Do I have depression?

Emotional Distress Scale (K6)

These questions provide a quick assessment of whether you have symptoms related to depression. However, no test is 100% accurate. No matter what your score is, you should speak to a health professional if you have any concerns about yourself or your loved ones.

The following questions ask about how you have been feeling during the past 30 days. For each question, please mark the answer that best describes how often you had this feeling.
