A few days ago I did a pseudo-scientific personality test. The results scared the crap out of me even though it was just an internet test (who believes those?), and doesn't have the same scientific rigour as 'What Star Wars character are you?' or 'What Romantic Poet are you?'. After I have gotten many others to do the test, and even publish the results online, I feel safe in the warm nest of nut jobs I call my friends.

General Note: the validity and reliability of DSM personality disorders are still lacking in strong statistical evidence and clear agreement in the scientific and medical community. They are determined by the American Psychiatric Association and will likely be revised in the future.
Author Note:I don't think Schizoid personality is a valid disorder (read), some of the smartest people in history were schizoid because they occupied a remote end of the intelligence bell curve. Schizotypal personality can encompass highly original thinkers as well as totally insane people so I think it's a flawed type. I think the remaining eight disorders are generally valid.
