So, how disordered are these INTP-personalities out here REALLY? :D
http://similarminds.com/personality_disorder.html
Of course you can't take it seriously unless you really have been diagnosed with a personality disorder, but it does say something about your tendencies and such. Informative and fun, so take it, vote for your highest personality disorder-score and post your scores... :)
My scores:
Paranoid - 82%
Schizoid - 86%
Schizotypical - 69%
Antisocial - 42%
Borderline - 90%
Histrionic - 26%
Narcissistic - 10%
Avoidant - 68%
Dependent - 38%
Obsessive-Compulsive - 62%
EDIT: Well I seem to be turning unhealthier with the second... 90% with 3 personality disorders now, although I wouldn't call schizoid a disorder (as goes for schizotypical)... New scores:
Paranoid - 86%
Schizoid - 90%
Schizotypical - 82%
Antisocial - 46%
Borderline - 90%
Histrionic - 14%
Narcissistic - 10%
Avoidant - 90%
Dependent - 42%
Obsessive-Compulsive - 54%
Yay me...

Seems pretty accurate, though I'd've thought antisocial'd be higher. Avoidant too.
Schizoid, I think, is also higher than that. :ph34r:

I've taken this test a few times. I think this is the highest paranoid score I've ever gotten. I usually get shizotypal in the 80's. My histrionic has been above 60, borderline has been above 60, avoidant has been above 60 all in the past. I guess I'm a little more mentally stable right now.

So, how disordered are these INTP-personalities out here REALLY? :D
Among my friends and I, a test similar to this was a craze for us a few years ago. I'd like to point out that all of us scored abnormally high on at least a few of each (and I was the only INTP). Just wanted to point this out so no one goes interpreting a relationship between INTP and personality disorders based on this thread (not saying anyone has explicitly....just in case someone does)

well first of all, no one here who's posted has received 100%, so even if this was a valid test- none of us have a full-fledged disorder. Second you can't diagnose something serious like these disorders without a professional anyways, so if someone got 100% or close to it that would be just an indication that they should see a doctor about it.

Actually, with similarminds.com 90% is the highest you can get and 10% the lowest. If I noticed this correctly, that would mean I'm a 100% introvert, 100% borderline and 96% schizoid. Messed up? :huh:

I seem to recall that borderliners tend to be females with ESF personalities.
Seriously? In my experience they tend to be more iNtuitive, but that could just be me. The disorder is quite common anyhow; 1.5% of the population has it, so enough exceptions there...

"Schizoid Personality Disorder - individual generally detached from social relationships, and shows a narrow range of emotional expression in various social settings."
I was quite ready to call BS on this one. Introversion is not a disorder. This nonsense promotes the Extravert bias that has tormented Introverts in a hurtful and negative way.
Then I read this:
Author Note:I don't think Schizoid personality is a valid disorder (read (http://www.pipeline.com/~dada3zen/schizoid_a_personality_not_a_disorder.htm)), some of the smartest people in history were schizoid because they occupied a remote end of the intelligence bell curve. Schizotypal personality can encompass highly original thinkers as well as totally insane people so I think it's a flawed type. I think the remaining eight disorders are generally valid.
Notice that I still had a mini-rant. Either way I feel better. ;P

I scored highest on Schizoid. Not surprised.
I think I've been diagnosed with OCD, but that was by a psychologist and not a psychiatrist, so I'm not sure if it counts. I actually scored low on it on this test.

Another schizoid here, but only 62%, so I figure it's not that bad.
But did you notice that the "average" numbers are only based on the people who took that particular web test, so it doesn't really account for anything. I'd bet that most average-Joe-guardians wouldn't go online to test themselves for personality disorders...

test like these always say I'm schizoid. I don't think it is a disorder though.
I laughed when i posted my results in this thread earlier...
I was plain pissed when my MD suggested I was bipolar, because I talk super fast and I have had a history of depression. My therapist thinks it is ADD.

