Insomnia self-assessment

This self-assessment is for adults experiencing persistent sleep disruption who want to understand whether the pattern warrants clinical evaluation. It is not a diagnostic tool. It characterises your specific sleep disruption pattern so that if you pursue a consultation, you arrive with a clear clinical picture.

What the assessment covers

Sleep onset: how reliably you fall asleep and what prevents sleep when you cannot
Sleep maintenance: whether you wake in the night and what the experience of waking is like
Sleep quality: whether you feel rested on waking regardless of hours in bed
Sleep timing: your natural tendency toward late or early sleep and wake times
Daytime impact: how sleep disruption is affecting your cognitive performance and functioning
Associated patterns: the relationship between your sleep and anxiety, substance use, and daily demand levels

The assessment takes approximately five minutes. Your responses are private.

What your results mean

Low – sleep pattern within normal range

Your responses do not suggest clinically significant sleep disruption. Occasional poor sleep in response to current stressors typically resolves without clinical intervention.

Moderate – persistent pattern warranting evaluation

Your responses suggest a sleep disruption pattern persistent and impactful enough to warrant clinical evaluation. A psychiatric assessment identifies what is driving the disruption.

High – clinically significant sleep disorder pattern

Your responses are consistent with a clinically significant sleep disorder. A psychiatric evaluation is recommended. The underlying cause warrants identification and treatment.

After the assessment

Non-restorative sleep requires treatment of its underlying cause. A psychiatric evaluation identifies whether anxiety, ADHD, depression, or burnout is disrupting sleep architecture and produces a treatment plan addressing the underlying condition alongside specific sleep interventions.
