I remember reading somewhere that your writing style is linked with your personality. Is this something you have heard about and do you know if there is any truth in it?
My style of writing tends to change every day and sometimes will alter drastically in the course of a page. It can be round and short, tall and straight, upright, leaning left, leaning right. . . One of my teachers at school told me this can be a sign of scizophrenia. Should I be worried?

handwriting is linked to personality, ihave heard about it,seen it with a few people too, there is trurh in it.
you dont need to be worried, as your handwriting represents your state of brain at that particular point of time, your handwriting keeps on changing with your mood, this is true.In fact i did like it at first, i also have a site on handwriting, you can check it in my profile ; it does have information about leaning left and right, it is something known as slant in handwriting, left slanters generally hide their feelings from the outer world, while right slanters tend to be more emotional

So is PARANOIA! lol J/K
well, I think it does reflect your personalitly. Handwriting even changes with your moods. This is probably why she said that. Possibly she was joking you?
If mental illness could be diagnosed as simply as that there would be no need for all of the psychological testing and brain scans that are performed all the time for mega money! I know creative people that put alot of curves in their words and shy people who write small and inconspicuous. Sounds like it is true to me.. all except the part about being crazy! LOL
