Get a free mental health analysis

Posted by Deneb on June 30, 2009, at 7:06:01

I found a link to Mindsite from PC. Check it out. It is kind of long though, takes like 25 mins for some people, less if you don't have any disorders.

I found it didn't take into consideration whether the problems are current or not and it doesn't have anything about personality disorders. It says I have panic disorder, social anxiety and bulimia.

I had panic disorder as a child, but I don't think I have it anymore. Also I used to have bulimia, but not anymore. I just have social anxiety.

It also missed my biggest disorder of all, the borderline personality.

Anyways, don't let it diagnose you or anything, it's just a neat quiz to take.

I had also though I'd had depression in the past, but nope, it says I wasn't depressed long enough to have real depression. I guess it's just the borderline mood swings then.

Yeah - maybe curiosity.

I think I'd take the results with a grain of salt, myself.

How do you do this thing?

I thought it would be great to fail another test or at least score highly on all the DSM categories, which share with those of astrology the rate of cure if not the cultural charm, though speaking personally, I'd go for the I Ching.

But it asked me for $39.
It's always fun to be ripped off but I like to have a conversation with the person who does it.

Hmmm...I guess they just started charging people for it. Oh well, it wasn't that great of a test anyways.
