I'm conducting a survey to figure out the most common mental state. Please say which one best descrbes you:
Hell: You are always hostile and angry. Your first response is to attack something that threatens you. Or you are filled with a cold pride that puts up a wall between you and other people. Anger
Preta: You always desire to possess something, it can be spiritual or physical, but once you have it you forget about it in pursuit of something else. Greed
Animal: You are very methodical and like to maintain the status quo. If anything threatens to disrupt your routine you become extremely hostile and defensive. Serious
Human: You love to explore new things. Life is a game of "He who has the best toys wins", and you constantly try o improve yourself. Passion
Asura: You are a very intelligent, calculating person. You don't trust someone unless the prove they are trustworthy. You like to win, life is a game and you can't lose. Beneficial Paranoia

Deva: obsessed with the self, you believe you are really something special and feel a need to preserve yourself. An intoxication with the ego. Pride

To those who believe these are only negative characteristics that is because Buddhists believe these are the psyches of the unenlightened, and the enlightened are flawless. According to buddhist teachings the ego is not beneficial and is characteristically flawed, so its state cannot be "good".

These are also horribly paraphrased, I did not have enough room for the pages of definition they require.

The words at the end are the emotion that causes the state, not the one that describes it.
