Symptom screener — not a diagnosis

Adult ADHD symptom screener

Answer how often each statement fits you in the last six months. Scores show possibility, not certainty — then we suggest a sensible next step with a psychologist if needed.

Answer all six items to see a result.

This is an original educational symptom screener for adults — not the official WHO ASRS, not a medical diagnosis, and not a substitute for clinical assessment. Scores show possibility, not certainty. In crisis in Nepal, call TUTH Helpline 1166.

Free online quizzes often overclaim. This page is deliberately softer: possibility bands, clear limits, and a path to human care — not a label from a website.

How to use this screener

  • Answer how often each statement fits you over about the last six months
  • See a lower / mixed / higher possibility band — not a pass/fail diagnosis
  • If the band is higher or life is still hard, check fit with a clinician next
  • Your answers stay in your browser — we do not store screener scores on our servers

Common questions

Is this an official ASRS ADHD test?
No. This is an original educational checklist inspired by common adult ADHD domains. It is not the WHO Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale and does not produce a clinical diagnosis.
If I score high, do I have ADHD?
No. A higher band means your answers are above this form’s screening threshold and may indicate ADHD-like patterns. Only a qualified clinician can assess ADHD after a proper history.
If I score low, am I fine?
Not necessarily. Low scores mean ADHD is less likely from these answers alone. Screeners miss some people. If work, study, or relationships still struggle, seek help anyway.
What should I do after the screener?
Read the result band, then decide: clarity call, see availability for adult ADHD therapy, or keep reading guides. Continue only if the approach fits you.
Is this an emergency tool?
No. If you are in crisis in Nepal, call TUTH Helpline 1166. Use local emergency services wherever you are.
