Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is an introspective self-report questionnaire indicating differing psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions. The test attempts to assign four categories: introversion or extraversion, sensing or intuition, thinking or feeling, judging or perceiving.
>your type INTP >how do you defy your type's stereotypes? i talk to people a decent amount during my day. listen more than i talk, though. r9k INTP stereotypes concerned, have had sex, have a job, gone to bars, have a few friends, done lots of normie things. i don't enjoy them, but i do them just because it's not like there's much else to do in life to be honest. >what thing have you done in your life that was most unlike your type? i don't know.
>your type INFJ >how do you defy your type's stereotypes? Im EVIL. FUCKED UP. FRicked in the HEAD!! >what thing have you done in your life that was most unlike your type? Be impulsively violent
that's to hear! I'm glad you finally moving on with your life. It must feel like a massive boulder was lifted from your shoulders.

Wow! This was an interesting (but expected to happen at some point) turn of events. All I can say is... I'm happy for you! ^_^ This made me wonder, though, if you'll become an -A type someday...
And for the rest of /mbti/: I might come back when I'm in a better situation and mood! I'll try to reply to every post and answer every question directed at me that I've missed then! ^_^;7
istp i looked up what the ISTP stereotypes are. >mechanic guilty >craftsmen not so much >into extreme sports guilty, i skate and freedive. >lack morals and values not at all. i have very strong sense of what i think is right and wrong. i just also think that a majority of things are neither. >emotionless i closed off the part of me that engages with the world in emotional ways a long time ago, which might be a common trait for ISTPs. maybe it's something we do without thinking, or we find the emotional part of our being to not combine well with the rest, and push it away without a second thought, but i think it silently influences the rest of us, and i'm going to make an effort to recover that aspect of myself starting from now. i was thinking about it, and i decided that i would never let anyone else do something like cut off my hand and keep it from the rest of me, so i shouldn't let myself cut off a part of me either. >cool mysterious loners i am not cool, but i have been told i'm strange or make no sense, so that might be qualified as mysterious. i am very alone. >rebellious it's something like control claustrophobia. if i feel like i don't have a choice in something, i feel the need to fight it. i hate having to fight though, so i am not joyfully rebellious, i just can't live with the knowledge that i have no freedom. >silent and serious i am stoic, yes. >what thing have you done that is most unlike your type probably holding my spiritual beliefs
i have never felt solitude in a positive sense. alone has always meant alone with my thoughts, which aren't always my own. last night, for the first time in my life, i went to sleep and didn't have a nightmare.
i hope i will become stable one day. i haven't been here for some threads so idk why you're leaving but good luck with whatever you are facing that is getting you down.
I am prone to depersonlisation, especially when stressed.
One time when I was a teen, my driving instructor kept on shouting at me and I basically blipped from reality, you know, driving 50mph at a roundabout and whatever. Common simple things became extremely difficult and I basically felt somewhat cool in immense danger due to my lack of an emotional reaction due to autism
Now that I think about it, I have always been pretty chill in the face of death, usually caused by my lack of focus or my head being in the clouds.
What type is prone to depersonlisation, and what functions does my issues sound like?
>for the first time in my life, i went to sleep and didn't have a nightmare. exaggeration?

>i have never felt solitude in a positive sense. feels liberating, doesn't it? >last night, for the first time in my life, i went to sleep and didn't have a nightmare. that's good to hear. Did you have a pleasant dream or no dreams at all? >probably holding my spiritual beliefs that's interesting what's sort of spirtual beliefs do you hold?
We're pretty cringe, overall. But to the right person, we're based. My GF calls me 'extra' all the time because I'm dramatic and over the top. She thinks it's fucking hilarious and dotes on me constantly. So, I will always put in prodigious amounts of effort, because she gets me. The dramatic flair isn't really something to worry about, it's something to have fun with. But yeah. Cheesy. Cringe. Extra. But if we like you, we can be counted upon to make the relationship work.
>your type INFP >how do you defy your type's stereotypes? I can listen to criticism without taking it personally. I know when not to sugar-coat it. >what thing have you done in your life that was most unlike your type? All of my jobs. They were always blue collar-- Heavy equipment operator, railway conductor, Sheet metal worker, service mechanic, process operator. I'm horribly unsuited for these types of environments, but I do it anyways because the sectors I would be stronger in have SHIT pay. And nothing is cheap these days, feel me?
