Personality disorder checkin

I don't usually have a paranoid rating this high. Some of it is genuine yes-they-are-talking-about-me; some of it is sheer paranoia and I know it, and I've been working on chilling myself back down.

I can feel my mental stability and health fluctuate. I have taken baselines, and I know what contains my sanity, where the borders are. Others have reviewed me, and told me what they think the problem areas are, which gives me a very nice reality check. I can almost make it to payday on that much.

DisorderRating
Paranoid:High
Schizoid:Low
Schizotypal:Moderate
Antisocial:Low
Borderline:Low
Histrionic:Moderate
Narcissistic:Moderate
Avoidant:Low
Dependent:Moderate
Obsessive-Compulsive:Moderate

My Paranoia Button

I generally am fairly easygoing and not paranoid, although sometimes I get very worried/upset that something I did caused someone to start reacting differently to me.

Generally the only thing that works to snap me out of this is reassurance from the person in question, or (more frequently) reminding myself that I'm not the center of everyone's life and everybody has problems they have to deal with.

In a H2G2 sort of way, this reminds me of my place in the universe and I feel better.
