Bipolar Disorder (MDQ)
  • What this measures
    A brief screen for lifetime bipolar spectrum symptoms — periods of elevated mood, increased activity, and other changes in energy or behavior.
  • How we calculated your result
    We total your “Yes” answers across 13 core symptom questions, add the timing and impact items, and convert that to a Health % so higher means healthier.
  • What your score means
    0–6: Typically no follow-up needed.
    7–13: Positive screen → consider the full MDQ or a clinical evaluation for bipolar spectrum conditions.
  • Why we use this method
    The Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ) is a validated, quick screening tool used worldwide to detect possible bipolar I and II symptoms in general and clinical populations.
  • What’s next
    If your score was 7 or higher, you’ll find the full MDQ below (under Suggested Assessments) to explore symptom patterns, and you may wish to discuss results with a clinician to distinguish bipolar from unipolar depression or ADHD.
