@janemorris this is wonderful! Would you mind if I made an adaption based on this concept for a dissociation scale as well?

I've been working alongside the OT to try and come up with a functional dissociation scale that you can actually *use* while dissociated, and this format may be a winner since it's simple, has instructions, and a visual component.

my pain scale invention. it goes from 0-16. you fill it out like this:

i made this because i find pain to be a multifaceted thing that influences me in different ways. i can accomplish lots of small tasks while in pain but that doesnt mean i can move around or even think clearly. its name is the goldstein expanded pain index or gepi. you can use it if you want. or not.
