According to this I need to check into a hospital stat. I scored very high in OCD, avoidant and one other which I don't want to name.

This is frightening.

i scored very high in 3, this test is suprisingly accurate, since i have a diagnosis of these 3 PD's.

I am moderate on three of the things. The bad thing is that as a psych nurse, I knew what was the "right" answer and what was the "wrong" answer so I had to really try and be honest with myself.

I'm with ya, Steph. I like very much my ME time. Maybe bc most of my life was spent as an only child??? Interesting quiz.

Scored moderate on 1 which wasn't too much of a surprise and low on the rest....Hmmmm.....

Isn't that the truth! It took great reflection to give my answer and not what I know may lead to a certain dx. Yes, nurses are difficult patients. Scored VH on 1, the rest mod or low. No suprises.
I am not a psych nurse but I have heard repeatedly that nurses in this field tend to have more mental health issues. Again I do not work in psych nursing so I do not have an opinion on this, would you agree or disagree with this statement??

I scored low in all areas, as I expected, having been a psych nurse for 29 years and counting!

I think the test is highly inaccurate. Many of the questions are not able to be answered just "yes" or "no" - they require explanation, enlargement.

Man I am all screwed up.
Disorder | Rating
Paranoid: High
Schizoid: High
Schizotypal: Moderate
Antisocial: High
Borderline: Very High
Histrionic: High
Narcissistic: Very High
Avoidant: High
Dependent: High
Obsessive-Compulsive: High

Guess I may consider liking to be around others moderately, just don't want to socialize with them because the are not as good as I am, they may want what I need and get in the way of my handwashing.

Low on everything, high on Histrionic... sadly, seeing as Im an MHA on 3 psych units, I shoudl have already known this