I laughed when i posted my results in this thread earlier...
I was plain pissed when my MD suggested I was bipolar, because I talk super fast and I have had a history of depression. My therapist thinks it is ADD.
http://www.talentdevelop.com/Page76.html
Why aren't more professionals familiar with the gifted?
Gifted former child,
that's funny, i think that this all depends on the income, really.. every kid, as well as every person has great potential in a field they enjoy if they stick at it.. i think the only problem would come up if this ADD or ADHD literally made the person unhappy.. and really, depression is something that can be treated without drugs in most cases.. in fact, i tend to believe in all cases it can be, but some just require very specialized treatments..
they used to put me into gifted classes when i was a kid, and i was just about the poorest kid in all of those classes.. so i always got the cold shoulder from the other kids.. and they refused to play with me at recess etc.. sucked man! anyhow, i was convinced by everyone by the age of 13 that i had something wrong with me because i failed school.. surprise: lack of interest.. later dropped out.. now have a 4.0 in college and it's great, but i'm waiting for a bigger challenge, still..
fact is, when rich kids are different it's ultimately perceived to be the best thing ever.. but if some poor kid comes along and is a bit different from the norm, something must seriously be wrong with him/her. this is probably because it jeopordizes the lie that society has created for kids born into money: THEY R ALL VERI SPECIAL BCUZ THEY R RICH.. kthnx
just to make a note: i'm not excluding adults from this, but it seems to me the larger impact of all of this negativity occurs during adolesence.
everyone's special.. and i think ADHD and ADD are just another hook, line, and sinker diagnosis for people to give more money to overpaid asshat drug companies: just like manic depression and loads of others. all of this effort, in order to convince people they should feel 'normal' like everyone else. when, in fact, everyone else does not usually feel normal.
i'm sure other people out there agree that diversity is a very beautiful, and wonderful thing..
we're all gifted in our own way.. labeling people as having something 'wrong' with them for being different definitely will not help them feel accepted, and creates a world of problems in itself.. problems only the drug companies and psychiatrists who overprescribe medications benefit from.. while these people being labeled feel restricted in a world where they might otherwise be able to exercise their real, undiscovered talents..
just thought i'd share my thoughts on that in regard to this entire thread, really..

so know I'll have to find out, what makes a schizoid person... apart from looking in the next mirror, which wouldn't help anyway... nothing new there... ;)
oh... warum in die Ferne schweifen...
Schizoid Personality Disorder - individual generally detached from social relationships, and shows a narrow range of emotional expression in various social settings.
well... obviously "schizoid" sounds a lot worse than it is... :)

just thought i'd share my thoughts on that in regard to this entire thread, really..
Speaking from first hand experience: Not all depression can be treated with out drugs. I would say however that depression should never be treated ONLY with drugs because the depression shapes behaviors in response to social and interpersonal interactions and even if the depression is treated and under control or gone or whatever you are left with the resulting behavior pattern which is not helpful at all. I have worked with ADHD kids and the issue is NOT whether they are happy or can deal with it. I'm not talking about the typical "hyperactive" busy little kid who is annoying and bouncing off walls because nobody has ever given them structure in their life, but literally the kid who cannot focus on a single task even when there is an adult working with them one on one. I'm not into adding ritalin into the schools' drinking supplies, but sometimes additional chemicals are necessary to treat the kid in order to help them develop behaviors that are conducive to learning. Adults can decide for themselves...they have choices about how to structure their own lives and environments. As for manic depressives, I joke that I could have enjoyed a little mania to go with the depressive, but in truth a very high number of people with bi-polar disorder kill themselves. It is difficult to treat because the manic part to a certain point is really positive and often results in great accomplishment and charisma but up an over the top of the curve it becomes nutty and destructive subsequently dropping into the depression part, which must feel much worse than plain old depression because they have the high to compare with. I have two friends who killed themselves in their early 20's. They were really amazing cool guys too, but they never wanted to stay on the meds. I don't believe the pharm. companies and doctors are out there trying to make everbody feel like happy clones, but there is the point to being able to be comfortable in your own skin and be able to relate to other people without you yourself feeling like the life energy is sucked out of you, or that you are a misfit and you feel the need to say "fuck you" to the world on a daily basis.
As for rich kids being in TAG classes, many they are not there because they are truly talented and gifted, but their parents have high expectations and the money to pay for extra tutoring and such to get them academically excelled (I taught in a private school---mega-pushy parents) My daughter is in a TAG program and it is kind of funny the parental support group is mostly geared toward how to help your odd-ball smart kid fit in better. There are conferences and coffees and monthly get togethers (that I never bother to go to.) My daughter in an IN(F/T)J, 13 in the eighth grade--has been in counseling and on anti-depressents for 3 years now (she's getting ready to give it a go without them soon) She has really high self-confidence and really doesn't have that need for middle school peer approval of anything. She marches to her own beat with a recognition that she doesn't fit in with the cliques, but she's happy she's doesn't. I am confident that the counseling and meds have helped develop coping behaviors and an understanding that she is who she is and she's content, proud even of her way-different personality. I will add the reason she ended up in counseling and all that was a)family history of clinical depression b)out of the ordinary personality type --the just don't quite fit in c) situational stress in her life---mainly the divorce of her parents.
It sounds like you didn't have much support in those years Chicken---I can totally relate to that. And I'm glad you have come into your own during college. I didn't have much support through out school either, but for me there was this expectation I put on myself that no matter how miserable I was I had to get good grades, or something "bad" would happen. I was smart enough to get by with bare minimum effort--probably my saving grace. I think something that sort of saved me socially was that I was attractive, so in the relationship end of things (highschool and college) some guys found it worthwhile to work through my out-there introverted personality. (probably easier as a female)
In the end, we are the ones labeling ourselves, wallowing in our weirdness, feeling bad because our society favors the wealthy, beautiful socially glib people. (Besides, they have their own set of problems) That sort of thinking makes us into victims and I refuse to be a victim. I think it takes everyone of us to contribute our talents and gifts where they are needed and that the fact is INTPs could contribute a lot to society, but we just aren't into that. The people who actually run the world are NOT the ones who could do the best job--they are there for the glory. (OK, sorry, I know that is really [George Bush] obvious.) The most qualified are the ones who look at the job and society and say "Hell, I'm not gonna get involved in that!"

