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.

Feeling nervous, anxious, or on edge

Not being able to stop or control worrying

Worrying too much about different things

Being so restless that it's hard to sit still

Becoming easily annoyed or irritable

Anxiety Severity Score

MinimalMildModerateMarked symptoms

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.
