PHQ-9 Depression Assessment Tool

The PHQ-9 is a widely used, evidence-based questionnaire that evaluates the severity of depressive symptoms and their impact on daily functioning. It helps users understand symptom patterns, monitor changes over time, and determine when professional support may be needed. This tool supports both self-awareness and clinical decision-making.

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 or watching television
8. Moving or speaking so slowly that other people could have noticed, or the opposite — being fidgety or restless
9. Thoughts that you would be better off dead, or of hurting yourself in some way
