Sometimes I see the most ferocious beast I could ever imagine, though I did imagine it.
I should probably see a doctor.

I've looked in the mirror and not recognized my face. had to get really close to make it look like me.

the question that freaked me out the most was the one about hearing your own thoughts. I only recently found out that's not normal. I've talked inside my head my whole life and couldn't imagine how horrible it must be to not hear your own thoughts. seems to me it would be rather quiet & lonely. might also explain why I have no brain-mouth barrier.

only reason I even took the test is my paternal uncle is severely schizophrenic... can't be a member of society even if he's medicated. now I'm just freaking myself out. sixty freaking five.

Well, I'm not going to lie, I do sometimes feel I am telepathically communicating, but I know it's not true so I ignore it. I have terribly disorganised speech and thought (hence my signature), but I know my "paranoia" is not unfounded. I know everyone's not out to get me, but I know they don't like me (but I don't know why ) and it's naive to think they don't b***h about me sometimes. AS fits my symptoms more closely though.

some of the questions were extremely repetitive imo. it asked like 5 times if i thought everyone was out to get me.. O-o and like 5 times if i didn't like talking to strangers... O-o and like 8 times if i was a weirdo... -_- it just used dif words to say the same thing... meh.

so... what does my score mean, anyways?

I got over 40.

I think I could score even higher on a more thorough test though. Most of the listed examples don't literally apply to me but other related things not present on the quiz do. I don't hear voices or see signs in things, for instance, but I do get a lot of weird feelings of synchronicity and "hidden depth" that I can't put into words. As a kid I had some weird magical beliefs and related OCD-like rituals.

FWIW, here's my score on it:

Suspiciousness: 3.5 out of 8 (unsure: 0)
Total SPQ-A: 32.5 out of 74

EDIT: In hindsight, I would have scored somewhat less that what appears to be a median score on this test if I didn't have social anxiety and suspiciousness from being taken advantage of and used/abused repeatedly. --This does have a cumulative effect as I quite often wonder how I'm going to f**k up in any given social situation

you took my link down? did you even click through to see it was a perfect copy of the original site? i suppose you'll delete this too. time to find some other, more openminded community.
