Think about the last month.
Never · Sometimes · Often · Almost always
Knowing myself
- Can you recognize what you're feeling, even when it's hard to put a name to it?
- Can you tell which things come easily to you and which are harder?
- When something affects you, can you understand why?
- Did your emotions feel overwhelming, without really understanding what was going on with you?
Managing what I feel
- Can you calm down again when something affects you?
- Can you do what you need to do even when you don't feel like it?
- When something frustrates you or makes you angry, can you stop before reacting in a way that causes you problems later?
- Did something worry you so much that it was hard to sleep, concentrate or do your usual things?
Seeing others
- Can you understand what another person thinks, even if you don't agree with them?
- Do you notice when someone close to you isn't okay, even if they don't say it?
- Do you notice when someone is being left alone or left out?
- Was it hard for you to put yourself in someone else's place when they were angry or sad?
Connecting
- When something worries you, can you find someone you trust to talk to?
- Can you work out disagreements without them turning into fights?
- Did you go through conflicts, being left out, or being treated badly by others, in a way that affected you?
- Did you feel you had no one to talk to during a hard time?
Deciding
- Before making an important decision, do you think about how it could affect you and others?
- Can you say no to something that doesn't feel right, even when others pressure you?
- Were you worried about situations with alcohol, drugs or other risks around you?
- Did you go through situations that made you feel afraid or unsafe, or that you felt you couldn't handle?
