    Thanks I kinda been questioning myself about something,Everytime I panic but I mean panic alot I start crying out of nowhere and it's like if my head started spinning but even if I'm crying I'm loughfing at first I just thought it was a regular panic attack but then I started doubting myself so I thought it could be a personality disorder

    What a load of bullshit. I took the test and apparently I have all 10 disorders! I am ‘ suspicious’ of others due to the extreme child abuse I endured and kept secret for decades! I do not believe in magic or the paranormal. I am an atheist, I prefer evidence based logic, I have never had my palms read or believe in the healing properties of crystals. I attempted suicide to end my pathetic life, I did not wish to be resuscitated in the icu, then be called a ‘ drama queen’ . I cry all the time worrying about others and trying to help them. I have never been arrested nor do I have a criminal record. I hated my wedding day because all eyes were on me ‘ the bride’ I spent much of my wedding day hiding in the toilets. I hate photos, and the ones I do have I am not smiling in any of them. By the age of 16 years old, I had gall stones, I was mute, unable to make friendships or relationships because my brain was so full of anxiety I could not speak. I spent my school years avoiding it. I was born female in a culture that repressed, abused, shamed, humiliated, neglected our views and achievements. I was the 1st in my family’s generation to get a degree. No one in my family came to my graduation and my aunt said to me” no man will marry you now’. I was left alone locked in hot cars for hours, my parents would forget to pick me up from catholic religious instructions 8pm at night, no one left in the car park, no teacher or phone just waiting alone in the dark every week. I was beaten daily for spilling my water, or walking on the carpet with my shoes on. I was not allowed to go to parties, sleepovers or school camps. I watched my mother get beaten everyday and as I got older both my father and mother beat me. In my parents house every single photo is of them on holiday. No photos of their grandchildren, my son has Autism, and hasn’t left in room in years, but my parents don’t believe in Autism they think he is spoiled and lazy and call him a loser. When I was 12 my mother found my journal with doodles of puppies, butterflies and a boys name who I thought was cute but had never approached or spoken to. My parents took me to a doctor straight away to verify if my hymen was intact! There are much much worse things I endured. I can’t keep a relationship because in my 10 + years of treatment no one has ever asked me.
    This personality disorder is bullshit. The patient should first have a cognitive test to make sure he she understands and comprehends the questions. Secondly every question I answered immediately related to my abusive childhood. The test made me look like a female Ted Bundy, or overdramatic Charlie Sheen screaming ‘Tiger Blood’. Do I feel better now that I have been diagnosed as cluster A? No it has made me upset, cannot stop crying everything is my fault. We who suffer from mental illness need kindness, compassion and someone who is willing to listen.
    Would you tell a diabetic thats its their bloody fault they have diabetes, to pull their socks up, stop being overdramatic about your insulin. No because they have biomarkers. Tangible evidence by blood tests. What do we get? This DMV5 crock of shit I might as well start reading my star sign ( when I find out what it is for a more ‘ accurate reading of my personality. With the use of perception and assumptions I was diagnosed cluster A. Shame on all you ‘ scientists and doctors ‘ who agree on this bullshit zodiac chart

    Don't narcissists actually have small and fragile egos? The narcissist's divorce from the true self is meant to protect what's left of the ego from further damage.

    All of us have this problem. We have hundreds of personalities. Religion called them capital sin…. We have a lazy personality, a lust personality, an envy personality so on and so on…. In the Tibet they called them Psychological aggregates, ancient egyptians called them red demons. Us we call it ego, This word comes from latin which means " I ".

    Each personality/Ego takes turn throughout the day in controlling us, This is the reason we are 3% consciousness and 97% ego. And when each invade our psychic, They always take complete control of our thoughts, Feelings, Body.

