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 scoreWhat it suggests
0–4Minimal anxiety
5–9Mild anxiety
10–14Moderate anxiety — worth speaking to a professional
15–21Severe 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 scoreWhat it suggests
0–4Minimal symptoms
5–9Mild symptoms
10–14Moderate symptoms — consider talking to a psychologist
15–19Moderately severe — professional support recommended
20–27Severe — please reach out for support soon

Are these anxiety and depression tests accurate?

The GAD-7 and PHQ-9 are clinically validated, research-backed questionnaires used by clinicians worldwide, with Bangla versions available. They are accurate as screening tools — they reliably flag symptoms that may need attention. They are a screening, not a diagnosis: only a licensed psychologist or psychiatrist can diagnose anxiety or depression after a full assessment.

Is the test free, private and anonymous?

Yes. Every self-check here is completely free with no sign-up. Your answers are not stored, tracked or shared — the test runs in your browser and the result is visible only to you. You can take it as many times as you like, in English or Bangla (বাংলা).

What should I do after the test?

If your score is in the mild range, simple self-help and keeping an eye on how you feel may be enough. If it is moderate to severe, it is a good idea to talk to a professional. You can read about anxiety therapy in Bangladesh or depression counselling in Dhaka, or book a session with one of our 50+ licensed psychologists — online anywhere in Bangladesh, or in person in Dhaka. Indicative session fees are ৳1,200–৳5,000, confirmed at booking — see pricing.

Other free mental health self-checks

Beyond the anxiety and depression tests, you can also check stress (PSS-4), sleep and insomnia (ISI), trauma / PTSD (PC-PTSD-5), OCD, wellbeing (WHO-5), self-esteem, loneliness and more — all free, private and instant, in the checks above.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if I have anxiety?

The only way to be sure is an assessment by a qualified professional, but a validated screening test like the GAD-7 is a good first step. It asks 7 questions about how often you have felt nervous, worried, restless or on edge over the last two weeks. A score of 10 or higher suggests it is worth speaking to a psychologist. You can take the free GAD-7 anxiety test on this page in about 2 minutes.

How do I know if I am depressed?

A free depression test like the PHQ-9 can help you recognise the signs. It asks 9 questions about low mood, loss of interest, sleep, energy and concentration over the past two weeks. Scores of 10 or more indicate moderate or higher symptoms, and a conversation with a mental health professional is 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?

The GAD-7 and PHQ-9 are clinically validated questionnaires used by clinicians worldwide, with Bangla versions available. 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?

Yes. The anxiety test (GAD-7) and depression test (PHQ-9) are available in both English and Bangla (বাংলা), so you can answer in the language you are most comfortable with. The Bangla versions use the same validated questions and scoring.

Is the mental health test free and private?

Yes — every self-check is completely free with no sign-up required. Your answers are not stored, tracked or shared; the test runs in your browser and your results are visible only to you.

What should I do if my anxiety or depression test score is high?

A high score (GAD-7 of 15+ or PHQ-9 of 15+) means your symptoms are in the moderate-to-severe range and it is a good idea to speak with a professional. 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.
