What this test adds

The four scores show different parts of anxiety-related experiences, including what was avoided or changed; use them to choose examples for a conversation with a clinician.

A small next step

Go back over last month in your own calendar and mark anything that was moved, dropped or handed to somebody else, and what you did instead. A page of dated examples is what an appointment can use, and it is the one part of this that leaves a trace outside your own memory.

Questions people ask

Can this tell me whether I have an anxiety disorder?

No; a clinician can assess anxiety using your history and other relevant information.

How is this different from the Low Mood and Worry self-check?

That one asks about a fortnight taken as a whole, including interest, sleep, and worry that will not switch off across ordinary days. This one asks about the minutes around a particular occasion, and about one worry and how far it travels.

Everything came out quiet. Does that mean nothing is wrong?

A quiet result reflects the situations you answered about. If anxiety or its effects concern you, discuss your experience with a clinician.

Are my answers stored or sent anywhere?

No. The result is calculated in this browser tab. Answers and result text are never sent as analytics properties and are never written to browser storage.
