Recently while looking up some mental disorders over the Google, I stumbled upon this little test. It's pretty simple, "Are you this, would you do that" fare, but it gives you a good selection of traits that it gauges to show you just how much of what you are. I found it accurate for the most part, but still interesting. So go ahead and take it, give us your results on this board. Was it what you expected? Did anything surprise you?

With me, I was largely nodding my head saying, "Yeah, that makes sense, I knew that, etc." I finally know I have an honest to goodness Peter Pan complex, at least. I was a little intrigued at my anti-authority score, though. Didn't realize I was that chaotic a person. I also figured my dependency would be a little higher than it was.

I'm still trying to work out how one can be lazy and disorganized but have a great work ethic, though. That stumps me.

Stability results were very high which suggests you are extremely relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic.

Orderliness results were moderately low which suggests you are, at times, overly flexible, improvised, and fun seeking at the expense of reliability, work ethic, and long term accomplishment.

Extraversion results were moderately high which suggests you are, at times, overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity.

Clean, secretive, does not make friends easily, observer, hates large parties, risk averse, perfectionist, reclusive, solitude loving, more practical than abstract, does not like to stand out, high self control, intellectual, mind over heart, very cautious, takes precautions, respects authority, irritable, emotionally sensitive.

Pretty much what I had already known. Nice of the internet to depress me.

I got the exact same thing.

I found it to be accurate in some places, but completely off in others. Of course, the test is completely based on my own answers, so maybe it's my fault.

introverted, secretive, messy, depressed, does not like leadership, somewhat nihilistic, observer, does not make friends easily, unassertive, feels invisible, feels undesirable, hates large parties, does not like to stand out, leisurely, suspicious, submissive, abstract, unpredictable, intellectual, likes rain, likes the unknown, negative, weird, not a risk taker, unadventurous, avoidant, strange
I agree with bits of it, but I wouldn't say that I'm submissive or avoidant. I'm deffinitly not Nihilistic. But yea, it does pick out my low self esteem rather well :( . I'm also a little surprised it picked out the fact that I like the rain...

It makes me sound like a Goth/Emo. That can't be right! I'm wearing a Yellow shirt!

introverted, secretive, reclusive, tough, non social, observer, fearless, solitary, libertarian, detached, does not like to lead, outsider, abides the rules, mind over heart, good at saving money, does not like to stand out, does not make friends easily, self sufficient, not aggressive, likes the unknown, unconcerned with external opinion, strong, abstract, independent, very intellectual, analytical, high self control.

Bolded the ones I find to be true.

I'm not surprised my Peter Pan complex is at 90- I'd expect it to be at 100, actually.

Who do you work for!?

(I scored an eighty in paranoia so we can join the tin foil hat club together! :D )
Can I join? Even though I am most likely to snap and kill of all of you?
I would let you join, but I have the sneaking suspicion that you work for the russians...no idea why.
