Freudly really helped me discover parts of my personality I hadn’t noticed before. It strengthened the areas where I needed to grow and made me feel more grounded and confident in the parts that already worked well.
Emma C., US
I wanted to understand how serious my ADHD is, and now I finally do. I also realized I need to work on my self-esteem. It has been low for a long time, and that makes daily life harder than it should be.
Mateo R., CA
Reading each question felt like someone really understood me. Even though I’ve already dealt with much of this, reflecting still helped me learn something new about myself.
Caroline F., US

Great platform — the insights were genuinely meaningful!

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Shihan's Anxiety Self-Assessment Scale, SPRAS Test

Sheehan Anxiety Self-Rating Scale (SPRAS) Test

This self-report measure is used to screen for the presence and severity of anxiety symptoms in clinical and outpatient settings. The Sheehan Anxiety Self-Rating Scale (SPRAS) provides a brief, structured format for rating how much common anxiety-related symptoms are experienced and how much they interfere with daily functioning.

Developed by Sheehan, D., it consists of 35 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Scores can support initial case identification and help guide decisions about the need for further diagnostic evaluation.

In addition to baseline screening, the Sheehan Anxiety Self-Rating Scale (SPRAS) may be used for symptom monitoring over time, such as tracking changes during treatment or periods of increased stress. Results should be interpreted in clinical context and are not a stand-alone diagnosis.
