Back to Depression and Anxiety.

*4-item Patient Health Questionnaire based off the 4 questions in this module on Depression and Anxiety.
Over the last 2 weeks how often have you been 'bothered by having little interest or pleasure in doing things?', 'have you been bothered by feeling down, depressed or hopeless?'
'feeling nervous, anxious or on edge?' and 'have you been bothered by not being able to control worrying?'

PLEASE NOTE: Due to changes in the weighting methodology and other factors, results from 2021
are NOT comparable to 2010 and earlier years.

Sub-Group estimates have been suppressed because they do not meet statistical reliability standards.

^Use caution in interpreting cell sizes less than 50, % = Percentage, C.I.(95%) = Confidence Interval (at 95 percent probability level).
Percentages are weighted to population characteristics and therefore cannot be calculated exactly from the numbers in this table.
