I think you should take this to a psychiatrist or psychologist and have them give you a one-on-one, person to person evaluation. A web-based test can tell you a few things about yourself, but nothing is as good as seeing a doctor in real life. Good luck!

As said above you really need to show someone from the medical/psychiatric field..such as a doctor, a CPN etc.

How are you feeling today?
