Please read each statement and decide how much of the time the statement describes how
you’ have been feeling during the past 2 weeks. Respond to all statements.

Hey,
I was wondering if someone could actually specify what each score indicates. (No depression, Mild depression, Severe depression etc.)

Thanks

71. Is there something else that tells me what the score means? I looked but didnt find anything? Also, someone above noted that there is one of these for anxiety. Know where i can find that? was told my anxiety is off the charts? Would like to know for myself.

Look forward to finding answers here. Thanks.

62, but on the other hand some of my symptoms are..opposite to normal if that makes sense? I don't have trouble sleeping, instead I sleep all the time. I'm not losing weight because I eat, all the time. So I'm not sure exactly how reflective it is.

Hi Mo Nanna,

Sometimes the test seems to throw people off a little bit, sometimes when depression strikes it clouds our thoughts and we just seem to be in a whirlwind. Hang in there, we are still here to support you.

It certainly doesn't feel like im in the normal range right now. I am most definitely very depressed.

It says on the page that 80 is highest possible score so that can't be correct.

This could be correct but these test are not always 100% right and only your pdoc can correctly do your diagnoses.
