Important Considerations
This Depression Test is an assessment tool, not a diagnostic instrument. It is crucial to understand that this app cannot replace professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you have concerns about your mental health, always consult with a qualified healthcare provider. The results from this self-test should be used as a guide to encourage further discussion with a doctor or therapist, and not as a definitive conclusion about your condition.
