Screening Tool: Anxiety Problems (7 question screener [GAD-7])

This survey is designed to provide a quick assessment of whether you might have signs and symptoms of anxiety. However, no test is 100% accurate. No matter what your score is, you should seek help from a health professional if you have any concerns about yourself or your loved ones.

 

The questionnaire used here is the GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 item). Although this questionnaire is used mostly to detect one general anxiety condition, it can also help detect panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

 

In the last 2-weeks, how often have you been bothered by the following problems?

1. Feeling nervous, anxious or on edge?
2. Not being able to stop or control worrying
3. Worrying too much about different things
4. Trouble relaxing
5. Being so restless that it is hard to sit still
6. Becoming easily annoyed or irritable
7. Feeling afraid as if something awful might happen
