Both calculators run independently β change the inputs on either side to compare results.
Anxiety Severity Assessment Calculator
Quantifies your anxiety severity by weighing how often, how intensely, and how long episodes last, plus their effect on daily life. Use it to track changes over time or prepare for a mental health appointment.
Depression Severity Assessment Calculator
Calculates a PHQ-5 style depression severity score by summing ratings for mood, sleep, energy, appetite, and concentration. Use it as a quick self-screen to track symptoms week-to-week or prepare for a GP appointment.
Depression Severity Score
0 points
0-2 across these five items suggests minimal depressive symptoms this period. On the full PHQ-9 a total under 5 is the 'minimal' band; persistent symptoms still warrant a clinician's input.
These five items mirror the PHQ-style 0-3 scoring; on the validated PHQ-9 (max 27) cutoffs are 5/10/15/20, but this 5-item version maxes at 15, so bands are scaled proportionally and remain a screen, not a diagnosis.
