Depression Screening Questionnaires
This screening questionnaire is not designed to provide an actual diagnosis of
depression. For that, you will need a complete clinical evaluation by a
psychiatrist or other health care professional.
-
I am unable to do the things I used to do.

-
I am losing or gaining weight.
-
I get tired for no reason.
-
I am sleeping too much or too little.
-
I feel worthless and unhappy.
-
I become irritable or anxious.
-
I think about dying or killing myself.
If you answered yes to 5 or more of these questions, and you have felt this
way everyday for several weeks, there is a good chance you are suffering
from depression and should see a psychiatrist, a therapist, or other health
care professional.
If you answered yes to question 10, you should seek help immediately,
regardless of your answer to any other questions.
