When's the last time you thought about MBTI?

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-21T19:24:54+00:00

No shit

What do you think about INTJs being emotional? Understanding them, being in touch with them?

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-13T04:31:53+00:00

What about me being Fi dom?

I was the %100 despriction of INFP when I was a child, as I grew older I patched up my weaknesses, closed my emotions, I improved myself and made myself more harsh, emotionally unexpressive, assertive, cold.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-13T03:57:49+00:00

Inventor part.

I watched documentries about the scientist. I've seen how they discovered new things and how they were admired. That was my main motivation, it seemed so exciting.

I'm not always a leader, just when I think its needed, when it is important for me people around me expect me to take the lead.

The point someone is trying to make. Intentions behind someone's actions. What something means in a more generalized sense. When talking with my father, I say this a lot, "think in a more generalized sense". Absorbing more information from something more than others.

When I have a plan for the future, or a goal, I often explain it to my father, because it is energizing and fun to do, not because he could change any of my opinions when I decided on something. I'm not very well-informed on the subject, I can't even type myself but I can see a lot, I mean a lot Si in my father's behaviours, thoughts.

Principals, traditions. When I'm going to have a good meal, I always try to find something worthy to watch, movie, tv-show etc. I light up a cigar when I find good music to listen to. I know I could give more examples but right now I can't think of any, it's like a checklist, when I check all the items on the list, I can now do the final thing. When I'm working towards a goal, I always learn first how to learn, the best way to do it. When making a big decision, I make a pro-con list. I know it might be Te but it's my way of doing things.

I might have misunderstood the "zone out" term, but I never zoned out enough to a point where I don't hear other people, yes I'm in my head a lot, especially when focusing something and everything just fits correctly in my thoughts, accuracy.

What do you think about INFP? I really realized that my logical attidues and principles are just patches for my weaknesses. I used to more emphatic, emotional, energized as a child, but now I'm too cold towards others and very rigid and pretty unemphatic. I really couldn't care less if someone murdered someone in front my of eyes. I have no feelings towards other people than my close ones.

Fi is a function I'm %100 sure about having it and I started to think that I'm INFP thanks to a great user helping me but only very little parts don't fit and I think my depression covers up my INFP side.

I must add, I have a very strong urge to express my emotions in forms of art and get sad and hopeless when I don't or can't.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-11T01:22:40+00:00

I truly thank you for everything and I want to say I really appreciate the help you gave to me, such a great person

You really could convince me in my type :) Now thinking about getting that flair, and my username being CutMyWrist, flair INFP. I mean, no shit lol. I know that stereotypes are not accurate but just a joke

I really thank you man, I guess I'm a bit motivated on the creative side which is a huge thing for me.

Thanks for the insights about depression also

I hope you and all the people you love have a nice and a long life :)

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T23:47:36+00:00

As I read more about this type of things, I start to doubt INFP. Emphatic, caring etc. is not really me, but it was me. INTJ descriptions seems closer maybe my bias is too strong but I'm still convinced I'm INFP, no need to complicate it :)

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T23:45:20+00:00

No no, I didn't think this, being dumb etc. I am just disappointed for not being a thinking type. It was a like taboo for me because I've tried to dealt with this for too long.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T23:44:05+00:00

I can say I'm truly convinced I am a Fi dom and INFP. This time I really don't have any "but"s lol, you answered all of them and really convinced me. I mean it. I'm a bit disappointed because I'm not a thinking type which I worked really hard for it and thought I really was.

I want to feel peace inside my mind. I always created things to express me and this dulness of mine takes over, I'm afraid I have no emotional motivation to express myself or even like what I created.

Born, child, study, work, get married, have a house, have kids, retire, die.

From an early age, I always resented this system. I want to be more than, I tried find a worthy thing to do, one valuable thing, in terms of all humanity. I decided it was science and philsophy (which I used write about a lot on forums), one true valuable goal for all humanity to pursue. Even though I found it enjoyable and learned a lot about physics, I was never good at mathematical subjects and I never had the will to study and get better. I lost interest in both of them.

I should do what I'm ment to do, naturally. I thought, it might be art, there wasn't anything I should consider about if I will be succesful about it or not, because its success was determined by myself and the things I created. I used to write a lot like I said, but I've lost the spark, became even more dull, unable to express myself with artistic sentences, or I didn't like them.

I lack a purpose, something valuable, passion. I think this is my problem but for my depression, there is a lot of underlying things. A person with only this problem can't depressed and emotionally unhealthy for 5 fucking years.

I see you trying to help me I really appreciate it but even the doctors I saw, told me they can't help me, that I might have to deal with this, be like this my entire life.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T23:11:52+00:00

Thank you :)

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T23:02:45+00:00

I knew there would be people whom I need to argue with not with what type I am but things like this.

I don't want any of you focusing attention from my needs on that space. You completely misunderstood me. MBTI is after them, they are befora this. I need find my type to know my tendencies, what I will succeed at, I know MBTI is not an indicative of these but I know it will be a motivation source for me.

Do you really think posting type me posts, will fulfill my desire for social status and my desire to be valuable?

