I love how those tests make questions like "Do people accuse you of being self centered?" without including some question to find the reason. While I'm not getting that accusation often anymore, when I got it more it wasn't from being self centered in the narcissistic sense, but from not knowing how to show interest in people/ask the right questions. I wanted to, but it came out awkward. Even though this is an amateur test, I've noticed this about standard tests used in psychiatry too - I've often had to say that the reason for answering yes to a question is different from the standard interpretation in psychiatry. The psychiatrist also agreed the tests have their limitations in determining why someone answers yes to a question, if he or she isn't within the "traditional" psychiatric categories.

Exactly.

Best not to perceived as true, but I potentially have six personality disorders 0.0 I find that I had to answer yes to a lot of those questions, if therapy finds any one of those I probably be quite suprised!

This is more or less accurate. They are in the questions, so no surprise. I'd like to know more about narcissistic traits though, which ones they are, because I don't think I'm as much narcissistic as the description says.

I think it's much better at narcissistic traits (i.e. here it's much lower), but I don't know why it's so much higher at obsessive-compulsive traits.

Edit: It's interesting that the first three is all from Anxious Personality Disorders.

Since I scored so high at Anxious Personality Disorders, I looked a little bit deeper into it. Here's what I've found:

On the results page:

Quote:
Avoidant Personality Disorder - individual is socially inhibited, feels inadequate, and is oversensitive to criticism. Core issue is an inability to resolve their codependent need for connection with their codependent fear of rejection.


So I looked up co-dependency ( http://www.planetpsych.com/zPsychology_101/codependency.htm ):

Quote:
(...)

Typically, the co-dependent person came from a dysfunctional home in which their emotional needs were not met. Their parents were not able to provide the attention, warmth and responsiveness which kids need in order to feel that their needs count. So, they grew up feelings that their needs did NOT matter, that their desires were unimportant, that they themselves were 2nd class citizens. Over time, the co-dependent person actually FORGETS what her or his needs, desires, feelings about things even are! In one cartoon which captures this dynamic, the husband and wife are looking at each other over their menus in a restaurant. The husband says to the wife, "I forget, which one of us doesn’t like fish?"

Of course, as kids, we try and try to get the response we need from our parents...at least until we give up completely. But we remain always drawn to that same sort of familiar person...an emotionally unavailable person whom we can try to get love from, whom we can try to change. The need to re-play the childhood drama and TRY, TRY, TRY to achieve a different ending is so intense, that it determines even the type of person the co-dependent is drawn to! A person who is kind, stable, reliable and interested would not be attractive, typically, to the co-dependent person...they would appear "boring." Having received very little nurturing, the co-dependent tries to fill this unmet need vicariously, by becoming a care-giver, especially to any person who appears in some way needy.

Many consequences flow from this sorry state of affairs. For one, co-dependents become addicted to emotional pain and to unhealthy relationships. They are drawn to people who are not available to them, or who reject them or abuse them. They often develop unhealthy relationships that eventually become unbearable. Because relationships hurt so much, co-dependents are more in touch with the dream of how the relationship COULD be, rather than the reality of the situation.

(...)

By being drawn to people with problems that need fixing, or by being enmeshed in situations that are chaotic, uncertain and emotionally painful, they avoid focusing on their responsibility to themselves. While constantly seeking intimacy with another person, the "desperate" quality of their needs makes true intimacy impossible. In trying to conceal the demanding-ness from themselves and others, they grow more isolated and alienated from themselves and from the very people they long to be close to! They may be predisposed emotionally and often biochemically to becoming addicted to drugs, alcohol, and/or certain foods, especially sugary ones. They may have a tendency toward episodes of depression, which they try to forestall through the excitement provided by unstable relationships.


...which fits me surprisingly well. Sad I wonder how much of it is autism-related, though.

That;s strange. I don't think i'm histrionic. Histrionic - avoidant is in contradiction, no?