So I'm schizoid and schizotypal. I'm glad schizotypal scored higher; I like that one better. At least my disorders are in the "eccentric" class. I take pride in being eccentric. I like the "peculiarities of behavior" in the description of schizotypal. I have worked all my life to develop peculiar behaviors, and I am happy the test recognizes that. I am proud to have an official psychiatric diagnosis of a disorder that is listed in the DSM-IV, but it isn't one of the disorders listed here. It's better to be crazy than to be normal.
Looking back through this thread to the forum troll - I don't mind an occasional troll; they can spice things up a bit and give us something to laugh at. But they shouldn't be allowed to get out of hand... (Now, I'm curious as to what else this troll posted here.)

Yes, just as I had inferred from other descriptions such as at:
http://www.pipeline.com/~dada3zen/schizoid_per_dis.htm
Not that I would want to be officially diagnosed as such and have it follow me around when trying to get a job or permits or licenses. Neither that I would want to be on meds since, apparently according to others, the side affects are often not worth it. The following is a discussion group by schizoids which, for me, has writings about experiences that which I am very familiar with.

I'm not very surprised by my results...
lol
I was diagnosed as schitzophrenic in 1998, and it took me 4 years to ween myself off of the highly addictive, mind warping drugs that they call "medication"...
:)
*Edit*
Shrinks suck.
The psychiatrist that "diagnosed" me asked my opinion.
I gave him one of 2 possibilites, but both led to the same conclusion.
kinda a no-brainer if you ask me...

I've definately got strong dependant tendancies-- I didn't, until recently, have much drive to be independant at all, and because I make very few friends, I would be pretty devistated if I lost my boyfriend. However, I have gotten to the point where I think I would be able to take care of myself.
I am awfully depressed when not in a relationship, though.

Do you hang on things? Do you harbor your emotion and not let things go? Do you keep things inside that bottle up and attempt to lowere your moral/thinking for the day? I do this a lot. But recently I have learned to view my thoughts objectively. I now imagine that I am sitting on a shore and watching my thoughts flow by like water rapids. It might sound cheesy but it has made my thought process a lot clearer.
Also and this is a different tangent. I read somewhere that by saying "Am I awake right now" and "This is it" throughout the day awakens ones mind more and gives one a heightened awareness when dreaming. I used to be practiced with this and it was definitely working. I started to have lucid dreams and throughout the day I was becoming very perceptive. And I am going on this tangent because it links to the above paragraph like so. But keeping my head clear and not hanging on things I become more in tune w/ my senses.

I like the blandness of the description:
Schizotypal Personality Disorder - individual is uncomfortable in close relationships, has thought or perceptual distortions, and peculiarities of behavior.
Apparently i'm crazier than I used to be. :wacko:

I scored below the average in all except aptitude to schizoidity (+5%) and narcissism (+2%).
I think this test confuses aptitude to schizoidity with introversion.

