About the Codependency Test
This test is a free, anonymous online screening you can complete in about three minutes. It has 12 questions and is adapted from Adapted from the Spann-Fischer Codependency Scale. Your answers are scored privately in your browser — nothing is saved or linked to you — and you get an instant result framed for self-reflection rather than as a diagnosis.
Who is this test for?
Anyone who has been noticing these feelings or patterns and wants a structured, private way to reflect on them. It's a starting point for people wondering whether what they're experiencing is worth paying attention to — not a way to label or diagnose yourself. It is not suitable for anyone in crisis or in need of urgent help — if that's you, please contact your local emergency services or a crisis line right away.
How to read your results
Low (score 12–27)
You seem to balance caring for others with caring for yourself. Healthy give-and-take.
Moderate (score 28–43)
You show some codependent patterns. Practicing boundaries and noticing your own needs — not just other people's — is a good place to start.
High (score 44–60)
You show strong codependent patterns. Losing yourself in others is often learned early and can be unlearned. Therapy and boundary work can help you feel like a full person again, not just a caretaker.
Where this test comes from
This screening is adapted from Adapted from the Spann-Fischer Codependency Scale. We keep the original questions and validated scoring intact and add plain-language explanations of what each result means. You can read our full process, including how we handle sources and sensitive topics, in how we build our tests.
What to do with your result
Whatever your result, treat it as information, not a verdict. If it resonates, it can be a useful thing to bring to a doctor or mental-health professional — they can see the full picture a short questionnaire can't. Feelings and circumstances change, so retaking the test after a few weeks can also show whether things are shifting over time.
