Brief Grief Questionnaire
Grief intensity
Five questions about how grief is affecting you. Designed for use some months after a death, not in the first weeks.
This questionnaire is a screening aid, not a diagnosis. Scores describe how you have been feeling recently — only a qualified health professional can diagnose a condition. Bring your result to them.
