Hello and welcome to the Mental Health Survey carried out by Shannel Doshi.
"This survey is a part of my thesis topic, Mental Health, and I am collecting data to comprehend how situations related to mental health may or may not apply to you. This survey is an absolute casual design tool. Don't stress yourself out to answer them perfectly, it is a judgement free exercise. If you feel uncomfortable or offended at any point, please feel free to skip the prompt. Thank you so much for taking time out and helping me carry out research for my thesis project." - Shannel Doshi
Just a few points to keep in mind before you begin your survey:
Feel free to answer the prompts at your ease. No judgements.
Read the prompts and then check the box which applies best to your situation.
Last but important, the survey has got nothing to do with you as an individual, it is a tool to simply collect data about a general theme.
