Do I have
post-traumatic stress disorder?

Experiences that overwhelm or frighten us can sometimes have lasting emotional effects. If you’ve noticed ongoing distress, anxiety, or changes in how you think or feel, PTSD could be involved. This questionnaire uses the PCL-5 assessment to help you reflect on your symptoms and consider whether support might help.

What people are saying about the Human app

This is an ESSENTIAL app for me in my medical journey. It is amazingly flexible, the support is amazing, they want you to tell them what is missing and then make it happen... I really don't know what I would do without it. Thank you so much for creating this app.

Andrea Falcigno, USA

The app is great I use it to remind me of all my meds and other things I need to do to stay healthy. I would recommend this app to anyone who struggles with keeping track of meds and other daily tasks

Pixi Librarian, USA

Extremely helpful. wide variety of symptoms, both psychological and physical! super easy to use, too.

Krystina Prindle, USA

It has so many great features and unlike the majority of apps it doesn't charge for every good feature. This app was clearly created to help people and not for greed. It is a great app and I use it every day!

A Google user, USA

I have been recommending this to others. chronic illness is time consuming enough. having one app for all my reminders and logging is a huge help
