Screeners identify traits of disorders and offer a quick, no-cost preliminary assessment. A useful first step in mental health, these evaluations are subjective and do not confirm or deny a diagnosis. An accurate, thorough diagnosis can only be made after a personal evaluation by your doctor. Instead, results may help guide individuals who are struggling towards professional consultation, if appropriate.
