Panic Symptoms Test
A short screening questionnaire about sudden episodes of intense fear and their impact on daily life. It takes about 3 minutes to complete.
Instructions
This test will help you check whether sudden episodes of intense fear and their impact on your daily choices deserve a closer look.
Answer seven short questions, thinking about your experiences over the past months. You can discuss the result with a psychotherapist.
Important: This test does not replace professional diagnosis. Symptoms such as a racing heart or breathlessness can also have medical causes — it is worth discussing them with a doctor as well.
