The How Toxic is my World survey below gives a Toxicity Score. This is rough measure of how toxic your daily environments are. Honestly assessing the toxicity of your lived environments is a necessary precursor to a successful healing and connection process, since toxic environments prevent healing and connection and do considerable damage to your mental, emotional, and even physical health.

To get your Toxicity Score, carefully fill out the survey as honestly as possible. The higher your score, the more toxic your environments are. If you are the subject of violence, you must act to end that violence. If you are the source of violence, you must work to reduce and eliminate that.

Note, your brain is incredibly sensitive to all forms of toxicity. Any score over ten should be considered problematic.
