I had my mesh mirrored correctly at first but then I decided to work on the hand in a different layer (Two) and then copy past it back to layer 1. I then selected both meshes and pressed Ctrl+J to merge the 2 into 1 in object mode. However I forgot to apply the mirror modifier before merging the 2 (not that I thought that would matter) and the mirror modifier disappeared so I go on to connect the hand to the arm in edit mode change back to object mode select all and add another mirror modifier.

I've tried all Axis and they all seem to be mirroring weirdly in a diagonal fashion.

Things I've tried already

I've selected all vertices that run along the center from top to bottom on the Z axis then Pressed Shift+S and selected "Cursor To Selected" followed by Shift+Ctrl+Alt+C selected "Origin to 3D Cursor" and still have the same results.

Is very likely that you have the object rotated in one or more axis. You can do 2 things (as far as I know):

  1. Apply the rotation (keeping the current visual orientation): press, while in object mode, Ctrl+A and then select rotation.

    enter image description here

  2. Set the rotation values to 0 (this will rotate the object to a different orientation): in the object properties menu, in the transform tab set all the rotation values to 0.
