The DASS-21 is a standardised questionnaire used widely in Australian practice.1 It asks how you’ve been feeling over the past week and gives you three separate readings for depression, anxiety and stress.
Your results aren’t a diagnosis and they aren’t health advice — they’re a starting point for a conversation. Take them to your regular GP or specialist, or to an Updoc Partner Psychologist, and they can help you make sense of what the numbers actually mean for you.
Your results are yours. We show them to you directly and don’t keep a copy — unless you choose to book a session and share them with an Updoc Partner Psychologist for review.
Read each statement and pick how much it applied to you over the past week. There are no right answers.

Three separate readings, each scored against the standard DASS severity ranges.
This is a screening questionnaire, not a diagnosis. "Depression", "anxiety" and "stress" here are the names of the three scales — a high reading isn’t the same as having that condition. It covers one week, and can’t tell you why you feel the way you do. Only a registered practitioner can assess that with you.
It helps to bring these three scores to a GP or psychologist — they’re widely used and give a clear starting point. If you’d like to speak to someone, we can match you with an AHPRA-registered psychologist, often within the week.
With a Mental Health Treatment Plan from your GP, sessions are Medicare-rebated if you’re eligible — we process the rebate straight to your bank account.
