That's true. For example, the question of whether you like or hate winter affects your Seasonal Affective Disorder, which is kinda stupid, you can hate any season for a number of particular reasons.

Interesting quiz...

Major Depression: High-Moderate
Dysthymia: Moderate
Bipolar Disorder: Extremely High
Cyclothymia: Very High
Seasonal Affective Disorder: Moderate
Postpartum Depression: N/A

It's somewhat accurate to a degree. The results mostly show the extreme sides of it though.

I scored very high in cyclothymia. Everything else was very slight or slight. Now to find out what that means...

Yeah, fair enough. Though it seemed to get results from questions that I was half and half about, like excessive confidence. Looking at the tell tale symptoms I would disagree with the diagnosis.

Also I believe that the human brain is far too complex to really understand, and personally I believe that a person cures depression by making a conscious effort to be positive about their life, and taking action and being proactive, rather than taking drugs or paying disturbing amounts of money to psychologists. That's just me.

Major Depression: Slight
Dysthymia: Slight-Moderate
Bipolar: High-Moderate
Cyclothymia: Moderate
Seasonal Affective: Very Slight

Very interresting. I would have thought seasonal would be higher, but then again I hate the weather here year round...

Major Depression: Extremely High
Dysthymia: Very High
Bipolar Disorder: Slight
Cyclothymia: Moderate
Seasonal Affective Disorder: High
Postpartum Depression: N/A

Although I usually take tests like this with a pinch of salt, Id say these results are accurate. Not that I know what Dysthymia, or Cyclothymia is, I'll need to look that up. lol

Maybe if you took it before your cat died, you wouldn't be that depressed?

Amusing test I think.

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

Not entirely sure what to do with the results though..or what to make of them.

Here is what I scored:
Major Depression: High

Cannot do this right now.

I'm being sarcastic. It's clearly not something to be content about. But I'm also being light-hearted about it, because I don't recognize the validity of such tests, so there's no point of me taking it to heart.

Major Depression: Slight

Surprisingly accurate.

Oh well, nothing unexpected, nothing I didn't know. I'd actually have preferred a schizoid personality test. And by the way, I love winter, it is the only season that I truly adore

Major depression-slight-moderate
dysthymia-slight
bi-polar-very high
cyclothymia-extremely high
S.A.D-very slight
seems right... once i find out what cyclothymia is...

To answer a big question in this thread - "Cyclothymic Disorder is a chronic bipolar disorder consisting of short periods of mild depression and short periods of hypomania. These symptoms may last a few days to a a number of weeks. The onset is separated by short periods of normal mood. Individuals with cyclothymia are never totally free of symptoms of either depression or hypomania for more than a number of months at a time."

Maybe more drugs are the answer...
