3. Severe

Rationale:
Changes in verbalization can be indicative of increasing anxiety. Mild anxiety causes an increase in questioning. Moderate anxiety results in voice tremors and pitch changes. At severe levels, communication is difficult to understand. Communication may not be understandable at all when the client reaches the panic stage.
