What is the ASRS ADHD screening test?

Short answer
The Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS) is a validated screening questionnaire—not a diagnosis. It helps clinicians decide whether a full evaluation is warranted. Siya Health offers a free screening; positive screens should lead to clinician review, not self-treatment.

Detailed answer
Screeners cannot rule out anxiety, sleep disorders, or medical mimics. ASRS supports clinical evaluation but does not independently establish a diagnosis.
Do symptoms impair work, relationships, or daily tasks most weeks?
Yes → Consider structured ADHD evaluation—not online quizzes alone.
No → Screen sleep, mood, and thyroid; revisit if worsening.
Urgent safety concerns (suicidal thoughts, chest pain, severe confusion)?
Yes → Seek emergency care now—not telehealth intake.
