Anxiety can show up in lots of ways—racing thoughts, constant worry, tension in your body, trouble sleeping, or feeling on edge for no obvious reason. This short anxiety test is designed to help you understand not only whether anxiety may be affecting you, but also what’s driving it.
As well as giving you a score, the results break anxiety down into the areas it most commonly comes from:
- Thought patterns (overthinking, “what if” thinking, catastrophising)
- Physical symptoms (tight chest, stomach knots, restlessness, fatigue)
- Behavioural patterns (avoidance, reassurance-seeking, checking, procrastination)
You’ll get personalised feedback on what your answers suggest is most influencing your anxiety right now, plus a clear next step—Retrain Your Brain that matches your result.
This is an educational self-check, not a diagnosis. If your anxiety feels overwhelming or you’re struggling to cope, it may help to speak with a qualified professional.
