Anxiety Screening: GAD-7

Check common anxiety symptoms and use your result to prepare for a care discussion.

This is a screen, not a diagnosis. It cannot tell you which treatment you need. Health, medications, sleep, and substance use may affect your answers.

Start the screen

Before you begin

Answer for yourself. Think about the last two weeks. The questions and answer choices below keep the source wording. You can stop at any time. No clinician is watching your answers or receiving an alert.

No name, email, or phone number is needed. This check-in does not send your choices to admissions or save them in browser storage. General website analytics may still operate. Use a private device when possible. Printing may leave a copy on your device or printer. You choose whether to contact Alpine.

Need urgent help? If someone is in immediate danger, cannot be woken, has trouble breathing, has a seizure, or may have overdosed, call 911. For suicidal thoughts or emotional crisis in the U.S., call 988. Do not wait for an online result or an admissions call. These tools are not monitored.

GAD-7 questionnaire

Over the last 2 weeks, how often have you been bothered by any of the following problems?

0 of 7 questions answered.

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’s hard to sit still

6. Becoming easily annoyed or irritable

7. Feeling afraid as if something awful might happen

If you checked off any problems, how difficult have these problems made it for you to do your work, take care of things at home, or get along with other people?

The daily-life question is not part of your total score.

Interactive scoring needs JavaScript. Use the source questionnaire linked below with a care provider.

Understanding the score

GAD-7 symptom ranges: 0–4: minimal; 5–9: mild; 10–14: moderate; 15–21: severe. These describe reported symptoms. They are not treatment placement rules.

What to tell a care provider

  • When symptoms began and how they affect daily life.
  • Changes in sleep, physical health, medications, alcohol, or drug use.
  • Any safety concerns, even if your total is low.
  • What support you have tried and what you need now.

Questions about this screen

Can I take this for someone else?

No. Use a family checklist for your own observations. This screen asks about your own experience.

Can this tell me whether I need residential care?

No. A clinician needs to review your full situation before recommending a level of care.

What if I skip a question?

No total is shown until all symptom questions are answered. You can stop and discuss concerns with a care provider instead.