Hmm, this test says I'm a Narcissist. I don't see how that can be right. I do have a somewhat grandiose view of myself (I call it confidence), but I don't lack empathy.

As INTP's I would expect all of us to be highly schizoid and/or antisocial.

Note that the second-highest scores for me are dependent and schizoid, which, as far as I'm concerned, cannot occur in the same person...?
It can also be seen that I pretty much prefer middle answers.

I realise this is some thread necromancy, but schizoid PD is like being a super-INTP, scoring 100% on all 4 letters. Giving you 100% Ti, 100% Ne and 0% Fe, with all that implies.

Note that the second number is the internet norm for the test.
I actually wonder if their is a test-takers bias in self-reporting.
Interesting that Borderline was no more than 7% from the norm, and yet I had been considered to have that. Similarly I had the same experience with being considered an Aspie, and the Asperger's test on INTPc scored the opposite of it (I imply a noticeable degree within the norm.)
I already knew I was a schizoid, but even then it's the norm of a test (would such a norm be consistent with non-internet users? Probably not.) I could actually be an inverted Narcissist. I did test online as an NPA-, which I agree with.

I am cynical, as a disorder it's translated into "paranoid". None of these are really disorders, just personality ranges, and most of them contradict with each others yet I appear to score high on both ends, doesn't make any sense.

I am cynical, as a disorder it's translated into "paranoid". None of these are really disorders, just personality ranges, and most of them contradict with each others yet I appear to score high on both ends, doesn't make any sense.
There is a BIG difference between cynical and being paranoid, by the definition of paranoid personality disorder. A problem with that test is that it doesn't seem to have personality disorders in mind at all, just regular personality styles. It's obvious that people will score high in any one of them. It is way too sensitive and tries to shoehorn normality into disorders that only have a passing semblance of relationship with the questions posed.
For example, a question like:
"I prefer to do things alone"
it doesn't even seem to point to being solitary. I suspect they use that to increase the score of schizoid PD, even though SPD really has nothing to do with prefering to do things alone (much like being deaf has nothing to do with disliking music). It simply points to being introverted.
A question about SPD should really be along the lines of "I am stuck in a perpetual state of existential nihilism that cannot be escaped through any activities, be they social or not."
Or a question like:
"I have an hard time trusting people."
Not trusting people is normal. I suspect that this question is used to increase the paranoid score. However for this PD you would need to reword it more along the lines of:
"There is NO SUCH THING an an honest person in this world." or "Every single human on this planet is a liar and a manipulator."
They need to make the question more "personality disordered".
Such as:
"If somebody were to make me notice I have a spaghetti stain on my shirt, I might end up having a panic attack or collapse." (pointing to Avoidant Personality Disorder)
Not simply: "I am shy around people." Being shy is normal, but having a panic attack from a spaghetti stain on your shirt is more along the lines of what really is AvPD.
Or:
"If I have to spend more than a few hours alone, I will have a panic attack or attempt suicide." (pointing to Borderline Personality Disorder)
Not simply: "I hate being alone."

They have the "Normal" numbers on there for a reason. If someone is extremely high in a specific spot, it could point at a possible schizotypal(or other) personality disorder.

Those are all normal things in personality. Some people are slightly paranoid or borderline or histrionic. A much higher percentage than average points at a possible personality disorder due to the high frequency and combination of several symptoms. It doesn't claim to diagnose disorders.
Also:
Author Note:I don't think Schizoid personality is a valid disorder (read), some of the smartest people in history were schizoid because they occupied a remote end of the intelligence bell curve. Schizotypal personality can encompass highly original thinkers as well as totally insane people so I think it's a flawed type. I think the remaining eight disorders are generally valid.

