This screening uses the GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale), developed by Drs. Robert L. Spitzer, Janet B.W. Williams, Kurt Kroenke and colleagues. It is a screening tool, not a diagnosis. Only a licensed clinician can diagnose an anxiety disorder, and a high or low score here does not replace a professional evaluation. If you are in immediate danger or thinking about hurting yourself, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or go to your nearest emergency room.

What to do with your result

A screening score is a starting point, not a verdict. If your score was in the moderate or severe range — or if anxiety is getting in the way of work, sleep, or relationships regardless of the number — the next step is a conversation with a clinician. At Forrest Behavioral Health in Illinois that starts with a short, confidential call: we listen, check your insurance for free, and tell you plainly which level of care fits, whether that is our Outpatient Program, our Intensive Outpatient Program, our Evening IOP built around work and family, or our Day Treatment Program.

Anxiety is one of the most treatable conditions we see. Learn more about mental health treatment in Illinois or explore our programs.
