Are these self-assessments a diagnosis?
No. These are screening tools for self-reflection, not diagnostic instruments. They can help you notice patterns and decide whether to reach out — but only a licensed clinician can provide a diagnosis after a thorough evaluation.
What is the difference between a screening test and a diagnostic assessment?
A screening test is a brief, standardized questionnaire that flags whether symptoms may be present and worth exploring. A diagnostic assessment is a comprehensive clinical evaluation — interviews, history, and sometimes validated instruments — conducted by a professional to determine an actual diagnosis and treatment plan.
What is the difference between OCD and OCPD?
OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder) involves unwanted, distressing intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors performed to relieve anxiety. OCPD (obsessive-compulsive personality disorder) is a personality pattern of perfectionism, control, and rigidity that the person often sees as reasonable. They can look similar but are distinct — a clinical evaluation can help tell them apart.
Can a depression test tell whether I have bipolar disorder?
Not on its own. A depression screener (like the PHQ-9) only measures depressive symptoms. Bipolar disorder also involves periods of elevated or activated mood, which a depression test doesn't capture — that's what the Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ) screens for. A full evaluation is needed to distinguish them.
Is the ASRS an ADHD diagnosis?
No. The ASRS (Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale) is a screening tool that indicates whether ADHD symptoms may be present. A diagnosis requires a comprehensive evaluation by a qualified professional, including history and ruling out other explanations.
What does my ACE score mean?
Your ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) score reflects how many categories of early-life adversity you experienced. A higher score is associated with greater risk for certain health and emotional challenges — but it is not destiny. Many people with high ACE scores live healthy, resilient lives, especially with support. It's information to bring to a conversation, not a verdict.
Are these tests free and private?
Yes. They're completely free, take only a few minutes, and require no sign-up. Your responses are for your own reflection — we don't need your identity for you to use them.
What should I do with my results?
Use them as a starting point. If your results suggest you're struggling, consider reaching out — you can schedule a free consultation and we'll help you understand your options. If you're in crisis, call or text 988 right away.
