Tests like this usually aren't completely accurate. They're only meant to give some insight.

which is why I don't recommend taking it. I believe it gives more paranoia than insight

if you believe you have any of these disorders, go and seek professional help.

I believe in the power of suggestion, so taking an inaccurate test that tells you you have something you don't can cause you to act like you have it

but like that's just my opinion man......

Mine were all slight to moderate. I think it could be based on what information they asked, and also that I have been taking antidepressants and had other previous treatment.

They don't exactly tell you that you have something or other. They tell you how likely it is based on your answers. There's usually some sort of disclaimer stating that it's a tool, not a diagnosis.

Major Depression - Moderate
Dysthymia - Slight
Bipolar Disorder - Slight
Cyclothymia - Moderate
Seasonal Affective Disorder - Extremely High

I'm surprised I scored extremely high on seasonal affective disorder, as I haven't noticed a difference in my mood in the different seasons... I like all seasons! I have a feeling the reason I scored so high on it is because I live so far north. Kinda annoying, when even an automatic test start to make assumptions like that.

I kind of knew all of this already. 😛
Though the Seasonal Affective/Bipolar results are bull****, I know that. I am not bipolar, and season's don't usually change my attitude towards things.
