Did they actually use the term disorder with personality, or were they referring just to your personality traits? It can be useful to identify one's traits, even if they do not reach the disorder range. It's still labeling, but it's not a diagnosis of an Axis II disorder. This means the traits are less firmly entrenched, are less maladaptive, and cause less severe problems.

And yes, depressed and anxious...good ol' scales 2 and 7 on the MMPI. At times I felt like if someone didn't come up with those then the test was noteworthy.
