About This Anxiety Quiz (GAD7 Test)
This short anxiety self-assessment is based on the GAD-7 (Generalised Anxiety Disorder-7), a clinically validated tool used by GPs and mental health professionals to screen for anxiety symptoms. It’s designed to help you spot patterns, understand your mental health, and explore whether you may benefit from extra support.
Although this isn’t a formal diagnosis, it can be a really helpful first step if you’ve been feeling tense, overwhelmed, or out of sorts lately.
Taking our online anxiety test can help you:
Recognise signs of generalised anxiety
Understand how anxiety can affect your thoughts, emotions, and body
Decide whether speaking to a therapist or mental health practitioner might be useful
If your score was moderate or high, know that you're not alone — and that effective support is available.
Book your free consultation with a friendly mental health practitioner today to explore the most suitable next step for you — there’s no pressure and no obligation to commit to anything.
FAQ’s
-
Your score will fall into one of several ranges that can help you understand the level of anxiety you may be experiencing:
Minimal anxiety – Occasional worry is part of life, and your current symptoms may not be cause for concern.
Mild anxiety – You might be feeling more anxious than usual, and it could be helpful to explore some early support strategies.
Moderate anxiety – Anxiety may be affecting your thoughts, feelings, and daily life. Speaking with a professional could help you understand what’s going on and how to manage it.
Severe anxiety – Your symptoms may be intense or persistent, and support from a qualified mental health professional is highly recommended.
Please remember: This test is a tool for self-reflection — not a diagnosis. It’s a starting point to help you make sense of your experience and consider what support might be helpful.
