What can the GAD-7 tell me?
The Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) is a brief questionnaire about recent anxiety symptoms. It can help you describe what you have been experiencing and start a conversation with a clinician.
It cannot diagnose an anxiety disorder, identify every cause of anxiety, or decide which treatment you need. A lower result does not rule out an anxiety disorder or make your concerns less important.
How should I answer?
Think about the past two weeks, rather than only today. Choose how often each problem has bothered you. There are seven scored questions and an optional question about the effect on daily life.
Allow about two minutes, with no time limit. Use Back or Show all questions to review your answers. No name, email or phone number is needed to see your result.
How is the GAD-7 result interpreted?
The seven responses add up to a score from 0 to 21. Common symptom ranges are 0–4 minimal, 5–9 mild, 10–14 moderate, and 15–21 severe. These describe reported symptoms, not a confirmed diagnosis. The optional daily-life question does not change the total.
A score of 10 or higher is a common prompt for further evaluation. You can seek support at any score, especially when worry affects sleep, work, relationships or everyday activities. This tool cannot assess whether you are safe or need urgent help.
What happens in an anxiety evaluation?
A clinician asks when symptoms began, how often they occur, and how they affect daily life. They consider your health history and possible physical causes, rather than relying on a questionnaire alone.
The GAD-7 covers two weeks; a diagnosis also considers a longer history. You do not need to wait for symptoms to last a certain amount of time before asking for help.
Consider when worry is hardest to manage, how your sleep and routines have changed, and what you would like help with. Bring a list of medications and supplements, and any questions about care.
Treatment may include psychotherapy, medication, or both, depending on your needs and preferences. A screening result does not choose a treatment or mean medication is required.
The screener calculates results in this page without sending answers or scores to WordPress or GoHighLevel. It does not save them in browser storage. Reloading, leaving, or using “Clear answers” removes them. The appointment form opens separately and has its own data handling. Your score will not be attached.
Ordinary server access logs may record a page visit. We count starts, finishes and appointment-request steps without collecting answers or scores. No advertising tags, session replay or appointment form is embedded here.
