Mental Health Screening

A simple and confidential way to understand how you have been feeling

Adolescence can be emotionally and physically challenging. Feeling sad, anxious, stressed, or experiencing physical discomfort is common, but it can be hard to understand what it means.

This section offers short mental health screening tools to help adolescents reflect on their emotional and physical well-being and decide whether support may be helpful.

Start a Screening

This screening is for adolescents who have been experiencing overwhelming sadness, low mood, or a loss of interest in activities they usually enjoy. It focuses on key emotional and behavioral experiences such as feeling down or irritable, low motivation, tiredness, difficulty concentrating, changes in sleep or appetite, and feeling negative about oneself.

This screening is for adolescents who feel persistently worried, tense, or on edge, even when there is no clear reason. It looks at common anxiety related experiences such as excessive worrying, difficulty controlling worry, restlessness, physical tension, irritability, trouble relaxing, and feeling that something bad might happen.

This screening is for adolescents who frequently experience physical discomfort that may be connected to stress or emotional strain. It focuses on symptoms such as headaches, stomach pain, chest discomfort, dizziness, fatigue, low energy, sleep difficulties, nausea, or bowel discomfort.

About These Mental Health Screenings

The screenings used on this website are based on well known, research informed measures commonly used in healthcare and educational settings. They are designed to be brief and accessible, offering a snapshot of recent experiences rather than a full assessment.

Because of this, results should always be interpreted with care and context.

Online screening can help you pause and reflect on how you have been feeling emotionally or physically. It can make patterns more visible and help you decide whether learning coping strategies, talking to someone you trust, or seeking professional support might be useful.

For many adolescents, screening is a first step toward understanding their experiences.

Screening results describe levels of experiences, not conditions or diagnoses. They are based on established guidelines that show how often or how strongly certain symptoms are reported.

Results are best understood as a starting point for reflection and conversation, especially if symptoms feel distressing or begin to interfere with daily life.
