Dr. Phil's test. It's pretty accurate for me.

Not that it matters, but anything that needs to validate by saying it's real more than once deserves some skepticism

Dr. Phil bills himself as a "down to earth no nonsense advise" psychological advise giver. Problem is he's so down to earth and his advise is so "no nonsense" that a fortune cookie could give you just about as good a counselling session, and with about the same personality too.

Funny, he should bill himself as an arrogant smarmy fvck who should practice what he preaches.

If you need genuine help go see a real psychologist. Dr Phil's advise isn't going to do jack sh!t for any real problem. And if his advise can solve your problems then you didn't have one to begin with. "Dr Phil I feel like killing myself". "What you need to do little Johny is go home and take up a hobby, go build model air planes. Just take your mind off of this, go read a book. Have a hot bath". Why thanks Dr. Phil why didn't I think of that, funny I don't feel like splattering my brains all over the studio any more!

I got 44, but it doesn't describe me.

Oh, and there's no choice e for number 5, yet the scoring guide has points listed for e.

39 describes me perfectly, but it looks like most everyone is in the 30 or 40 range

31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful and practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over it if that trust is ever broken.

pretty much true
