Self-Assessment for Anxiety

Painite uses the Generalized Anxiety Disorder GAD-7 Screening.

During 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.

Please be noted that this questionnaire can be used to show your doctor how your symptoms have changed from one visit to the next. Changes of five or more points are significant. This scale is not designed to make a diagnosis of anxiety or take the place of a professional diagnosis. If you suspect that you suffer from anxiety, please consult a mental health professional as soon as possible.
