Impressive, eh? After checking out all the disorder definitions, and realizing how many of them sound totally like me, I begin to wonder how on earth I manage to function within society at all... *heavy sigh*

Just a few random and inacurate quotes:

- feels extremely anxious in social situations (check);

- tends to choose jobs that require little social contact (check; when I see an ad that says "customer service" or any variation thereof, I skip it like I got burned);

- gets lost in the details, totally missing the big picture (check);

- tends to stay in abusive relationships (check!... oh okay, only one, but it was more than enough);

- craves social relationships, but doesn't feel adequate to obtain them (check, check, check; either that, or see above; not that I felt adequate in THAT one either, btw).

Nothing like an innocent little quiz to lift your spirits.;) No, I'm just kidding, really. I know it's not that bad. I really do. It can't be that bad. Not any more. Right? *bites nails*

The shocking thing is that a lot of this is perfectly accurate, or at least was a while ago. I am better now. Really.
And some of the things you mentioned also apply to me:being anxious in social situations, getting lost in details indstead seeing the big picture...
But it is just a quiz after all. And the questions allow only 'yes' and 'no', no 'depends...'.
So I calm myself with the opinion that the relult it is just over-poignant.

Don't lose hope, anyway!

'show me yours, I show you mine' ;))) *giggles*

Yep. Your result actually did make me feel better... though maybe I shouldn't admit it.:P

Of course it's just a quiz. And it's fun in a way... especially for masochists.;) (why wasn't there a masochistic disorder, btw??? :D)

My ex (the one I had the abusive relationship with) was definitely very high paranoid and borderline. As well as a couple other things.;) And I stayed with her for over three years... *sigh* BUT I am still alive and well, so... *winks and smiles*
