The GAD-7 is a 7-item anxiety scale initially developed to diagnose generalized anxiety disorder (hence its name, the GAD-7). This quiz has also proved to be useful as a screener for panic disorder, social anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

The score can range from 0 to 21. Scores above 5, 10, or 15 represent mild, moderate, or severe anxiety, respectively. This quiz cannot make a medical diagnosis, but if you score 15 or higher, medical attention might be worthwhile.
