Check in with yourself.
Nine questions about the last two weeks.

This check-in uses the PHQ-9, a standard questionnaire about how often some problems have bothered you. You’ll see your score and what it can mean. It is a screening, not a diagnosis.

Your answers stay in this browser. TalkDoc saves them only if you choose to keep your result.

If you are in crisis, call or text 988. In an emergency, call 911.

The questions

Over the last 2 weeks, how often have you been bothered by any of the following problems?

  1. Little interest or pleasure in doing things
  2. Feeling down, depressed, or hopeless
  3. Trouble falling or staying asleep, or sleeping too much
  4. Feeling tired or having little energy
  5. Poor appetite or overeating
  6. Feeling bad about yourself — or that you are a failure or have let yourself or your family down
  7. Trouble concentrating on things, such as reading the newspaper or watching television
  8. Moving or speaking so slowly that other people could have noticed? Or the opposite — being so fidgety or restless that you have been moving around a lot more than usual
  9. Before the next question: it asks about thoughts of hurting yourself. If that’s where you are right now, you don’t have to answer it alone. Call or text 988, any time, for any reason.
