This quiz is inspired by the GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale), one of the most widely validated screening tools for anxiety symptoms in clinical and research settings. It measures the frequency and intensity of common anxiety symptoms including excessive worry, feeling on edge, difficulty relaxing, and physical tension.
Anxiety exists on a spectrum. Some degree of worry is a normal response to uncertainty and pressure. This quiz helps you understand where on that spectrum your current experience falls, from minimal symptoms to significant ones that warrant support. Recognising where you sit is the first step to finding appropriate tools and help.
If your results suggest moderate or significant symptoms, please know that anxiety is one of the most treatable mental health conditions. Effective approaches include CBT, ACT, mindfulness-based interventions, and in some cases medication. This quiz is a reflection tool, not a diagnosis. Please speak with a mental health professional if symptoms are affecting your daily life.
