Do you mean you took the sanity score test that is here on psych central and that was your results.....
one thing about tests like this they do not diagnose you with these things. they tell you possible problem areas that you may want to look closer into.
they only tell you how you answered the questions .............at the moment............ that you took the tests.
if you look at the bottom of every page here in psych central you will see a disclaimer that says
"The material on this site is for informational purposes only, and is not a substitute for medical advice,
diagnosis or treatment provided by a qualified health care provider.
Always consult your doctor or mental health professional before trying anything you read here."
in other words nothing here on psych central is going to diagnose you and your problems, to find out what you actually have you will need to contact a treatment provider.
my suggestion is if it bothers you to take the sanity score then maybe now isnt the time to play around with it. I say play around with it because thats what its for, for us to play around with and see what comes up and if we really want to know if we are those things to contact a doctor.
the only people that can actually tell you whether you have CEN and the other stuffor not is a psychiatrist or therapist off the computer in your own town or nearest city that has psychiatrists and therapists that you call up, schedule an appointment with then go in for a talk and many tests, not just one. then they will tell you if you have CEN and the other stuff or not.
also something you may not know I usually take online tests many times and come up with many different scores. sometimes even end up with things that I dont have and impossible for me to have given my gender or race or culture lol .
my point dont panic when taking online tests they dont really diagnose anything, they just tell you how you answered the questions at that moment that you answered them. thats it.
