CIRCULAR DEPENDENCY ERROR

I want to make a column for 4 categories, but I have measures in my code. The code is as such: 
 
IMDD CATEGORY = SWITCH(
TRUE(),
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(OUTPUT[Email Address]),OUTPUT[Ratings]) in {[INSPIRED COUNT]} ,
"INSPIRED",
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(OUTPUT[Email Address]),OUTPUT[Ratings]) in {[MOTIVATED COUNT]} ,
"MOTIVATED",
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(OUTPUT[Email Address]),OUTPUT[Ratings]) in {[DISENCHANTED COUNT]} ,
"DISENCHANTED",
"DETACHED"
)
 
Can anyone help me fix my code?

@pramita , This formula seems wrong to me not able to figure out the condition, something like this

IMDD CATEGORY = SWITCH(
TRUE(),
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(OUTPUT[Email Address]),OUTPUT[Ratings] in {"INSPIRED"}) >0 ,
"INSPIRED",
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(OUTPUT[Email Address]),OUTPUT[Ratings] in {"MOTIVATED"}) >0 ,
"MOTIVATED",
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT(OUTPUT[Email Address]),OUTPUT[Ratings] in {"DISENCHANTED"}) >0 ,
"DISENCHANTED",
"DETACHED"
)
