Affectus, qui passio est, desinit esse passio simulatque eius claram et distinctam formamus ideam.

Emotion, which is suffering, ceases to be suffering as soon as we form a clear and precise picture of it.

Leo… your Borderline is as high as mine, I have a Borderline diagnosis

Buttercup... I would say your test results are quite consistent for Avoidant, Paranoid and dependent.

CaptK...  Actually, it looks pretty much what you and the Pdoc came up with the other day.  Would you agree?

I will do the test again over the weekend.  Today I received the application and Test Questionnaires from the Complex Needs Service for Personality Disorder.  They are similar to the tests we do online.  It's odd that they didn't enclose any information about the service they offer.  All I know is that it is an 18-month programme. 

Each week I would have 1-2-1 with a Pdoc for 1 hr, I also attend group therapy for 1.5hrs, and, because it is an intense therapy course, I will have daily telephone access to the Pdoc, obviously within set hours. 

I imagine it is a tough course for anyone with a PD.  I must confess to feeling very suspicious of their application and questionnaires, which I feel very intrusive, considering I don’t know who’s reading them.  I will expect the entire process to take considerable time; a waiting list just to see a Pdoc for an assessment can take months on the NHS and then I could be looking at another year on a waiting list.  But, be thankful for small mercy's, at least the ball is rolling

This sounds all very intensive, I'm sure it'll be very helpful. Is it D.B.T.?

I would agree though, it does sound like what my Pdoc was saying is present in this test.

musicken.... that's significantly high scoring for Paranoid, Borderline and Avoidant.  Have you read much about what Personality Disorder is?  This is the link to MIND's leaflet on PD. 

http://www.mind.org.uk/mental_health_a-z/8028_understanding_personality_disorders?gclid=CK_Dtu7FgbYCFUbMtAodOHYA7Q

It's worth baring in mind that everyone has certain Personality Disorder traits as part of their own character.  It is when these symptoms cause significant trouble in someone life, is when they might be diagnosed with a particular PD; there are three clusters, A, B & C

If you find you can identify with a PD, it is worth discussing with your GP and Therapist.

I've had a read, but it's not making much sense to me to be honest.  Every time I try to read it, it seems jumbled and chaotic to me, and it makes me feel anxious.  I'll have another read when I don't feel so stressed and low.

That link to MIND's leaflet does encompass all personality disorders, which can feel a bit muddled and daunting.  You scored reasonably high for Borderline, which is the most commonly diagnosed.  This is a link to the Borderline information.  I hope it's a bit more clear cut

 http://www.mind.org.uk/mental_health_a-z/8037_understanding_borderline_personality_disorder

Best not to look when you feel so low.  I wouldn't take it too seriously, but it might be worth a look for anyone who thinks they might identify with the symptoms.  When I first read it, it made a lot of sense, like it was about me!

Thanks Catb

yes, muddied and daunting, that's what I was trying to say.   Will have a proper look at the other link :)

Hi

I know this is an old topic but thought I would post my results anyway. Im not sure if taking the test is a good thing, what do others think?

Paranoid |||||||||||||||||| 73% 50%
Schizoid |||||||||||||||||| 79% 40%
Schizotypal |||||||||||||||||| 72% 56%
Antisocial |||||||||||||||| 67% 46%
Borderline |||||||||||||||| 63% 45%
Histrionic |||||||||||||| 51% 52%
Narcissistic |||||||||||| 43% 40%
Avoidant |||||||||||||||||||| 83% 48%
Dependent |||||||||||||||||| 72% 44%
Obsessive-Compulsive |||||||||||||| 57% 45%
Sometimes one creates a dynamic impression by saying something, and sometimes one creates as significant an impression by remaining silent.
