Daily Impact
When life feels heavy or uncertain, work, relationships, and social life can all be affected. The WSAS helps us understand how much your current difficulties are impacting different areas of daily living.
There’s no score to aim for — the goal is simply awareness. Reflect on each area and rate how much it’s been affected, or we can go through it together in session..
| 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
| Not at all | Slightly | Definitely | Markedly | Severely |
| Look at each section below and determine on the scale above how much your problem impairs your ability to carry out the activity. | Your Score | |
