Pooh Bear Pathology Test!
I was originally going to call this the Pooh Pathology test, just like what the test is called, but then I had second thoughts; kinda gives off the wrong vibes if you know what I mean. I saw the link on my Twitter feed and thought it looked interesting, so I decided to spend roughly 10 minutes of downtime taking the test! You'll answer 33 questions and be matched up with which Winnie the Pooh character you most resemble. Basically, it's a comparative personality test. All of the main characters are featured as well as their own "diagnosis". It's based off popular mental health theories about the characters. It's not a true test to gauge mental health, so if you feel concerned by the results, are looking for more information or are troubled by the questions reach out to a therapist or mental health professional; even a GP can help you get the resources you need if you find yourself in doubt. It's better to ask questions beforehand, you know. Mental health is just as important as physical health. Now that we've got that out of the way, let's play!
I'm going to share a few of the questions here, my answer and then my result at the end. I have a good idea of who I'm going to get anyway, knowing me, but let's do this. So, for this, you read the questions and select a red or green thumbs up to select your degree of agreeance or non-agreement to the proposed question.

Question 1:
I frequently lose things, forgetting where I put my stuff.
Uh, yes, yes I do. I forget where I put my work shit all the time, I set my phone down and can never find it and Christ knows that I'm forever losing socks.

Question 2:
My thoughts have a tendency to run in strange loops and dwell on weird themes, and I wish I could get rid of these.
Well, there are times when I don't want to get rid of them, as there are times when they're entertaining, but they do go to weird loops. Sometimes they just bring me to places I'd rather not go and leave me with hollow or uneasy feelings. There are times when I can will them away, but sometimes I can't and they just consume me. They distract me and I'm unable to perform like I'm expected to and need to. It's kind of a problem.

Question 3:
I am uncomfortable around strangers and sometimes fantasize that they will hurt me.
Well, I am socially awkward. I'm anxious and unsettled in groups of new people, especially when I have no control at all. If anything, my last job experience really spoke to that. It took me so long to become somewhat comfortable, I was almost there a year before I started to get into the grove, then I left. Based on my experience of people hurting me, I do think that most people are out to get me. It's not really paranoia if it's based on what almost everyone has ever done to me.
Question 4:
I take care to spend my money wisely so that I can handle any unforeseen situation.
AH, well no, not really. I should think more about this, but I don't. I get distracted and the need to fill the void inside calls out to me and I try and fill it with shiny things or things that make me happy. They don't always make me happy, but they make me feel a little less lonely. It's a strange occurrence. Then I remember that it's cost me money and my anxiety level rises and I feel worse than before, scrambling to fix things before they cascade.
Question 5:
I am under-sensitive to social cues and the prospect of danger.
I'm not really under-sensitive to social cues, I just don't care about them. Most of the time they're not really based on instinct or experience, but empty, fake personas and ideals of niceness. The prospect of danger? There's danger everywhere and I don't want to get too caught up in thinking about it, otherwise, it will control me, and when you have issues with anxiety, it's kinda best to keep that stuffed down. Do I put myself in dangerous situations on purpose? No. Do I miss some aspect of social cues? Sure. Doesn't everyone?

And the results are:
Oh wow. Didn't expect one of these. Let's take a look at the results and explore them a little bit. Eeyore. I'd love to say what the fuck, but that I totally get. Chronic depression, hopeless and has given up on the idea that there are better things out there. That sounds like me. I do have some happy days and I do sometimes have a positive outlook, though default it is negative. Let's see who else is in- 90% Christopher Robin, Pooh and Piglet...anxiety (yes), ADD (no, not really) and what the fuck- schizophrenia? Fuck that no, it's bipolar and it's different. I can see the anxiety thing, I'm kind of an anxious kinda guy. I worry a lot, about everything. ADD? No, I daydream a lot because I want to avoid things. My attention jumps around from time to time, sometimes it's hard to focus, but it depends on what state I'm in. I guess that's how the Christopher Robin part comes in, they do have a few similarities.
I don't really know how to feel about this, it was fun to do, gave me a few minutes of distraction, but I didn't really learn anything from it. Was I really supposed to tho?
