What does the anxiety test (GAD-7) measure?
The GAD-7 is a free, 7-question anxiety test that screens for generalised anxiety. It asks how often, over the last two weeks, you have felt nervous or on edge, been unable to stop worrying, felt restless, or become easily irritated. Your answers produce a score from 0 to 21, the higher the score, the more anxiety symptoms you may be experiencing.
| GAD-7 score | What it suggests |
|---|---|
| 0–4 | Minimal anxiety |
| 5–9 | Mild anxiety |
| 10–14 | Moderate anxiety, worth speaking to a professional |
| 15–21 | Severe anxiety, professional support recommended |
What does the depression test (PHQ-9) measure?
The PHQ-9 is a free, 9-question depression test. It asks about low mood, loss of interest, sleep, energy, appetite, concentration and related symptoms over the last two weeks, giving a score from 0 to 27.
| PHQ-9 score | What it suggests |
|---|---|
| 0–4 | Minimal symptoms |
| 5–9 | Mild symptoms |
| 10–14 | Moderate symptoms, consider talking to a psychologist |
| 15–19 | Moderately severe, professional support recommended |

The test gives you an instant, private score, it is a screening guide, not a diagnosis.
Are these online anxiety and depression tests accurate?

They are accurate as screening tools but cannot give a clinical diagnosis, only a licensed psychologist or psychiatrist can diagnose anxiety or depression after a full assessment.
Can I take the anxiety and depression test in Bangla?

In Bangladesh you can book an online or in-person session with one of Chum’s 50+ licensed psychologists. If you are in crisis or thinking of harming yourself, contact a local emergency helpline immediately.
What is the difference between an anxiety test and a depression test?
The anxiety test (GAD-7) screens for generalised anxiety, worry, restlessness and tension. The depression test (PHQ-9) screens for low mood, loss of interest and related symptoms. Anxiety and depression often occur together, so many people take both; each takes only a couple of minutes here.
Can a free online test diagnose anxiety or depression?
No. The GAD-7 and PHQ-9 are screening tools, not diagnostic instruments. They highlight whether your symptoms are mild, moderate or severe and whether professional support may help, but a clinical diagnosis can only be made by a licensed mental health professional after a proper evaluation.
