    Claustrophobia is a common fear of closed spaces and the inability to breathe. It can develop in childhood or manifest itself in adulthood as a result of a strong emotional shock. In the most difficult cases, it causes panic and loss of control over oneself. Test yourself with the CLQ online claustrophobia test. The test can be taken for free and without registration.

    The CLQ has only recently appeared. Before him, it was impossible to identify the symptoms of claustrophobia on your own. This screening technique has gained wide popularity due to its simplicity and accessibility. nine0003

    The test consists of 2 scales that characterize the main types of fears in claustrophobia: SS (Suffocation Subscale) - fear of suffocation, and RS (Restriction Subscale) - fear of restriction of actions.

    Interpretation of results

    Questions focus on hypothetical situations and the person's feelings in them to assess the degree of discomfort the respondent feels.

    The sum of both scales will show the overall level of development of the disease:

    • less than 10 points - no symptoms; nine0018
    • 11-28 points - the level of disorder is below average;
    • 29-48 points - the level of fear with a tendency to increase;
    • More than 49 points - a high degree of development of the disorder.

    A score over 18 is considered to indicate a significant risk of deterioration. If your final score exceeds the indicated limit, we recommend that you immediately consult a doctor.

    Deciphering the component scales will clarify the nature and specifics of the manifestation of fear. For the scale of fear of suffocation, a result of more than 10 is dangerous, for a scale of fear of immobilization - more than 21 points. nine0003

    Based on the analysis of this information, the therapist will select the most appropriate treatment protocol for your needs.

    Who is this test for?

    The CLQ is designed for an adult audience. It is universal for men and women.

    How long will the test take?

    The method contains 26 questions, for which 5 response options are expected from “no anxiety” to “severe anxiety”.

    The total points will be calculated automatically, so allow only 10-15 minutes to go through the items of the questionnaire and familiarize yourself with its conclusion. nine0003

    How to respond to a high level of anxiety

    It is important to remember that the test cannot replace a full examination by a specialist. Its result reflects only the primary diagnosis, which requires clarification. We recommend that you do not ignore the alarming symptoms and seek medical advice.

    Is it possible to cure claustrophobia on your own

    A phobia of any kind is a kind of mental clamp. It is possible to remove it through thoughtful psychological therapy. In advanced cases, medications are used to sedate and reduce nervous tension. nine0003
