Moody · type
The Still Water
Your mood moves, and it moves for a reason, and it comes back — what other people call moody is, for you, ordinary weather.
What this type is
Your answers over the last two weeks sit in the range most adults report: a mood that shifts with the day, that takes a real event to move, and that settles again without much help. None of the three facets is running the fortnight. That is not a claim that you are never in a mood — everyone is — but it is a reasonable reading that, right now, your mood is following your life rather than leading it.
What this gives you is a baseline. Moodiness is weather, and weather changes with sleep, load, hormones, and what is happening in your life. If a month arrives where the swings get wider or the lows start to stay, you will have a picture of what still looked like, and you will know the change is a change.
Where the reading can mislead is in averaging. A still overall band can sit on top of one facet that is high — a mood that barely moves but stays down for days is a real pattern, and a mood that spikes at nothing and is gone in an hour is another. The bars above show it where the band does not. And if you scored still and the people who live with you would laugh at that, believe them a little: this is two weeks of your own report, and other people see the outside.
What people with this result notice
Four of the eight notes the test writes for this type; the rest come with your own result.
📊 Read the bars, not the band
A still overall band can hide one facet that is high. A mood that barely moves but stays down for days is a real pattern with its own fixes. Look at which bar is highest before you conclude anything from the summary.
📌 Keep this as your baseline
Moodiness moves with sleep, load and life. This is your picture of still. If a month arrives where the swings widen or the lows start to stay, you will know it is a change rather than who you are.
What produces this result
Every answer feeds one overall score, and that score falls into one of 3 bands. The bands are levels of the same thing, not different kinds of person.

This is a screening-style questionnaire, not a diagnosis. A high score is a reason to talk to someone who can assess properly.
Is this you?
The Moody test is 15 questions and takes about 3 minutes. Your result carries your own numbers, not just the name.

The Changing WeatherNot a storm, not still — a mood that moves more than it needs to, and that the people close to you have learned to read before you speak.
The Spring TideWide swings, a low threshold, and moods that stay — the fortnight has been shaped by how you felt in it, and that is worth talking to someone about.
