Since I was away this weekend at the reunion, I find it useful to fall back on online tests people send me. Fortunately, I have an irrational fascination with psychological testing, even the thumbnail sketches on the Inters-net. Does my freak flag fly?

Personality Disorder Test Results
Please remember that this test isn’t meant to diagnose you. Only a professional can do that. Below are your test results, broken down for the ten different personality disorders. You are rated “low,” “moderate,” “high,” or “very high” probability for each disorder. Low or moderate ratings mean that you are unlikely to have the disorder. High or very high means you are more likely to have the disorder. Only a professional can diagnose a disorder, however.
So, people who know me: accurate or not?

Oh, everyone is a little schizoid. Life would be so very boring otherwise.