    We just need to look into our everyday life to find hundreds of examples but I will give a few so we understand a little bit better. When the "anger ego" takes control of our body…. Some one hits us in the face. Immediately the ego takes control of our feelings, we start cursing him mentally and feeling like we need to throw a rock at his face "How dare this Piece of shit does this to me, Im gonna kill him"… Eventually, (some wrongly think these changes happen at the same time, but they are wrong) It takes control of our thoughts and we start thinking on how to attack him, After it will take control of our body or motor skills and we will end up throwing punches or any other physical outcome… Of course, each human is different, We all have the same ego but some will have them in a lower level of they mind or some of them in a higher level of their mind (The mind is composed of 49 levels) In this situation or example the anger ego came out, But in another person the ego of fear could take place…

    This is the reason when these aggregates take control of a man that found out his wife was cheating on him and ended up stabbing her, When he is getting interrogated by the police a lot of time they say the same phrase "It wasn't me… I don't remember…. They cry not understanding what happened , Etc etc"

    In order to awaken or consciousness we need to eradicate each psychological aggregate. How? Luckily for us, we might eliminate at least 50% of it by ourselves… The other 50% Can only be done by Kundalini Shakti, or how christians called it our virgin mary, This is only possible throughout alchemy.

    It is a shame that we are walking in this earth completely asleep. Completely controlled by our ego therefore we cannot see our past lives… We cannot see the elementals of this earth… We cannot see the other dimensions of space…. Etc Etc Etc ETC. But most important WE CANNOT SEE OUR INDIVIDUAL FATHER. Each one of us have a father, this is a small percentage of GOD inside us. When we awaken our consciousness we are able to see him in the astral world (unfortunately, we do not even remember what did we even dreamt yesterday, MUCH LESS we will be able to go into the astral world being conscious) . He will be able to manifest himself throughout us and perform REAL MIRACLES.

    Lucky for us we have the energy to wake up from these awful state inside us.

    Lucky for us Samael Aun Weor revealed all the secrets for us. He is the perfect example to understand this is COMPLETELY POSSIBLE & TRUTH.

    Me myself in the name of truth could tell you I HAVE VERIFIED THIS MY SELF (OF COURSE haven't seen my father or made contact with him YET, THE MAGNUM OPUS takes your whole life to complete.. but been able to eliminate some aggregates and been able to go in the 5th dimension or astral world conscious )

    Please find out the truth and start the path NOW. Let me point you in which direction to go and you follow your heart. I promise you this is the best gift the divine and our older brothers could have given us. THE TRUTH.

    Many are lost, buddhism, christianity, religion, masonry, Witchcraft, Black magic, "Spiritual teachers" etc etc…. Are lost. They have lost themselves. All there is is EGO. And a blind person cannot help another blind person to see.

    I am more than happy to answer you ANY QUESTION. Regarding any topic, that the pseudoscience cannot answer. Any question that religion cannot explain.

    We have a well of wisdom that we all could drink from… The same well people like Jesus, Confucius, Lao Tze, Buddha, Samael Aun Weor, Pitagoras etc etc Drank from…

    I relate to schizoid and obsessive compulsive personality disorders. I’m too scared to tell my mental health professional if they think I’m crazy for being like this. I’m scared of diagnosis as well.

  24. @berniefynn6623 on

    WHY isn't homosexuality and transition a recognised disorder? are you gutless to stand up and bring this out in the opem, homosexuals and trans use hate speech and intimidation, so if natural, why do this.

  26. @YoungRicochet on

    Feels bad A is my life. I probably think of myself way more highly then anyone else would as well but I'm very humble and care deeply for those that are close to me.
    thnx for the video🖤🌹

    That’s not where the term antisocial came from, it means anti society, as in we don’t fit into social standards or norms well, not that we don’t like to be social.

  31. @35mm_DREAM on

    Why are some of them classified into disorders as they can easily develop in anyone at any stage of life for a period of time as an outcome of certain circumstance

  36. @EmbraceTerror on

    'how they are you expected to behave'. Who was put in charge of deciding how I should behave and why wasn't I invited to those discussions as I might believe how I behave is normal and others' ways are not.
