Feeling low or anxious is common — but when it lingers, it’s hard to gauge how serious it really is. PHQ-9 and GAD-7 are the two questionnaires clinicians and researchers reach for most. They don’t label you; they turn the past two weeks into a score you can read against established severity bands, helping you tell a passing dip from a signal worth attention. You’ll see separate depression and anxiety scores with plain-language interpretation right away.
PHQ-9 for depression and GAD-7 for anxiety — the most widely used screening tools in primary care worldwide.

PHQ-9 (depression, 0–27) and GAD-7 (anxiety, 0–21) totals, shown as two distinct signals.
Your scores placed on established bands (minimal / mild / moderate / moderately severe / severe) so you know roughly where you stand.
Each band comes with a clear note on what it typically means and a reasonable next step.

A high score is a signal worth taking seriously, not a verdict. Consider talking with a doctor or mental-health professional. If you have thoughts of harming yourself, contact a crisis line right away — the result page lists options.
PHQ-9 screens for depression (mood, interest, sleep, energy, and more), while GAD-7 screens for anxiety (worry, restlessness, irritability, tension). They often go together, which is why this check includes both.
