A private self-check

Do I have anxiety?

Anxiety does not always feel like panic. Often it is quieter, a mind that will not switch off, a constant low hum of worry, trouble sleeping, tension you cannot quite put down, or the sense that you are always bracing for the next thing. This short, private self-check is a way to notice whether what you have been experiencing might be anxiety, and whether it is worth talking through.

  • 7 questions, about two minutes. No sign-up, no email.
  • Completely private. Your answers stay on this page, nothing is saved, sent, or seen by anyone.
  • A reflection, not a verdict. You'll get a sense of where things sit, and a low-pressure next step if you want one.

Based on the GAD-7, a widely used, validated screening questionnaire.

If you're in crisis or thinking about ending your life, please don't wait for a questionnaire, call or text 9-8-8 (Suicide Crisis Helpline, 24/7 across Canada), or call 911. Reaching out is the strongest thing you can do.

What your result means

However this came out, it is not a diagnosis, it is a way to see your own patterns a little more clearly. Anxiety is one of the most common and most treatable things people come to therapy for. If what you read felt familiar, that is useful to know, not something to be alarmed by.

Worth talking through with someone.

If this resonated, talking it through can help more than you might expect. The first step is a free 15-minute call, no pressure, just a conversation about what is going on.
