PHQ-9 Depression Test

The PHQ-9 is a brief, internationally validated questionnaire that helps identify the presence and severity of depressive symptoms. Answer honestly — there are no right or wrong answers.

This questionnaire is a screening tool and does not replace a professional evaluation. The results do not constitute a clinical diagnosis. Only a mental health professional can provide a diagnosis. If you are concerned about your mental health, don't hesitate to seek help.
