Frequently asked questions
What is the GAD-7?
The GAD-7 is a validated, widely used seven-item questionnaire that screens for generalised anxiety and rates its severity. It’s a standard tool in GP surgeries and mental-health services.
What GAD-7 score indicates anxiety?
Scores of 5, 10 and 15 mark the cut-offs for mild, moderate and severe anxiety. A score of 10 or more usually prompts further assessment. It’s a guide to severity, not a diagnosis.
Could my anxiety actually be ADHD or autism?
Sometimes, yes. Anxiety frequently sits on top of — or is mistaken for — undiagnosed ADHD or autism, especially in adults who’ve masked for years. If that resonates, our ADHD and autism screens are a useful next look.
