PTSD Test (PCL-5)

Are past events still affecting you now?

Based on: Adapted from the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5).

This asks about how a stressful or traumatic experience has affected you in the past month. Take it gently, and stop if it feels like too much. Nothing you enter is saved or linked to you.

This is a screening tool, not a diagnosis. Results are for self-reflection only. Only a licensed professional can diagnose a condition.

01Repeated, disturbing memories of a stressful experience.
02Repeated, disturbing dreams of the experience.
03Suddenly feeling or acting as if the experience were happening again (a flashback).
04Feeling very upset when something reminded you of it.
05Strong physical reactions when reminded (heart pounding, sweating, trouble breathing).
06Avoiding memories, thoughts, or feelings related to the experience.
07Avoiding external reminders — people, places, or situations.
08Trouble remembering important parts of the experience.
09Feeling distant or cut off from other people.
10Feeling emotionally numb or unable to have positive feelings.
11Being "superalert," watchful, or on guard.
