If you already have a therapist and you are already under treatment then I agree you should. But if you don't, then I'd oppose, as I've seen tougher results and they hadn't been to one. Maybe this forum could help a little.
But what would I know? I'm not an expert, nor near such level. Good luck though.

unsure101 you seem fine, my only guess is you might be a bit reactive to breaks in attachment or relationships etc, or maybe a bit possessive. But I dunno.

luke why did you post this in this thread, start your own. But anyways, needing help isn't the issue. Unless you're doing illegal things or causing yourself or others distress... No. Only thing this test might reliably show (assuming answers are honest and informed), are traits of a person... not a whole disorder. The test is too polarized to take into account variety.

I suppose I will post mine, as honestly as I could answer. Please, don't take this seriously though in terms of describing me.
