Mild anxiety (GAD-7 score 7).

Your total of 7 out of 21 falls in the mild anxiety range.
A score below 8 is under both the common (10) and alternate (8) screening thresholds for probable generalized anxiety disorder.
Your GAD-2 subscale score (items 1 and 2 only) is 2 out of 6: Unlikely GAD.
The GAD-7 is a screening aid, not a diagnosis. Only a clinician can diagnose an anxiety disorder using a full history and assessment.
