Abstract A healthy individual is described by physical strength, mental stability and
emotional wellness. With endlessly populated cities and breathtaking lifestyles, the
wellbeing has been reduced to balancing nutrients in our diets, keeping our happiness
and peace on bait to emotional evils including depression and anxiety. An anxious
state is characterized by boundless fear or surplus negative thoughts or shattering
confusions and worries that disturb the tranquility of an existence. Dealing with
anxiety is big problem but identifying and diagnosing an anxious state is an even
bigger problem. The aim of this study is to build an interactive system for identifying
the presence of anxiety disorder in an individual by interacting with him/her through
an ordinary questionnaire that evaluates an individual’s mental disposition. The eval-
uation is performed by Mamdani fuzzy inference system (MFIS) that measures every
input provided by the user to infer his/her wellness stature. The user is provided with
an analysis score, and follow-up leads if required for prognosis. The primary goal is
to make people aware of the emergency to take care of his/her mental health hiccups
through an assessment.