Schizotypal personality can encompass highly original thinkers as well as totally insane people so I think it's a flawed type. I think the remaining eight disorders are generally valid.
It doesn't claim to diagnose disorders (and I would be very suspicious of any place on the Net that would make such a claim), but it does pretend to have at least average knowledge about the characteristics of personality disorders. But the commentary the author does about schizoid and schizotypal personality disorders only serves to show that he/she has far below average, maybe even below basic, knowledge about personality disorders. For example he implies that being schizoid is a side effect of being intelligent and that schizotypal PD makes you an original thinker. Just having minimal knowledge about personality disorders would be enough to know that having such a view doesn't make much sense.
I could talk at length about why I think such a site hurts more than helps when it comes to information about personality disorders. Though the problem is more with the people that use such sites in unintended ways (ie: self-diagnosis) rather than the authors, but that one author is different.
In my case it's even more specific because I happen to have schizoid PD. To make is short, why I was seeing such an opinion as a problem is such a scenario:
You have somebody that has schizoid PD and it is really a problem for him. He is emotionally dead, unable to take pleasure in anything, everything seems pointless, he is completely unable to see what is this being alive is all about, he feels like the living-dead, completely void of any passion about anything in life, etc. But he then notices that there are forums and such about schizoid personality disorder, and therefore decides to join to learn how other schizoids manage to go through life with that inner-deadness. But surprise to him, he realise that much of the community has just about no idea what schizoid personality disorder even is! So gone are his hopes to find any support! All he gets to see are people that, for reasons unknown to man, decided to equate schizoid PD to being a solitary individual and claim that being solitary is not a disorder (which is quite obvious). But when those people learn what SPD really is, for reasons even less known to man, a good proportion of them decide to then distort the definition to make sure that it still applies to them, no matter how non-sensical such a behavior is.
So, I think that places that talk about personality disorders should at least have a minimal knowledge of what a personality disorder is. Though in the age of the Net, one cannot really hope for such a thing.

Schizoid is pretty accurate ... would prefer it if they called it something else though .. makes me sound crazy.

I was diagnosed with having Social Anxiety Disorder but never thought that it truly accurate as I didn't fear social interaction, I just found it to be a waste of time. Over time I did developed shades of anxiety which were mainly due to inexperience and lack of knowledge and not fear of judgment. I really don't care what others think about me. I just find it hard to initially interact in a social setting which I can easily overcome with a little time. While I wouldn't consider myself normal I certainly don't consider myself abnormal or even superior. I'm simply different.

(I've been diagnosed with OCD, GAD, with performance anxiety and social anxiety)
Psychology is, for the most part, an emerging science, which is a flattering way of stating that it remains largely pseudoscientific (personality tests stand as testament to this). If it were a real science, we would be able to define disorders such that the correlation between the frequencies of various disorders (or disorderly traits like those in the test) would be 0%. As it is though, there seems to be a great deal of common ground between diagnoses. Nevertheless, given time I have hopes that psychology will become much more empirical and far less subjective than it currently is, but then again, there are a lot of ESFJ's out there...

Schizotypal Personality Disorder - individual is uncomfortable in close relationships, has thought or perceptual distortions, and peculiarities of behavior.
Who's been reading my nonexistent diary?!
Antisocial Personality Disorder - individual shows a pervasive disregard for, and violation of, the rights of others.
Nuh uh.
Paranoid Personality Disorder - individual generally tends to interpret the actions of others as threatening.
You're thinking about bashing me over the head with a waffle iron aren't you?! AREN'T YOU?!
Borderline Personality Disorder - individual shows a generalized pattern of instability in interpersonal relationships, self-image, and observable emotions, and significant impulsiveness.
Boo! I think in color, not black and white. Though this does sound somewhat similar to bipolar disorder which I do have, hmm...
This was fun.

Not too surprised with the results. Rational caution tempered by moderation. My near equally present rational/logical left and creative right banding together under the veil of my INTPness to go "Look, dude! Another test! Let's go analyze the shit out of ourselves for the umpteenth time!"
At least, I believe that's what I'm seeing in the high Schizoid and Schizotypal scores. The former express itself in a high capacity for analytical thought; the latter for creativity. Furthermore, the combination of the two traits explain well my relative lack of emotion compared to the seemingly average person -- it should be noted that I do have them, and often enough, but I try to express them as is rationally and logically appropriate to do so. It was definitely picking up on some of my social awkwardness for Schizotypy, and no doubt my general lack of interest in intense/broad social interaction for both.
I'm not surprised by any of the other scores. I have a large amount of self-pride and a bit of an ego when it comes to certain things, but I don't generally express it (then again, I don't generally express much, unless I'm playing my guitar or such..). Borderline.. I'm actually not too randomly impulsive, in large part because I've tempered myself to cut down on my impulsiveness expressed in my ADHD behavior. However, I am quite -spontaneous- and I seem impulsive to many people for my often quick-moving and tangential thought processes lead me to an unexpected (to others) course of action.
Histrionic is almost an anti-me. I'm generally considered a bit of an enigma, and helpful (for the proper purposes). I don't really give much a damn about people's attention, and I don't think I have the excessive emotionality to deliver. I tend to save that, besides humor, for the people I care most about.
Anti-social.. well, I'm almost surprised I didn't score lower on that. I'm asocial, not anti-social at all. I have a great respect for people's rights.
Avoidant: Perhaps in my public education system days, but not any longer. I'm much more free to be myself in the real world, and as noted above, neither have the emotional spontaneity to be oversensitive to criticism, nor confidence issues. I am a great believer in my own capabilities.
Dependent: While there are a handful of somewhat/rather important day-to-day activities I rather suck at, I can get by, and have.
Obsessive-Compulsive: I find my chaos blissful, thanks :)
I've got plenty of other thoughts on this, of course, but I'm curious to see what some others think, should they choose to comment. Or ask me questions to answer.. whichever.

