Can I use the Self-Love Quiz to determine if I have a mental illness?

Self-Love Quiz serves as an aid to help you identify your levels of self-love and areas that might need attention. However, it is not designed to diagnose or cure any psychological conditions. If you are experiencing mental health issues or suspect you may have a condition, it is crucial to seek professional medical advice.

Can I use Self-Love Quiz to assess others?

Yes, you can answer each question by how you think the test taker would behave. However, if you are unsure about the person’s answer to a certain question, sometimes you may need to make subjective speculation. The more questions you have to guess, the less accurate and reliable the results are. In addition, the so-called "behavior" will come from your knowledge of the person. In which case, the accuracy is somewhat compromised, and not as accurate when compared to testing yourself.

Explanation of each dimension of self-love

Self-Acceptance

Self-Acceptance is the foundation of self-love. It involves acknowledging and embracing all aspects of oneself, including strengths, weaknesses, and past mistakes. A high level of self-acceptance means you are comfortable in your skin, do not seek validation from others, and understand that your self-worth is not contingent on external accomplishments or approval. It also means that you treat yourself with kindness and forgiveness, rather than harsh judgment. This dimension assesses to what extent you are at peace with who you are and how you navigate life’s journey.

Compassionate Self-Talk

This dimension evaluates the nature of your internal dialogue. Everyone has an inner voice that comments on their actions and experiences. Compassionate Self-Talk is the practice of speaking to yourself with kindness, understanding, and support, much like you would speak to a dear friend. When this dimension is well-developed, you are likely to be resilient in the face of failure and less prone to anxiety and depression. It’s about replacing critical or negative self-talk with a nurturing, affirming, and forgiving internal narrative.

Personal Growth Orientation

Personal Growth Orientation looks at your commitment to self-improvement and learning. It is not merely about acquiring new skills or knowledge, but also about expanding self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness. This dimension measures your proactive efforts to evolve, challenge yourself, and step out of your comfort zone for personal development. It also reflects your ability to learn from experiences and to see growth opportunities even in adversities.

Healthy Boundaries

Healthy Boundaries are essential to self-love as they protect your energy, space, and well-being. This dimension gauges your ability to say 'no' when needed, to ask for space, and to recognize when others' demands are unreasonable or detrimental to your health. It also covers your capacity to prioritize your needs and to make decisions based on what is best for you, rather than constantly sacrificing your happiness for others.

Self-Care Practices

Self-Care Practices involve the actions you take to look after your physical, emotional, and mental health. This dimension assesses the regularity and quality of routines you have in place to nurture yourself. It examines how you balance work and relaxation, the attention you give to your nutrition, exercise, sleep, and the activities you engage in for pleasure and relaxation. Self-care is an act of self-love because it involves treating yourself as a valuable being whose needs are important.

Purpose and Fulfillment

This dimension measures the extent to which you feel your life has meaning and you are engaged in fulfilling activities. Purpose and Fulfillment come from pursuing passions, contributing to something greater than oneself, and having goals that align with your values. High scores in this area suggest that you derive a significant amount of self-esteem and satisfaction from your life’s direction and that you love yourself enough to pursue what genuinely makes you feel alive and connected to the world.
