Mental Health Self-Assessments
Would you like immediate, private feedback on your mental health and well-being? Boston University offers an online self-assessment service to help you evaluate whether you might have a mental health condition and could benefit from professional help. The anonymous screenings provide confidential computer-generated results and recommendations including resources for support and assistance. The screenings are available in Spanish, and can be translated via browser to any language. Las proyecciones también están disponibles en español.
Screenings are available for general well-being as well as the following common mental health conditions:
- Adult and Adolescent Depression
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder
- Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
- Eating Disorders
- Substance Use
- Gambling
- Bipolar Disorder
You can access the Mental Health Self-Assessments here.
Please note the Faculty & Staff Assistance Office does not manage or monitor these screenings. Nobody at BU will have access to your results or any identifying information for those who use the self-assessments.
You might also consider scheduling a Mental Health and Well-being Checkup with a counselor at the Faculty & Staff Assistance Office. Like an annual physical exam with your PCP, this is an evaluation of your mental health by a licensed professional who can help you determine whether to seek mental health treatment. Sign up for a Mental Health and Well-being Checkup.
