Casual Active Personality Change

[Lord_hierophantūs]

It seems a lot of imageboard users and etc get the INTJ, ENTP and the purple ones in general, I wonder why. Probably autism lmao

Oddly, I mainly get INTP.

I think I understand what you mean. I wish I could change many aspects of my personality, but I think what mostly hinders my progress is that I don't know what my goal clearly is as of now. But I feel that there is too much making up my personality that was born from unfortunate circumstances or lack of standard and developing experiences. There's a lot that's off about my personality while I also feel, I suppose, "undefined," which makes me feel disconnected and uneasy when interacting with people.

I'm not sure if it's possible to change your personality really, but I'm starting by trying to rid myself of the things I feel shouldn't be there. Doing that still feels difficult, but at least it's a comprehensible goal. Trying to gain the attributes that I would like after first figuring out what those should be seems like the more difficult part. Maybe trying to manufacture my personality to such a degree isn't healthy, but I wouldn't really know.

I'm somewhat autistic but I've gotten better at hiding it. I found a contradiction that In trying not to appear autistic it would make me look like a robot. I delved deep into the stupid MBTI shit for a long time and found it to be broken. You can't fit 8 billion people into 16 personality types. I feel like Jung's functions along with John Beebe's 8 function model are good if you allow the perspective that everyone can have every function just maybe at different levels and attitudes. I've been making progress. Turns out I'm not full autist I just needed to open up with people / friends more. I feel like it's like the fear of snakes. Snakes fear you more than you fear them. In a way people like us(?) might be overly aware of not fitting in or being autistic but others will accept you / our quirks if you give them a bit more to work with.

Those 16 personality tests are a cope for NPCs that don't have anything remarkable about them and they want a label to "fit in society".

In general people aren't hostile or against your company.But I can understand that people who had it rough as a kid may be hesitant to make new contacts in fear of being hurt / rejected for no clear reason

I don't understand this complex personality/psychology/sociology stuff but what I do understand about myself is that I am an introvert and feel anxious and paranoid around people but I am able to have conversations with them without embarassing myself but if have to really force myself to do that because I don't like taking to people because I'm worried that they won't understand what I am talking about and will judge me.

I was interested in it because I felt like if the system works, I could type myself and then learn about myself from the other information out there and understand others more quickly by typing them but the MBTI system is broken and typing others takes too much time even if it did work.