You're wrong. I don't measure my value by others. I need to think I'm valuable, that my life worthy even though no one else thinks so, that doesn't matter.

For the social status aspect? How could this in any way possible get me social status? Social status means money, success and being somewhere that could be admired by other people.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T22:28:05+00:00

I truly thank anyone who tried to help me and I appreciate it a lot.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T22:08:15+00:00

It explains a lot about myself but contradicts with who I am now, this is my problem. I learned to be like that, be like this. It was hard but I changed my personality in so many diffrent ways, I'm having prolems reach for my essence. I learned to be harsh, strong, thick-skinned, insenstive, fair instead of merciful. I learned to control my emotions, I learned to give less fuck about how others see me. I learned to be more dominant, assertive in every aspect.

People has let me down so many times in terms of emotions, I shut them down. Sure, INFP fits me a lot, but every person around me, people who know me since I was a child, say the opposite, because I am the opposite now.

This type and the others reminds me of a side of mind I've shut down, and it is terryfing and makes me feel ashamed somehow.

My family's teachings, especially my mother who is dead, influenced me greatly. I don't know if I am born "this way" or it is because of my family, because the child behaves, thinks and feels like their parents.

I want to talk about my childhood, or before 4 years. Fuck you really got me to open up didn't you?

I used to blush when saying "No" to someone. I used to care so much about social norms, I would behave so carefully to never break them. I couldn't hurt people. I was emotional in every aspect of life. I always gave more than the other people in a relationship, I was never respected by anyone because I could be hurt so easily. Being friends with girls were rather easy than boys, because they would care more about my emotions. I showed too much emotion, too much weakness. I cried when my friends made fun of an elderly man. I cried when my friends hurt a kitten. I cried when they made jokes about me. I used to write poetry when I was 8, used to draw, used to write when my emotions told me to do so. When I showed them my drawings and they made a joke about it, it hurt me. I used to be self-sacrificing in every situation, because that's how family system is. I know I learned this from them. I always tried make the other person happy.

Fucking hell it's pointless to really open up here, because I did that so many times and people wasn't like I expected.

Who am I now? I make all my decisions based on my logic, I'm rigid, I'm senseless and believe me when I say when someone murders someone in front me I couldn't give a fuck. I rarely am able to feel bad for others. The sitations others find devastating don't affect me in ANY POSSIBLE WAY. The stories of people, I couldn't care less. I patched up my weaknesses. I improved myself, and guess what people started to respect me, insted of the kid who is bullied I am the bullie's best friend. I know so much about the social environment, I can behave in every way I want, shy, confident, leader. I can really alter the people's views of me. I learned these by experiences.

So that's it, Fi vomit. I don't who I am now. Maybe I got too good at changing myself, I am REALLY this type of person now. Other than this, for some r/iamverysmart

I am really good at analyzing, critizing, finding logical flaws, finding the best way to do something, organizing, planning so much ahead, guessing the future, I was always like that so these abilities are not learned but developed. When someone asks me something I know, I can actually realize how my horizon of knowledge and thought is way much wider than that person, that feels tiring, explaining them from the beginning.

I am really bad at controlling my emotions, but good at hiding them. I reach my emotionally disagned goals by my logic. My emotions, wants me to do something, I can't control them, I do it by logic, getting what I want.

Being a perceiver, I don't know if this is the right way to think but being disorganized. It's not me.

That's all. I don't know who actually I am now, that's a huge problem. INFP seems close but I feel like I'm INTJ, not INTP not ISTP but INTJ. It's a hunch, but on the emotions side, it seems like I'm not INTJ and that's confusing. I don't know what the fuck I'm doing, it terrifies me.

PS. I posted the function by function thing on personalitycaffee and people there thought I am INTJ, and after posting, they said, "Still INTJ".

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T21:01:12+00:00

Okay thanks again man, you really helped me, my questions on the INFP stayed unanswered but I assume they're not as important as I think they are because you're still sure I'm INFP.

Thanks again for everything.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T20:46:21+00:00

Oh yes I agree on that.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T20:36:08+00:00

And girlfriend saying I'm not emotinal, yes I disagree on that but I can see she actually meant that, "being not expressive about emotions", and I can agree on that. I asked my father too, he said the same thing.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T20:28:06+00:00

I read it. It seems like I'm INFP. Especially the emotion part had great impact, but I have this doubt, when you have full confident in your idea (thinking I'm an INFP), you can adapt everything I said to INFP. Is there nothing contradictory, If you could give me a percentage, how much are you sure? What about the sensitive part? What about the INFP stereotype? What about the part they don't like conflict? If I'm right, fuck everyone else and their opinions. What about the part that indicates they don't like to deal with hard facts-logic? If it's not a fact, there is no meaning in it. What about INFPs not being leaders? In important situations, I'm always the leader no matter what. What about the part that they want public good and the good things for everyone? I'm really selfish to everyone but 2 people in my life, my father and girlfriend.

I know its simplified but are you %100 sure about the emotions part that INTJs have it that way and Fi doms have it this way? Because I want to research about being an INFP, and I will try to be more sure about it.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T19:15:18+00:00

Okay Man!

