How did you do

[penguinking9]

Hmm, low across the board, without answering no to absolutely everything.

But yes, the questions are very badly phrased. They leave no room for 'sometimes' or 'not really', or 'I don't know'

And questions like 'Do you engage in any obsessive or compulsive behavior?' are a tad leading. (And they can't spell)

How often do they speak to you?

Depends how hungry they are or how awake I am when I stand on them.

I don't need a test to measure my mental health.

I am beginning to enjoy the Jeremy Kyle show.

I am doomed.

Personally I'd take being called a narcissist a bit of an insult, but there you go.

To be honest, I did feel a bit insulted.

These are the stated symptoms:
Requires excessive praise and admiration - I like praise, who doesn't? How do you define excessive?
Takes advantage of others - Definitely not!
Grandiose sense of self-importance - No, I know my limitations too well.
Lack of empathy - I'd have said empathy was one of my strong points.
Lying, to self and others - Nope, but I could be lying.(I'm not really - hate lying.)
Obsessed with fantasies of fame, power, or beauty. Yes, I want to be on X-Factor and become a singing sensation.

I only had a few lows, and the others were evenly split. It didn't come as a surprise ...

Well I thought I answered honestly, but I don't see how Narcissistic can be high? I certainly don't think I'm better than others, and nor do I seek praise, nor am I selfish, nor any other definition of the word!

Or maybe I am, and am just in denial, although I've never been to Egypt.

I got low for everything except Histrionic, Narcissistic and Avoidant, which were Moderate.

But it's a very simplistic test - many answers really weren't yes or no.

Also, there are reasons for feeling an emotion that aren't to do disorders. I was in a foul mood this morning, and as a result, spent the day fuming inwardly about another member of staff. I can fairly confidently put that mood down to hormones, but I could answer yes to the one that said something like "are you sometimes very angry", because I am, sometimes.

Actually, I am cross about this particular issue, but I know the utter fury has subsided, and I know I wouldn't have felt it as bad on another day.

Also, the one about others seeing me as eccentric. I have no idea. My friends don't, but they are all like me, so that stands to reason!
