Interactive Tool: Are You Depressed? - What does your score mean?

The more symptoms of depression you have, the higher your score will be. Your score will appear as one of the following:

You are unlikely to have depression.
You may have mild to moderate depression.
You may have moderate to severe depression.
You may have severe depression.

As with all screening tools, this tool gives you a place to start. Keep in mind that a higher score does not necessarily mean that you have depression. Also, a lower score does not always mean you are depression-free. This tool can help you examine your feelings and think about whether your symptoms might be symptoms of depression. But using this tool is not a substitute for a thorough evaluation by your doctor. If you are concerned about any of your symptoms, seek medical help.
