I took this little personality disorders quiz for fun. I've taken it twice and got very different results.
Check it out. It's just for fun though, not meant to diagnose anyone. :-)

Last time I took it a couple of weeks ago I remembered scoring very high for Borderline personality and Avoidant personality and relatively low for all the others. This time I got very different results...interesting.

Schizotypal: Moderate
Antisocial: Low
Borderline: Low
Histrionic: Moderate
Narcissistic: Low

Obsessive-Compulsive: LowIt kind of looks like I'm a whole bunch of nothing except Avoidant!! That fits right in with my fear of confrontations. I'm getting more assertive though. Trying.

Interesting test. I was low on everything except Dependent (moderate), which wasn't a complete surprise.
I'd like to be more independent, like I used to be. But one step at a time, eh?

> ClearSkiesI'm avoidant too! You're not alone there! I wonder how accurate this quiz is. Does it seem like I have schizotypal traits here? I think not! Only IRL...

Moderate is still within normal according to the quiz. I sure would like to have your results! :-)Deneb

It's kind of odd how one can have borderline traits and avoidant traits at the same time...
I have the same thing going on. Weird!

Actually Deneb, I don't even know what half of them mean, and I don't know how I got the score I got, because I honestly don't remember the questions, or if I answered them the way I should have. I've never been formally diagnosed, and I don't know if I agree with these results.
Having said that, yeah I am going through a rough time, a rough 7 years to be exact, my life is a mess, and I am seriously f'ed in the head. I've got serious problems with my mind and soul, I know the cause, I sorta refuse treatment, been off my anti-depressants for months now, and seem to be dealing. That's about all I can do. I don't think I am worse for wear for not trying to emotionally or medicinally treat my problems. That doesn't mean that I am not admitting the problem, I am just refusing to fix it.
Apparently I enjoy wallowing in self loathing and self pity wrapped together with self abuse in the form of alcohol.
Geeze, did I say too much all in one post???

so Deneb and Damos,
how does one explain us????
I say all human beings are all of those things at one time or another. If I had taken that months ago, my answers to the questions would have been different, thus my "rating" would have been different.
We can all share a big (((((HUG))))) and be happy in the knowledge that we are human!

Narcissistic: Moderate

Obsessive-Compulsive: HighThough I must have not read some of the questions regarding dependency correctly. That one should be low.
Perhaps I was avoiding the issue of dependence. Since I scored very high on avoidant.
