Anxiety Severity Calculator
Estimate your anxiety severity using a GAD-7 inspired scale by scoring five key symptoms including worry, restlessness, and irritability. Use it to gauge whether your anxiety warrants professional attention.
Anxiety Severity Score
0 points
0-3 points across these items suggests minimal anxiety symptoms. No clinical follow-up is typically indicated at this level.
This mirrors the GAD-2/GAD-style sum of 5 items scored 0-3; on the full GAD-7 a score of 10 (out of 21) is the validated cutoff for likely generalized anxiety, so this is a screen only.
Anxiety Level Calculator
Estimate generalized anxiety disorder severity using four core GAD-7 symptoms rated by frequency. Use this to identify whether your anxiety levels warrant a conversation with a mental health professional.
Anxiety Score
0 points
A total of 0-2 indicates minimal anxiety symptoms, matching the example score of 0. Below the GAD screening threshold, no further evaluation is typically prompted.
This sums 4 items scored 0-3 (0-12), mirroring the GAD-2/GAD-7 anxiety screen whose standard cutoff for likely clinical anxiety is a score of 3 or more per two-item version.
