Screening Tool: Anxiety Disorders (2-question screener [GAD-2])

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-2 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder-2 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.

 

Over the past two 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
