Hi guys! So I need a little help here finding my type, I´ve taken tests thousands of times and I always get different results, I tried to understand the functions but I think it´s impossible for me to type me myself because I´m not being objective, so I came here to find objective opinions from people who have a much better understanding of MBTI. If you´re bored and feel like reading a lot then go ahead and feel free to comment whatever you think! (And if you can point out what functions you see in what I wrote that would also help a lot) What I do know is that there´s no way in hell I´m an ESTJ/ENTJ/ISTJ/INTJ.... probably. Also sorry for any grammar mistakes since english is not my native language! Alright here we go:
-First of all I have social anxiety, it really isn´t THAT bad, it could be a lot worse. I just get irrationally nervous when meeting new people or when I´m introduced to new situations which involve new people, also when I don´t know what to expect in different situations it makes me really anxious. This started to happen to me I think 3 years ago so it wasn´t always like this. Since I have this problem it´s difficult to tell how I actually am in new situations I mean, if I didn´t have that irrational anxiety I´d probably act totally different, more freely.
-I usually take a more rational and logical approach to life, I try to not complicate myself and just let things be and accept everything as it is but I can´t help questioning everything at the same time, and I have a very hard time dealing with things that just doesn´t make sense to me, my social anxiety which I find completely irrational, for example. I´d often think 'there´s no reason for me to feel this way this makes no sense' and things like that, I just rationalize my feelings a lot in general, I analyze my emotions and try to understand WHY I feel the way I do and if I can´t find an answer I get frustrated.
-I´m very people oriented even when I try not to be, I love to start new things (though it´s also complicated and hard because anxiety) and one of the things that excites me the most about it it´s the new people I´m going to meet, so when I start to take new classes instead of focusing on learning I focus more on people, if there isn´t good people to share the experience with me then that just takes the 70% of the fun.
-I´ve always had a huge need to communicate, to say what I think and to discuss things and share opinions and stuff. My way of communicating is kind of spontaneous... I don´t think what I´m going to say, I prefer to just say it and think later, same with decisions, I don´t like to spend a lot of time thinking and going back and forward, I prefer to just decide and move on, I don´t have a lot of patience...
I rely on my ability to improvise 110%, it has got to a point in which is blind optimism more than anything. I´d have to study for a math test and I´d think 'I´m sure I´ll find a way of dealing with this tomorrow' and I´d manage. I ended up graduating from high school I´m not even sure how
-I push my limits a little too much, I always leave everything for the last minute, I´d not study and see how far I could go without doing it, I´d not go to school and see how far I could get away with that, etc. If I didn´t feel like what I had to study wouldn´t apport me anything I considered important, then I´d just cheat and get away with it without feeling remorse and things like that... yep. I just can´t do something that doesn´t interest me or motivate me even if it will reward me in the future, instant gratification is more important and it complicates my life sometimes
-I´m independent, I only ask for help when I REALLY need it, when I just can´t figure something out myself. Small talk bores the hell out of me, I don´t have time for that... I can only stand it if it comes from close friends. I love to talk, if I´m talking it means I´m in a good mood, but I can also be really quiet, especially in new situations when I don´t know how to react or how to adapt myself to that environment yet. I can be very observing.
-I´m very good at reading and understanding peoples emotions and where they´re coming from. I´m also very good at understanding group dynamics, even if I´m not interested in being part of it, I just pay attention to those things. People's moods around me influence me a lot, if my friends are in a bad mood I just can´t be in a good mood. When I see someone crying in a movie my eyes immediately fills with water, don´t know what´s up with that. Same thing if they´re laughing, movies can influence my mood as well.
Recently I found out that I can understand my feelings so much better if I talk about them instead of just trying to analyze them in my head
-I don´t like to read much but sometimes I find something that really interests me and I literally OBSESS over that thing, it can also be a series, etc. I can spend some time alone as long as I´m entertained, doing something, if I start to feel bored I feel very anxious. And if I spend too much time on my own I start to feel sad and anxious (I´m not sure if this is even normal, I may really need a psychologist like, right now)
I don´t sleep much because I have this extreme necessity to live and not waste my days
-The only thing I really want from life is to just... experience it and learn and grow as a person, I´d happily spend the rest of my days travelling around the world with people I like, because I think that experiences develops in learning something and growing. So I just want to see the world and what it has to offer. The idea of spending my life working in a office always with the same routine, without the chance to do something different, makes me feel incredibly anxious.
Okay that´s enough I think! If someone actually has the patience to read all of this: THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU´RE AMAZING
