- ABOUT THE TEST
The Clinical Basis For Insomnia Test
This self-screening tool is based on the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), a validated questionnaire used internationally by sleep specialists and clinicians to assess the nature and severity of insomnia symptoms.
The ISI (Insomnia Severity Index) looks at both sides of insomnia: difficulty falling or staying asleep, and how much that's affecting your daytime functioning, concentration, mood, and overall satisfaction with your sleep. Together, these give a fuller picture than "are you sleeping enough" alone. Your results offer a useful starting point for deciding whether professional support is worth exploring.
Built on Real Sleep Science
Every question comes from the ISI, the same scale sleep specialists actually use, not a generic wellness quiz.
A Starting Point, Not a Label
Your score tells you whether it's worth looking into further. Poor sleep isn't something to just push through.
A Clear Way Forward
If your results point to insomnia, HelloDoc can connect you with a psychologist or psychiatrist to explore what's actually keeping you up.

What Your Insomnia Test Score Actually Tells You
Not every restless night means something's wrong, but a pattern is worth paying attention to.
Sleep Difficulties Minimal
Your answers suggest your sleep, while imperfect, isn’t significantly disrupting your life right now.
Some Sleep Disruption
You’re likely feeling the effects of broken or delayed sleep during the day. Worth mentioning to a psychologist or your GP.
Symptoms Consistent With Insomnia
Your sleep is affecting how you function, not just how you feel at night. We’d recommend booking an assessment with one of our psychologists or psychiatrists.
Whatever Your Insomnia Test Score, Rest Is Possible
Speak with a registered psychologist or psychiatrist at HelloDoc about getting your sleep back on track.
- FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
A few honest answers before you begin the insomnia test.
Is this Insomnia test a diagnosis?
No. This is a screening tool only. Sleep difficulties can stem from many different causes; only a formal assessment with a qualified professional can confirm a diagnosis.
How long does the test take?
About 2 to 5 minutes for 20 questions. Go with your first instinct rather than overanalysing each answer; it’s usually the most accurate one.
What should I do if my insomnia test score is high?
A higher score doesn’t confirm insomnia, but persistent sleep difficulties are worth taking seriously, not pushing through indefinitely. We’d recommend booking an assessment with one of our psychologists or psychiatrists, or raising it with your GP.
