Personality Tests

I'm curious what bipolar individuals think of personality tests.

First off, I love taking personality tests. However, my personality varies so much, that I usually struggle to pick an answer.

For example, I go through periods where I am
Aggressive, hostile, uncaring, narcissistic, perfectionistic, retentive, dominant, and energetic.

And I go through periods where I am
Passive, hopeless, anti-social (borderline reclusive), empathetic, and disorganized

Each time I take one, I question which trait I should select since both often apply (but not at the same time).

I guess my neutral personality is somewhere in the middle, but even that can change. I have a feeling most of you can identify

Anyway, to my point:
I was wondeirng if any of you like personality tests, or if you find them difficult to take (like me).

Also, there is a very cool personality test at similarminds.com. It's free, informal, and pretty fun. I thought I'd post my results, and I was curious to read yours if any of you feel like taking it.

Here's the link:

Here's my results. If any of you are interested, you should post yours.
