Choose the questionnaire that fits your concern

Each test opens in a window on this page, asks one question at a time and shows your result as soon as you finish. You can retake any of them.

Depression symptom self-assessment

Nine questions about how often certain difficulties have bothered you over the past two weeks, covering mood, interest, sleep, energy, appetite, concentration and self-critical thoughts. You receive a total score with a description of the symptom range it falls into.

Useful if you have been feeling flat, exhausted or hopeless and want a clearer sense of how heavy the past fortnight has actually been.

The result is for self-awareness only. It is a screening reflection, not a clinical diagnosis, and only a qualified professional can assess what you are experiencing in context.

Obsessive compulsive symptom self-assessment

Eighteen questions about how much specific experiences have distressed you over the past month, across washing, checking, ordering, obsessing, hoarding and neutralising. You receive a total score and a breakdown by symptom type.

Useful if intrusive thoughts, repeated checking, rituals or compulsive behaviour are taking up time or causing distress.

The result is for self-awareness only. It is a screening reflection, not a clinical diagnosis, and only a qualified professional can assess what you are experiencing in context.

Romantic attachment style self-assessment

Thirty-six statements about how you experience closeness in romantic relationships. Your answers are scored on two dimensions, anxiety and avoidance, and placed on a chart with a description of the pattern they are most consistent with.

Useful if the same difficulties keep returning in relationships: fear of being left, difficulty relying on a partner, or withdrawing when things get close.

The result is for self-awareness only. It is a screening reflection, not a clinical diagnosis, and only a qualified professional can assess what you are experiencing in context.

Anxiety · 7 questions · ~2 min

Generalised anxiety assessment (GAD-7)

Seven questions about how often worry, nervousness, restlessness and irritability have bothered you over the last two weeks. You receive a total score from 0 to 21 and the anxiety range it falls into.

Trauma and PTSD · 20 questions · ~6 min

PTSD checklist (PCL-5, full 20 items)

Twenty questions about how much problems linked to a very stressful experience have bothered you in the past month. You receive a total score from 0 to 80 and a score for each of the four DSM-5 symptom clusters.

Relationships and couples · 16 questions · ~4 min

Couples Satisfaction Index (CSI-16)

Sixteen questions about happiness, warmth, teamwork and how your relationship feels to you. You receive a score from 0 to 81 and whether it falls above or below the research cut-off for relationship distress.

Emotion regulation · 16 questions · ~4 min

Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS-16)

Sixteen statements about what happens when you are upset. You receive a total from 16 to 80 and five subscale scores: clarity, goals, impulse control, non-acceptance and strategies.

Cyber Pornography Use Inventory (CPUI-9)

Nine statements rated from 1 to 7. You receive a total from 9 to 63 and three subscales: perceived compulsivity, access efforts and emotional distress.

Self-esteem and self-worth · 10 questions · ~2 min

Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES)

Ten statements about how you feel about yourself in general. You receive a score from 0 to 30, with reverse-scored items handled automatically.

Borderline personality · 10 questions · ~3 min

Borderline personality screening (MSI-BPD)

Ten yes-or-no questions from the McLean Screening Instrument, developed at Harvard's McLean Hospital. They cover relationships, mood, anger, impulsivity, emptiness and sense of self. A score of 7 or more is the research cut-off for further evaluation.

Narcissistic traits · 16 questions · ~4 min

Narcissistic traits test (NPI-16)

Sixteen pairs of statements. For each pair you choose the one closest to you. The score from 0 to 16 reflects traits such as wanting admiration, authority and special status. It measures traits that everyone has to some degree, not a disorder.

Personality traits · 25 questions · ~5 min

Personality traits profile (PID-5-BF, DSM-5)

The brief form of the Personality Inventory for DSM-5, published by the American Psychiatric Association. Instead of putting you in a single category, it shows how strongly five trait domains are present: negative affect, detachment, antagonism, disinhibition and psychoticism (unusual experiences). Each domain is scored from 0 to 3.

ADHD in adults · 18 questions · ~6 min

Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS-v1.1, WHO)

The internationally recognised adult ADHD questionnaire developed by the World Health Organization with Harvard researchers, based on DSM criteria. Part A (6 questions) is the screener: 4 or more answers in the marked range suggest symptoms highly consistent with adult ADHD. Part B (12 questions) adds detail. You also see separate inattention and hyperactivity or impulsivity scores.

If a result concerns you, or you would rather read something practical first, the free self-help workbooks cover several of the same areas. If you are in immediate danger, contact your local emergency number or nearest emergency department.
