healthy range | A detailed report with preventive tips and self-care recommendations. |
| Support | Stress that would benefit from professional support | Psychologist sessions through Dr. Vohra's Emotional Wellness Hub. |
| Clinical | Signs that need clinical evaluation | A psychiatrist and a psychologist together, through Dr. Vohra's Emotional Wellness Hub. |
Reading the five dimensions
The dimensions (Human Nature, Life Circumstances, Clinical Symptoms, Domestic Life, Professional Life) tell you where to look. Strain that sits mostly in Professional Life, with the rest calm, usually points to workload, boundaries or a difficult team rather than a deeper problem. Strain in Domestic Life suggests that conversations at home, or couple and family work, may help more than anything at the office.
Clinical Symptoms deserves the most attention. Changes in sleep, appetite, energy and mood are what a clinician acts on, and they can matter even when the other dimensions look fine. Human Nature reflects your usual way of meeting pressure; it is not a fault, but it is useful material for therapy. Life Circumstances reflects events, some of which will pass on their own.
If your result is in the healthy range
Good news, and worth keeping. Use the preventive tips in the report, notice what is already working for you (sleep, movement, people you can talk to) and protect it. Take the Stressometer again after a few months or after a big change such as a new job, a move, a loss or exams.
If the report suggests a psychologist
This means stress is affecting you enough that a few structured conversations would help. A psychologist works with you on the patterns behind the stress, using CBT techniques and coping strategies you can practise between sessions. In India, sessions are arranged through Dr. Vohra's Emotional Wellness Hub, by video, voice or chat, or in person in New Delhi. Abroad, take the report to a local psychologist, or ask about online counselling where the rules where you live allow it.
If the report suggests clinical evaluation
This does not mean something is badly wrong, and it does not mean you will be put on medicine. It means a psychiatrist should take a proper look, because some of your answers are the kind a doctor needs to assess. The psychiatrist evaluates, explains what is going on, and plans treatment, usually with a psychologist alongside.
If any of your answers were about harming yourself or not wanting to live, please do not wait for an appointment. In India call Tele-MANAS on 14416 or 112.
Taking it again and sharing it
One index is a snapshot; two or three show a direction. Retaking the Stressometer after therapy or a change in circumstances shows whether things are moving. You can take your report to any clinician you choose, and it gives them a quick, structured picture before the first conversation.
Frequently asked questions
- Does a result that needs clinical evaluation mean I have a mental illness?
- No. It means some answers deserve a doctor's assessment. Only a clinician can tell you whether there is a condition, and many people who get this result simply need support through a hard period.
- How often should I retake the Stressometer?
- There is no fixed rule. Every few months is sensible, and again after any major change or after a course of therapy, so you can compare.
- What should I do in an emergency?
- NWNT is not an emergency service. In India, call Tele-MANAS on 14416 (free, round the clock) or 112. Outside India, call your local emergency number straight away.
