MENHERA CHECK
What does “menhera” mean?
“Menhera” is Japanese internet slang derived from “mental health.” It can describe emotional ups and downs or insecurity in relationships, but its meaning varies with context. It is not a medical diagnosis.
This quiz looks at everyday feelings and behavior through five areas. It is a self-reflection tool for exploring your tendencies, rather than a yes-or-no label for who you are.

Explore five areas
Look at your emotions, relationships, and ways of thinking from different angles.
Read your results
See your overall score, five individual scores, and explanations matched to those scores.
Five areas behind your score
Tendencies that seem similar can focus on different things. This quiz gives a separate score for each of the following five areas.
Dependency
This area looks at how much you rely on others for reassurance or decisions. The focus is on being affected by another person’s reactions, rather than simply caring about people.
In everyday life
Someone’s reaction makes you feel reassured or uncertain.
Negative Thinking
This area looks at anticipating negative outcomes or dwelling on setbacks. It focuses on what you expect to happen and how you make sense of an event.
In everyday life
A setback stays on your mind more than things that went well.
Low Self-Esteem
This area looks at difficulty recognizing your worth or strengths, and losing confidence when comparing yourself with others. Its focus is your view of yourself, rather than your view of events.
In everyday life
Comparing yourself with others makes your own strengths hard to see.
Emotional Expression
This area looks at feelings showing through your behavior and your tendency to communicate them to others. Strong expression does not necessarily mean strong internal mood swings.
In everyday life
You express your feelings strongly because you want to be understood.

Start with the overall picture
Read your overall score and its accompanying explanation. The number summarizes your answers; it does not establish whether you have a mental health condition or how severe one might be.
Look at differences between areas
Two people can have the same overall score but different individual scores. Read each explanation to see whether mood changes, a critical view of yourself, or another area stands out.
Consider your own context
Think about the situations and people you had in mind when answering. This quiz does not assign a separate personality type based on combinations of scores.
Before you begin
There are no right or wrong answers. Choose what fits your current everyday experience, rather than your ideal self. People of any gender can take the quiz.
