# Do I have anxiety?

If that question keeps circling back, you're not alone. And you don't have to sit with the not-knowing. A few minutes and a validated screening tool can give you a clearer picture of what's going on, plus an actual next step.

Everyone feels worried sometimes. Anxiety becomes a disorder when it sticks around, gets louder than the situation calls for, or starts crowding out your sleep, focus, or relationships. Racing thoughts, a body that won't relax, dread that doesn't match the moment. These are signals worth listening to, not something to push through.

## Not sure if this is anxiety?

Take the free GAD-7 screening, one of the most widely used clinical tools for identifying anxiety symptoms.

7 questions  2-3 minutes  Free  Clinically reviewed 

-   This is a screening tool, not a diagnosis. 
-   Your results come with personalized recommendations. 

Take the GAD-7 

If you're in crisis, contact the NCMH Crisis Hotline at **1553** or go to your nearest ER right away. 

## Talk to someone who treats anxiety every day

All Saya psychologists are PRC-licensed (RPsy) and use evidence-based approaches like CBT and ACT for anxiety.
