I think it's been a little while since we've had one of these threads. So let's do it. Like diagnosing oneself with cancer via WebMD, let's go ahead and see what we've got for personality disorders.
I don't think I have any room left for further diagnosis. The ones that I initially figured I have turned out to be the case.
You can take the Similar Minds test here to see what other cluster symptoms you might have.

Go here to prove you're a "real sociopath" or even here for a list of contrived symptoms to check.
You have reached 4 of 25 points, (16%).
Anybody else want to narc-out? Let's do this shit with the narcissist test.
Your score is 6, out of 40.
Where are our psychopaths at? Hiding as usual? I guess we can find out with this link to a psychopathy test.
Your score from primary psychopathy has been calculated as 4.2. Primary psychopathy is the affective aspects of psychopathy; a lack of empathy for other people and tolerance for antisocial orientations.
Your score from secondary psychopathy has been calculated as 2.1. Secondary psychopathy is the antisocial aspects of psychopathy; rule breaking and a lack of effort towards socially rewarded behavior.
I liked the Similar Minds one as it featured uncommon questions, so did the second test. Third was a waste of time since I don't think that agreeing with the statements given has to do anything with being disordered. It's more like a Trump-like philosophy than anything. NPD one was alright but needed some middle ground options, e.g. for the "I expect a great deal from other people / I like to do things for other people". Levenson is an old goodie, which could actually be updated. I'd say that a well made and properly done test could be reliable, but some stimulus to focus and be honest is also a relevant factor. Best case, it should feature an option of providing answers by yourself, instead of selecting, but it's a slightly different puppy. I remember how we were doing some test in this psychology after class class and I kept whining how the choices given were bollocks.
Anyway, I liked the SM the most, so I shall probe it a little bit.
Seems reasonable to cut the results below 40%.
The summaries:
Paranoid Personality Disorder (41) - individual generally tends to interpret the actions of others as threatening; preoccupied with suspiciousness/paranoia. They are stuck between their need for others and their mistrust of others.
I used to take everything that came from others with a huge grain of salt, especially praise. I also have a habit of limiting the information given, e.g. any new belonging I get tends to be hid for as much as possible from the eyes of people with whom I interact more frequently, whether it would be a phone, tablet, etc. If it's something visible, like a watch, I tell them about it straight away and move on. I don't feel entirely comfortable when people go all "ooh, new tablet. noice" and am rather secretive. I get this "it's mine! Fuck off!" reflex or something. Moreover, same thing used to apply to a significant extent in SC too. You can find me ranting about the uselessness of sharing any pics in this forum in the Doge avi thread. My first personal share ever was eye pic and not soon after I was poked for keeping it like that with the teasing assumption that I probably have a huge nose. Anyhow, it changed after a while. All things considered, I'm not surprised by the score as it indeed is relevant. I think I would've scored much more a year or two before.
Schizoid Personality Disorder (46) - individual generally detached from social relationships, and shows a narrow range of emotional expression in various social settings; emotional zombies who stopped feeling due to trauma(s) and/or can't feel due to organic depression
I'm pretty much neutral content until the situation demands me to put on a particular 'mood face', I had taken part in acting, psychology, finance (oriented on the interpersonal interactions) classes, though my genuine moods are fairly limited. Nevertheless, I happen to have 11 people in my disposal whom I can surely consider good and loyal buddies and I wasn't traumatized nor am I depressed. Well, at least to my knowledge. Well, I did had a hard time dealing with my parents..
Antisocial Personality Disorder (63) - individual shows a pervasive disregard for, and violation of, the rights of others; Preoccupied with disdain/contempt for others and often a need for control/power over others.
Been there, done that.
Borderline Personality Disorder (41) - individual shows a generalized pattern of instability in interpersonal relationships, self-image, and observable emotions, and significant impulsiveness. Core issue is an inability to regulate emotions.
Seems to add up to the SPD summary in some aspects.
Avoidant Personality Disorder (53) - individual is socially inhibited, feels inadequate, and is oversensitive to criticism. Core issue is an inability to resolve their codependent need for connection with their codependent fear of rejection and/or discomfort/anxiety around others.
Seems unlikely, but features big score, so I should do some pondering.
Dependent Personality Disorder (44) - individual shows an extreme need to be taken care of that leads to fears of separation, and passive and clinging behavior. Core issue is the need to be parented by others (i.e. avoid growing up / becoming self-sufficient).
I don't really feel the need to be taken care of by anyone, including me (and boy do I suck at managing my condition when being ill), but the passive and clinging behavior can be somewhat relevant. I mean, I prefer receiving as much as I invest into a relationship, thus not having similar feedback can make me either become more pushy or step back a notch, depending on the desire to take part in the said interaction.
Have to go now, will do some summary, etc., later.