I trust very few people in my life.
I also believe there is a thin line between paranoid and insightful. The only difference being whether time proves me to be correct or not.

Some higher scores than I expected. I scored higher on schizoid and schizotypal last time as well (latter seems self-defeating as I rather like a close relationship). I couldn't explain the obsessive-compulsive score; that one is a little weird. Everything else generally sounds about right.
I think I've shown the most improvement over schizoid and schizotypal behavior, believe it or not. I think histrionic and narcissistic got a little worse though, which is peculiar.

Schizoid is not so bad as long as one finds their niche in life and lives it successfully. One of my grandmas was schizoid. Had a successful long term marriage that sadly ended abruptly partly due to her issues, partly her husband's issues. But, they lived a very happy life for many decades and helped out beautifully with their grandchildren (me), learned all sorts of things about gardening, cooking, the outdoors, singing, etc. from her.
We have had a fair number of schizotypal on this board and that doesn't surprise me reading their posts and the way they think. It actually is to their betterment to be engaging anyone about anything and perhaps getting some feedback. (From the patients I have worked with that are schizotypal the majority would have probably been alright if substance abuse had not entered the picture as well as multiple family issues.) Schizoids don't need feedback so much. They mainly need to be left alone to live their lives a bit left or right of center and to be free to be adamant that they are right about most everything. lol. Got to admire that in a way.

Schizoid is not so bad as long as one finds their niche in life and lives it successfully.
Which is among the reasons why I think it's a b.s. "disorder". Just about anything and everything could be a "disorder" by the measures used to make "schizoid" a disorder. Rediculous.
Moreover, I'd say anyone who isn't sufficiently "schizoid" has the "disorder". See also: the moojority.
They mainly need to be left alone to live their lives a bit left or right of center and to be free to be adamant that they are right about most everything. lol. Got to admire that in a way.
It's called independently framed self-esteem; solid individuality via autonomy. There is an edge along which this can taper into self-deluded, but that doesn't make the whole disposition a "disorder". Moreover, so long as they're happy, leave 'em alone. Even if they're not happy, leave 'em alone until they ask for help. And if they ask for help, they're not independent anyhow (there's some underying, internal contradiction at play ... bad thinking ... not a "disorder"; they only "problem" they have is a case of stupidity).

Exactly. Being human is full of all sorts of disorders. Even machines have disorders as we all know. Life is not perfect and neither is anything, but that makes it all the more challenging/interesting, also. I mean, who cares, right? Someone needs to find a cure for copy machine and fax machine disorders though. hah

Which is why I consider the term "disorder" a practical misnomer, nevermind how it's applied being on the edge of an ethical evil. For instance, what "order" is a "disorder" in reference to, exactly? And from whose perspective, per whose benefit?

Machines are different. They are man-made devices, typically intending to serve a particular purpose within/along certain functional parameters -- designed, as such. Hence, this design is the "order' against which a "disorder" (malfunction) can (if not should) be identified and dealt with. No such "design" exists as applies to human behavior, apart from the self-design we ascribe and apply to ourselves (via choice and action). Hence, each individual is the sole originator, keeper, arbiter, executor and evaluator of their own design. As in: a person's business is their own to the exent they're not physically intruding on the business of another (hence, disrupting another's willing design); leave them alone otherwise, regardless of what you think of them (regardless of how far "disordered" they are from your own/some popular/common "order").

