People wth personality disorders/mental illnesses - represent!

<p>I can't believe this thread got started up again- it dates back to 4 years ago!</p>

<p>I'm bulimic. very hardcore. My pshy can't stop me. So that probably means I'm addicted to bulimia.</p>

<p>Wow. I always thought that eating disorders were just overplayed by the media. But judging for this thread (even as old as it is) it's pretty common.</p>

<p>I don't think that I have any mental illnesses/disorders. At least not diagnosed, haha. But then again aren't we all a little crazy? As for social awkwardness etc? Yeah, me. </p>

<p>But just to all the bulimic/anorexic girls/boys out there. I'm a super skinny person who hates being like this. It sucks; I wish I could gain like 40 lbs. It's not fun being mistaken for an anorexic. Although I know you can't really control it; it's a mental condition-- You all don't know how much I envy full-figured girls. Just... if you can, try to stop or reach out for help. Being healthy is the most important.</p>

<p>mental illness is depressing</p>

<p>according to online things, im highly narcissistic and paranoid. but im actually not, i think. slightly arrogant, yes, but that cant be helped</p>

<p>I have never had my mental health evaluated. But I'm narcissistic, anxious, and possess autistic tendencies...</p>

<p>Newsweek</a> Interactive: The Autism Quotient</p>

<p>in fact, i believe that many people of rare intelligence are a little autistic. try the test.</p>

<p>^ I scored a 22. Just barely average.</p>

<p>^^25, i must have serious issues
And I find it very interesting how prevalent eating disorders are on CC.
I have EDNOS as well and have been throwing up/starving myself since the 4th grade yet I have not told anyone except on here (since this is fairly anonymous) but I've been pretty good for the past 4 months or so. I am a normal weight but I probably have some body dysmorphia since when I eat I can physically feel my thighs expanding which seems rather odd.
I used to suffer anxiety and OCD where I would tell my mom that she was a bad parent if she didn't put me to bed at 7:45 every night (I was like 10 years old) and would compulsively wash my hands and such. This was all diagnosed.
I guess I am a fairly perfectionistic person and attempt to study all the time even though I get distracted a lot.</p>

<p>17, average ftw :D</p>

<p>I scored a 30 on that spectrum list thing. Above average. Does that make me almost a mad scientist? YES</p>

<p>I scored 21, somewhat average, lol. No real disorders here, but I am very perfectionistic.</p>

<p>I scored 32. hehe. I don't know- I'm not really a perfectionist. But I am honestly the most socially awkward person this side of the country. some of my friends used to ask me whether I was autistic and I always said i was just weirder than normal and that's probably why they think I may be autistic.</p>

<p>i got a 28</p>

<p>i got a 36 (just over the average for people with Aspergers)...and now I'm worried :(
I knew i was awkward, but not that awkward.</p>

<p>27 (above average) for me</p>

<p>30 (above average)</p>

<p>I could tell in which direction almost every answer would take me, and my extreme answers were pretty evenly distributed, so ehh.</p>

<p>37 Very High</p>

<p>Well that explains a lot.</p>

<p>Messy room disorder? Loves food and hates exercise disorder? Shopping addict. No...nevermind then...</p>

<p>32... heh</p>

<p>I've got ADHD and Depersonalization..</p>

<p>i have an anxiety disorder. im getting better at dealing with it though. no panic attacks at school so far this year :)</p>
