This sort off makes sense: Yes, it's an official diagnosis and I'm not gifted or talented. Just massively choatic. I've also been on ritalin for a while but I've stopped because it suddenly made me very agitated and the rebound was no way near worth the gain in concentration. I want to deal...

I'm quite happy with who I am and I wouldn't want to be someone else. Being an INTP has it's pro's and con's, but so does every type. I don't think being an INTP can make a person unhappy. Not accepting who you are and losing focus on your positive traits can. Besides, Ti/Ne rocks.

I didn't know I was INTP during high school. At first I got bullied because I was an easy target. I didn't like the stuff other classmates liked (shopping, shoplifting even, passing out by holding your breath in a certain way, popular tv shows, impressing others, what other people do, stupid...

Thank God for timezones and the internet :)

I always put excess butter back :phear:

Breaking Bad Dexter House MD IT Crowd Green Wing The Big Bang Theory How I Met Your Mother Californication The last three are shows I mainly watch with my boyfriend. I've tried making him watch Dexter but he's not very fond of that and House MD is too much drama for him. I sort of agree with...

I loved His Dark Materials. Almost read the books in one go and I had to have them on me all the time, so whenever I got the chance, I could read. Other than that: The Neverending Story and most of Roald Dahl's books.

Well, yes. I experience most difficulty with this at work. When a costumer asks me something I usually have to check our storage and as I go back they've wandered off a little to continue shopping. If they haven't, great, I know where they were so big chance it's the same person when I find...

(couldn't help it) Just a thought: I test INTP and I have ADD. The stuff that helps me "manage" looks a lot like J-stuff: organizing and structuring the external world, try to make to do lists, plan stuff way ahead, working goal and task oriented, etc. So I guess you could say that by lacking...

Dear Lord...

Seriously though, how do you guys get those walls of text out of your head? Mine are quite comfortable up there and whenever I try to type them out I get all confused and stuff. Almost as if the clear line of thought gets messed up and it takes too long for me to untangle it, and consequently I...

I'm confused, is this a new topic?

Welcome! I can relate to your frustration as I also have to do a lot of projects in teams, and I don't particularly like it either. The social conventions and stuff like that, it can be so non efficient. But alas. You just have to try and experience it, and if you do that enough you'll...

I think Fe is something you need to develop and try out yourself, not something that is simply "forced" upon you by others. I myself need to learn in my own pace and this goes for a lot of things. I get extremely stressed if someone tries to force me to do something I really need to take my time...

Immortality. The rest doesn't really interest me.

I'm almost done with my associate and plan on doing a master.

7/10, very interesting http://www.youtube.com/embed/OmJ5MLhGxoI (I don't know how you insert youtube videos..)

Jep, it's great fun.

The Netherlands, somewhere near Amsterdam.

I've attempted to learn Russian, Japanese and Hungarian. Russian sounds hot, I wanted to learn Japanese so I could watch unsubbed anime and Hungarian because I'm 25% Hungarian. Through school I've learned a bit of French, German, Latin and Ancient Greek but I dropped the subjects because I...

I agree with the above. People think of me as an extraverted person (as in outgoing), and I guess I kind of am. I enjoy being around people and interacting with them, it just makes me very tired and in the evening I need to "charge up" by being alone. The nature vs nurture thing though, I'm...

Interesting topic. (even got me out of the lurking zone) My frame of reference is a vast collection of shelves, almost like a library but without the books, it's just organized like one. Collections of shelves are themed yet there's no clear legend. There's also a lot of empty shelves, things I...

Hi :)

I think it is referring to a part of a sentence we don't speak out loud, or write down anymore, but used to be back then. Or at least that's how it goes for the oddities in dutch language.

That was inspirational. You got me right back in my happy zone :D

Welcome :) I think you can find quite the mental stimulation here.

You read the whole list and are annoyed by the fact that some things are mentioned twice and can't hold yourself from saying it. sorry Nice list though. Most of it applied :)

There's a difference between reflecting and worrying. There's nothing wrong with a healthy dose of reflectiveness, however, if you let it take over your life and have an impact on how you're feeling, it's a bad sign. That's what I sensed in the OP. I think acceptance is the first step and if...

Not sure... Aren't those things supposed to be cooled?

Another dubstep liking female! I also really have to be in the mood to listen to dubstep, but that basically goes for every genre for me. I like house and drum and bass better though, jungle and breakbeat even.

I am currently in a relationship with an ISTP for three years and we do fine :) We had our problems regarding our communication when we are debating science stuff (he is totally into physics) but we've learned to accept each others thinking style. He is more concrete and I am more abstract, and...

I'm actually a her :P Would be awesome to have things (other than lamps) hanging from the ceiling... lol what about ketchup bottles in the kitchen, the squeeze ones, so all you have to do is get on a stool and hold your plate under the bottle. Saves up room in the refridg- oh damn it. Hot air...

Whenever I go down that road, I realise there is no use to thinking about what could have been because you can't change the past. It's basically wasted energy.

I'm dealing with the same stuff. I'll just lurk this topic for advice.

Ah, found it ^^ You make interesting stuff. I am a bit confused though, do you also paint? Or is it all photography?

Thanks! Where can I find your photobucket album?

Hyperfocus is not about getting things done. I hardly ever get things done in hyperfocus. I'm just undistractable, forget about time and everything else. I read through whole wikipedia entries because the subject interests me, without noticing anything else. Sometimes I even forget to eat...

Yeah, those are trees (: I posted the larger picture in a topic somewhere in the visual art board. (surreal/photography I think I named the topic)

Massive Attack - Paradise Circus

Death Note, Hellsing. I'm stuck. (the full metal alchemist manga is also awesome, never watched the anime though)

I think it's genius xD Love the humour and the way the characters "grow" (yes, even Sheldon). I actually like how they stereotyped the geeks.

Nice to see so much surreal stuff posted here ^^ I'm into surreal photomanipulation and abstract photography. I also like to make steampunk stuff. slartibartfast (currently modding a nerf barricade :D)

I make the best white rice with unseasoned chicken.

I can relate to your story a lot. Just recently I'm out of high school and I had the same problems. They sent me to the middle level (havo, yep I'm also dutch) because of my lack of motivation, and that's where the problems started. I was very quick and hated the repetition and the mind numbing...

PH > peachhead > perzikhoofd (translated to dutch) > perzik > persephone The way back to my first nickname on the internet :)

Yes! I am not always aware of my internal monologue (and most of the time it isn't in words, but I still like to call it monologue 'cause it's basically the same, just without the words) And. It keeps me from falling asleep at nights.

Well... I don't agree. It almost seems as if you "want" it to fit your theory in stead of actually fitting. (because it does, to some extent, and you're trying very hard to make it fit, but it doesn't completely. there is a flaw in logic.) Ti is about analyzing things and Te is about ordering...

I thought it was just a fancy metaphor xD (didn't need much explanation at all I think...)

Body language is great manipulation xD I use it a lot when I want to get things done by people (and I haven't succeeded another way). Nodding, talking with your hands, looking in the eyes of your conversational partner. I tried it once to my boss because he made me work too much (I literally...

When you see a flaw in someones reasoning and can't help but blurt it out.
