Did the test. High on narcistic, moderate on histrionic, obsessive-compulsive and something .. was it antisocial? Forgot.

First I thought I'll have to correct myself, learn something..

Then I figured that being narcistic is associated with competition and accomplishment in some way, and thought I wouldn't wanna undermine my competitive spirit by becoming more humble or anything like that.

I'll have to take it I am flawed, but my characteristic flaws might work in good co-operation with the things I want. It seems most reasonable for the moment.

I've been often worried about unrestrained self-importance, and I've asked how I seem to some of my friends. I've told about my worry; many good, close friends have said they don't read any kind of arrogance from me, while others sometimes complain about that.

I guess it's a working compromise.

I wouldn't want to go the other way, thinking I've got no special qualities, I deserved nothing more than anyone else, and I didn't matter any more than anyone else. I just don't find the needed drive from anything like that, and it just doesn't seem to work.

I just matter more to me than anyone else, and I accept others to hold themselves more valuable for themself than what they value others. How it's portrayed, now .. I'd wish balance and good taste in that - for myself, and everyone.

This is consistent with my MMPI results about 5 years ago...

I'm definitely OCD, but I've adapted to make it a healthy pattern of thinking, ala being orderly, eating well, working out regularly, etc. I do still check locks, lock my car multiple times, and won't let even a single drop of water rest in my kitchen sink when I am done with the dishes...

Schizotypal, YUP! It's part of being creative, and related to being ADHD too, from what I have heard, and I am the ADHD poster child, so I'm fine with it.

Histrionic? Well OK. I do like to have fun and entertain the hell out of others, wherever I'm at, but its not all about me, I just love to hear others laughter.

I'm not posting mine because I still want you people to talk to me.

Suffice it to say, this test raised more questions than it gave answers.

 

[prplchknz]

1.)it's an online test so I wouldn't worry too much about results. 2.)if you're going to worry at least have it be because you get very high on something a few times.

[EcK]

[prplchknz]

I did.

so did I, but who said they were schizotypal because it said moderate? I mean moderate c'mon! you probably aren't something if it said moderate.

+ look at purp, u'd believe she's crazy, but nah, she's just awesome

those darned tests never take this into account.

 

[NewEra]

That's not good, because I answered honestly. And I took this test a couple times before, a few months ago and then previously a couple of months before that. Each time the number and degree of disorders increase lol.

Sweet! Got one! What do I win?

*edit* Oh and the difference between schizod and avoidant is... "Unlike avoidants, schizoids genuinely prefer to be alone and do not secretly wish for popularity."

Gretchen: My mom had to get a restraining order against my stepdad. He has emotional problems.
Donnie: Oh, I have those too! What kind of emotional problems does your dad have?
Gretchen: He stabbed my mom four times in the chest.
Donnie: Oh.

Donnie: I made a new friend today.
Dr. Lilian Thurman: Real or imaginary?
Donnie: Imaginary.

My state has the highest suicide rate in the nation and a severe lack of mental health practitioners... I wouldn't worry about this test too much, as it's on a site that also hosts this test: "Can You Name These TV Show Theme Songs?" If you have a concern, check out a real mental health web site or contact a mental health practitioner...

Aw, beat me by 1.5 points! Want to start a paranoid/schizotypal/avoidant club? (I can never remember what the schizotypal one means, because it's not as cool-sounding as schizoid. ) Found it - Schizotypal personality disorder - MayoClinic.com
