I used to have two other "consciences" in my head. We would converse with each other often. Entertain each other. Comfort each other. We were the best of friends. Then one day something horrible happened in my life, and I blamed them. With a lot of meditation I forced them to keep silent, now wishing I have not.

Without them I have nobody I can talk to about my problems. I force all my hate and anger inward, only to churn and churn and eventually develop into rage. It has been hinted that I do have SPD before, but what do they know? How can they freely label me thinking I will accept their label?

I am myself, undefinable by an overly sized book on psychology and psychiatry. I'm not going to let a book tell me who I am, or a person who claims to utilize the aforementioned book as a tool.

Here are my results. I would consider the labels all accurate except for the Narcissism. The only narcissist trait I exhibit is the fact that I am better than most of those around me.:

Disorder | Rating
Paranoid: Very High
Schizoid: Very High
Schizotypal: High
Antisocial: Low
Borderline: Low
Histrionic: Low
Narcissistic: Moderate
Avoidant: Low
Dependent: Low
Obsessive-Compulsive: Low
Hip

Dude, psychology cant cure you, it can only try to describe your behavior (as you said, label) and hope that if you can recognize that you got a problem that you might help yourself.

But seriously man, if you actually hear voices like you say then you ARE psychotic. I believe i got SPD and you dont see me talking to imaginary friends...

Ill try not to sound too cruel when I say: get a hobby and make some friends. There are probably plenty schizotypals you could click with. Im by myself all the time and I have no problem with it, but you dont appear to benefit from being lonely so you should... I dunno, make some effort and try to enjoy life.