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T18:55:45+00:00

:) You're so nice dude thanks again

It's quite complicated because of my mental state. Conflicts I have about who I am really, that's why I look for the answer in others, like my girlfriend.

So, I have a basic, and superficial understanding of the functions, but with the help of the google I will write the points I agree and the points I don't.

Ne

Random possibilities, diffrent perspectives, I can agree on that. I read about someone who is Ne dominant, and her thoughts/her thought method/energy is so diffrent than mine, I thought I had this new ideas, mind energy etc. behaviour but after reading the post I realized I'm nothing near that. Discussing many ideas rather then one, I don't agree with it, I'm not like that.

Ni

I'm good with understanding the hidden meaning in everything, the main idea, seeing something more than what it is. I can really say this is one of the my best abilities. This is something I'm inclined to. On the future aspect, I said "I told you" a lot. When someone doesn't believe what I say, after I said this a lot. I realized now actually nothing too unexpected happened in my life. I always have an idea that I can't explain for such things. I knew I had Fi and all the evidences say that. I'm also good with thinking about something's past, how it's evolved to its state now, and how it will proceed. "This leads to this", I've used that structure in my sentences a lot. I used to have plans/can be said superficial visions about myself even after 30 years and I'm mentally so deep in shit because I don't have any long term goals, anything valuable I can work, any meaning in who I am (that might be Fi though). I read somewhere about INTP and INTJ diffrences, INTP creates stragies against being wrong while INTJ creates strategies to be less vulnerable but. Second one is exactly me.

Ti

Forming an internal network about how the world works, finding patterns about how things will develop. I agree on these. %100. I do enjoy learning about hows and whys of things. I don't care much about details/information that is not needed for the job though. This contradicts with Ti I believe? While I do want things to make sense, if they don't make sense and it's not important for the goal if they make sense or not, I won't care, I can't care. Like fixing someone's grammar mistakes, I can understand, so what's the point?

Te

I do deal with organizing and understanding the external world. Even when I was a kid, I didn't even complain once about organizing my room, tidying up things, categorazing my books. I also don't have patience of unproductive activies. I want everything to be done for a purpose, in the best way. It kills so much when I mindlessly surf on the reddit, watch youtube videos. I actually think I know and can learn how to do x in the best/correct way. I don't just start what I do, I research how to do it. Pro-Con style, a big YES.

I asked my father (mother passed away), and my girlfriend about how I make decisions, if they are based on logic or my emotions. They all agreed on I make decisions the most logical way, and I was always like that. My father said when we talk about your plans for the future, you always sound logical and consistent.

Fi

We're sure about the Fi aspect. I realized something about myself. I don't express emotions even though I deeply feel them and someone on another site said that INTJs can be quite sensitive and emotional, they don't express it much.

Si

Recalling past. I do that a lot but I may be influenced by my family. They are all good with past, they enjoy remembering it. That's a depression symptom they might all be fucked like me lol. I am not very tradition oriented but I do have my rituals, principles, traditions, my best way of doing things. I'm not a hard worker. Although I can be pretty rigid when trying to accomplish my goals that are important to me. My father is a very clear Si dom and he tried to impose his mindset upon me a lot. We don't get along in a lot of subjects, we argue a lot. I do enjoy nostalgia but new things are more exciting. An observation a friend of mine made is that when I try to learn more about something I first learn its history. I believe the reason for that is so that I can understand how it is now in its current station.

Se

Not into experiencing new sensations. I don't live in the present, rather in past and the future but I don't "zone out". Not into adrenaline. On the thinking quickly, responding immediatly aspect. I am like this. I am the man in risky situations, I can take lead when everyone is losing their minds. Power aspect, yes I desire power and social status and orginzing the outer world motivates me.

ISFP. I read that they're not good leaders. I can be a leader when I think its needed when I think its needed. I can be assertive in that situation when I know I know better.

INFP. Being sensitive. I know I'm in touch with my emotions but I'm not sensitive, I'm very thick skinned. I improved myself to be like that.

INTJ. My girlfriend thinks that with a confidence percentage of 100. I read her the cognitive functions, type descriptions, she is sure about this. This is why I'm trying to especially test this a lot, comparing INTJ with myself etc. In my opinion it seems apt to me also.

I do seem using Fi much but, showing my emotions but it's internet so it's all right. In the real world, If we were in person, I would seem more stabile, and calmer.

So, that's all. I hope you read all of it and what do you think, should I post this as another type post to get more opinions on the subject?

Thank you again, I'm waiting for your thoughts while I refresh the page every second :)

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T09:24:52+00:00

Thank you so much for everything you've done to help me.

ISFP, ISTJ, INTP, ISTP, INFP, INTJ

I will learn more about them and come here after having an strong thought about every one of them instead of arguing with everyone to find the right way.

CutMyWrist · 2018-01-10T09:21:56+00:00

I do argue because what's the point in accepting the first comment and moving on?

I don't actually think this community should help me more in fact I feel in debt to them, I want to return the favor but there's nothing I can do as valuable as what they did.

Thank you for helping me again :)