Yes, I tend to look at all my general physiological or biological or even personality/mental disorders as typical human malfunctions though. Srsly I do. When placed on a continuum comparative to other humans, it all adds up quite nicely to "quirky and still excellent" really.
Besides, being a bit OCD, a bit hyperactive, definitely gifted, and A.D.D. made graduate school way more fun and came out excellently. hah.
I suspect I posted in this thread already, but as it would have been yonks ago I took the test again:
Paranoid |||||||||||||||| 62% 49%
Schizoid |||||||||||||||||| 78% 53%

Antisocial |||||||||||| 46% 47%

Narcissistic |||||||||| 34% 41%
Avoidant |||||||||| 38% 39%
Dependent |||||| 22% 37%
Obsessive-Compulsive |||||||||||||| 58% 40%
I score fairly high for both Schizotypal and Schizoid, neither of which do I consider are disorders, and neither of which do I consider myself to have.
On the plus side I score low for all the things that I do consider disorders - Histrionic, borderline, narcisstic, avoidant, and (worst of all) dependent.

Schizoid, Schizotypal and Avoidant, which to my thinking is a sign of rude health and psychological balance.

Scrap avoidant. Only the insane would want to interact with the average human. And narcissism wouldn't really be a disorder either, if people would only be more avoidant of each other.

If one goes through life avoiding scraps, then scraps are all one has to live on. If you want things, then you have to fight for them.

If one goes through life avoiding scraps, then scraps are all one has to live on. If you want things, then you have to fight for them.
And yet: why fight idiots for things which hold no glory for you? I avoid all workplace politics and fights by being invisible in an 'diseased' and disordered attitude of avoidance, and yet I feel it is justified. Workplace politics, or indeed politics and competition of all kinds not conducive to an enhancement of human spirit is a competition between piggish philistines for the largest bowl of slop. My true internal response to their assumption that I am interested in climbing their greasy pole of nothingness is the laugh of the nihilist at sisyphus' rock. I have my revenge by quietly robbing them - for in their imbecility deserve such a response has a certain aesthetically valid ring, no less - by forging the appearance of work and effort and getting paid for it - such money then being 'reinvested' in more noble ends of finer learning. The spirit of discovery may be fought against by others, but one's correctness is all that matters. Such people don't deserve to be fought against. And if they wish to actively prevent one's achievements, then ones achievements must fix upon oneself, rather than allow any spillover of one's creations to be of 'unjust' encouragement to the dialectics of myopia.
I welcome the scraps in their authenticity, they usually at the very least have a sadistic originality to them if nothing else. In the scraps one finds the trangressive limits of the human conditions wherein true behaviour emerges, scraps are degrading to all but those with vision, salmon-like geists mottling the brackish waters.
But if one has no desire for things and another struggle between drunken idiots it involves, is that really a disorder? It seems, as Ptah noted, defining a matter as a disorder in these circumstances represents a veiled interest, an attempt to draw our minds away from our blessed solitude and individuality and into the conflicts of the herd. The only things which matter a damn - art, science, valuation, reason, the interfacial tension between them all, philosophy - involve a fight against oneself, and others of such a nobility worth fighting in a manner appropriate. Above all - the churning of irreconcible theories (furies) - in the mix of infinite languages, with no subservience to one. A choice of avoiding others whose valuations are focused with the spirit of the barbarism of modernity is an implicit insult, an act of hostility to them. A rejection of their value and existence.
Better to live on scraps, and indeed such suffering, and loneliness is the making of a true artist, than be slaves of whatever value or wants others wish to impose on you. I reject the fight premised on another's terms. One must only protect one's own stable ego first, and then secondly exploit the idiocy. Most efficaciously through religion, which is why the revelation of its falsities must be hidden from the mob, but a cultivation of internal ironicality within the scientist-artist of the theocratic-capitalist-socialist polities must be rigorously maintained by the elite to avoid a fall into pre-lapsarian corruption. The other must exist in so far as the necessities are concerned, beyond that interaction is to be shunned as the suffocation of black-grey tectonics. Avoidance of other people does not imply avoidance of hardship or struggle, indeed the attempt is actually an amplification of that, and the inherent fight is the constant attempt to keep the corrupting influence of the masses at bay from one's person, and inessentiality distinct from one's interest. It is far harder to be avoidant than vice-versa.
Of course you are right in one sense: intellectual avoidance and fighting are an absolutely necessary part of consciousness and authentic awareness of self. But I refuse to dissipate my energies over matters meaningless to me. I am content to let others fight over will-'o-wisps, and I will watch with pleasure as they mutually kill themselves over it.

I met a person who was actually schizoid... needless to say I doubt I am schizoid anymore. His kind of expressionlessness was frightening.
