8. i hate DSM-IV based evaluations
its a good starter, but imho, individual cases have to be looked at subjectively

damnit, theres the psych student coming out:)

9. Let me get this straight.
This test can interpret the same traits of a "healthy", independent, and otherwise "happy" individual as pscychologically unbalanced.

Theoretically any of us can be marked as "having issues" at any given time, but I still hold out the premise that being the distinct individual that you are does not make you ready for the proverbial couch or a menace to society.

That is, unless you think I'm suffering from the Freudian defense mechanism known as "denial".

12. If you click...
... the middle choice for each answer, you will be 50% fucked up on every diagnosis.

Whoever designed this test might not be crazy, but there are for sure stupid :)

13. The psychologist in me had problems with the accuracy of that test.
Some disorders had good questions but some didn't. Oh, well, take all self-measurements at fun and not accurate. Although, I am somewhat narcissistic and the only child in me doesn't need other people around for entertainment, but I enjoy people. Here are my results:

Paranoid 14%
Schizoid 42%
Schizotypal 14%
Antisocial 30%
Borderline 18%
Histrionic 14%
Narcissistic 42%
Avoidant 14%
Dependent 10%
Obsessive-Compulsive 18%

Apparently, I am Narcissistic and Schizoid (a hermit) with some antisocial tendencies (although I'm not sure they accurately measured antisocial)

14. I confess...
I'm slightly more paranoid, anti-social, histrionic, narcissistic, and obsessive-compulsive than the average person. Sue me. I'm an emotional, but somewhat guarded woman. We all have our histories behind who we are and why. We can either grow and make the best of who we are or look down at ourselves as flawed. I choose the latter.

I am though, much less schizoid and schizotypal than average. The other stuff I fall one or two points over or under the line.

15. Eh!
Just because I live alone, value my solitude and don't like to party much anymore, I'm allegedly "schizoid?" I don't think so! On the other hand, I am a packrat which is often a mild acting out of obsessive-compulsion, and according to this, I'm not even close!

16. Probably revealing too much about me but what the hell?

Despite reading the explanation, I still have no idea what a "borderline" personality is. I live about 2-3 hours from the Canadian border, though. Also, I am far more paranoid than I scored. :-)
