No. The Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ) is a copyrighted clinical screening tool used by professionals as part of a proper evaluation. This check-in uses original questions covering the same general symptom areas and is an informal self-reflection, not a scored clinical instrument.
A genuinely good mood usually has a clear reason, fits the situation, and doesn't come with much collateral damage. Hypomania-type patterns tend to appear as a distinct episode, a period that feels noticeably different from your usual self, often lasting several days, and often paired with less need for sleep, racing thoughts, or impulsive choices you wouldn't normally make.

The Mood Swing Check-In is a 20-question self-reflection covering six patterns sometimes described together as hypomania: elevated or expansive mood, a reduced need for sleep, inflated confidence or self-importance, racing or crowded thoughts, impulsive decisions, and a surge in energy or activity.
It's important to be honest about what this is. Clinicians assess bipolar spectrum patterns through a full clinical interview, history, and sometimes validated instruments, together with clinical judgment, not a short online quiz. This check-in can't diagnose bipolar disorder, doesn't produce a clinical score, and the result isn't a verdict. Its only job is to help you notice a pattern and decide whether talking to someone qualified makes sense.
This is a self-reflection tool, not a clinical diagnosis. If your results resonate, especially if several patterns showed up together in distinct episodes, talk to a licensed professional. If you are having thoughts of harming yourself, contact a crisis line immediately.
