Am i INTP or mental

[principle]

hi new to the forum and im having trouble figuring out what personality type i am. Ive taken the online tests many times and i seem to find myself getting a variety of IxxP, with intp being the most frequent. I was wondering if u guys share similiar traits as i do and tell me what u guys think

just going to list a bunch of facts about me that i think make me different.

Disclaimer: some may be subjective as i dont know wtfux im doing right now.

-very indecisive
- im always thinking but its scattered thoughts
- masturbation/porn problem
-i do fairly well in school i know what it takes to get A's as i have done it in past semesters in college but i feel lazy\depressed now b/c i feel theres no purpose.
-believe most people are/ought to be honest. whenever ppl talk to me i feel as if they are most of the time honest to me but sometimes i find out they lie where they lie about that the stupidest of things.
- i think a lot of things are stupid
- i dont care about a lot of things
- my family says i dont have any manners
- my couple friends say im a huge douchebag, whereas i dont see it in myself
-super lazy
- i think i dont know much about myself..
- started dressing really poorly
- spend 6+ hours in my room either on my bed thinking or on the computer , weekends 75% of the time im in my room
-when i find something interesting i try to analyze the sht out of it and i notice i really enjoy finding patterns that are out of the norm and are different
-video games for hours
- i dont read a lot of books or care too much for politics and philosophy where i see a lot of intp's on the internet do
-dont socialize much in highschool/college pretty sure ppl think im wierd.
- when in convos with peers i do a lot of listening rather than talking
-short term memory problem

Most honest fact about me: at times i feel really smart and where other times i feel like im dumb, but mostly im always confused.

well thats all for now tell me what u guys think and if u have any questions ill be glad to answer.

• started dressing really poorly

fuckin' mental

 

[redbaron]

Both.

 

[principle]

i chuckled.

And to the guy abv like i said its very subjective

i watch porn probably 1-2 times a day and for the other things, im not the 1 to stick out in a large crowd, i always keep to myself and try to follow common etiquette but i know empathy/sympathy are my greatest traits.

Maybe i critique myself too harshly

 

[Base groove]

masturbation/porn problem

what's the problem with porn again?

 

[principle]

what's the problem with porn again?

u have a point sir

 

[TimeAsylums]

masturbation/porn problem

Do you fucking want to burn in hell? How many children have you killed? do you know how ashamed the parents of those people in those videos must feel? do you know how the people in the video must feel knowing that people have been recording during their most private moments that should only be seen by one other person? do you know how degrading you are to those people, and to yourself.

i dont care about a lot of things

Are you a fucking sociopath? Why the fuck do you lack empathy and sympathy and interest in life. No wonder your family thinks you don't have manners and your friends think you're a doucebag

my family says i dont have any manners

jesus fuck and you don't dress well? stop putting pressure on your family; you don't dress well and you're a douchebag. Do you know how this affects their image socially? Did you ever stop to think and have empathy for how they might feel?

my couple friends say im a huge douchebag

look at how you again affect your family's image, your own image, and your friends' images. Stop being an eyesore to society

started dressing really poorly

Do you want to smoke marijuana? Do you want to be a pothead stoner in your family's basement being not well dressed and a douche bag and have poor manners? Do you really? Do you, really?

hi new to the forum and im having trouble figuring out what personality type i am.

Welcome to the Forum. You could be INTP.

-very indecisive
- im always thinking but its scattered thoughts

To be decisive motivation is needed.

-

masturbation/porn problem
-i do fairly well in school i know what it takes to get A's as i have done it in past semesters in college but i feel lazy\depressed now b/c i feel theres no purpose.

Masturbation not relevant. Normal.
Getting good grades is for the future. That's the purpose.

-believe most people are/ought to be honest. whenever ppl talk to me i feel as if they are most of the time honest to me but sometimes i find out they lie where they lie about that the stupidest of things.

Go with those who are honest; not with the rest.

- i think a lot of things are stupid
- i dont care about a lot of things
- my family says i dont have any manners
- my couple friends say im a huge douchebag, whereas i dont see it in myself
-super lazy

All this has to do with motivation. "Lazy" is a subjective term.

- i think i dont know much about myself..

I dunno. Try out this Forum.

- started dressing really poorly
- spend 6+ hours in my room either on my bed thinking or on the computer , weekends 75% of the time im in my room
-when i find something interesting i try to analyze the sht out of it and i notice i really enjoy finding patterns that are out of the norm and are different

Really? If you're thinking, you're not lazy. What about? What interests you if you could or would go further?

-video games for hours
- i dont read a lot of books or care too much for politics and philosophy where i see a lot of intp's on the internet do

I don't do video but do like philosophy. Philosophy could be for fun to see how things work.

-dont socialize much in highschool/college pretty sure ppl think im wierd.
- when in convos with peers i do a lot of listening rather than talking

You are an introvert. Good for you. So am I. I am a veteran of this board.

-

short term memory problem

Most honest fact about me: at times i feel really smart and where other times i feel like im dumb, but mostly im always confused.

Depends on the topic, doesn't it?

well thats all for now tell me what u guys think and if u have any questions ill be glad to answer.

I don't have any Q's for now. That depends on what goes on after this.

 

[Pyropyro]

what's the problem with porn again?

On its own it's simply entertainment. Unfortunately because of the Coolidge effect, people tend to waste too much time and energy on them that should have been diverted to more productive and even reproductive pursuits.

Ah the finer moments in life.

Do you fucking want to burn in hell? How many children have you killed? do you know how ashamed the parents of those people in those videos must feel? do you know how the people in the video must feel knowing that people have been recording during their most private moments that should only be seen by one other person? do you know how degrading you are to those people, and to yourself.

Maybe those parents feel right proud. Imagine the courage it takes to go nude and express yourself knowing thousands may watch. Maybe they are extroverts. Ever think of that? Not everyone is a private person.

Didn't know you believed in hell. Got religion?

Degrading or uplifting?

Killing children? Generally I don't approve of that, so your position is sound ... unless they are pointing an AK-47 at you. Then you must act swiftly.

Either time asylum is an idiot and just lost all my respect.... or he is trolling, in which case he just lost 50% of my respect.

Disgrace to the INTP type.

Well good thing he isn't an INTP type, we have enough of those disgracing the INTP type as it is.

Welcome.

 

[somfoolishfoole]

INTP= 1st Ti, 2nd Ne, 3rd Si, 4th Fe, 5th Te, 6th Ni, 7th Se, 8th Fi

-very indecisive

Ne, always weighing up extra options trying to get the "best" choice

- im always thinking but its scattered thoughts

Ne, jumping through thoughts and getting lost on tangents

-i do fairly well in school i know what it takes to get A's as i have done it in past semesters in college but i feel lazy\depressed now b/c i feel theres no purpose.

Ne again, Ne can see through the task at hand without just blindly doing it. School is at best, training for your Si, which probably hasnt yet shown itself. School is hell for you Ne/Ti. I can't immediately think of a solution for this.

-believe most people are/ought to be honest. whenever ppl talk to me i feel as if they are most of the time honest to me but sometimes i find out they lie where they lie about that the stupidest of things.

This MIGHT be because Fe is completely undeveloped yet, so you don't understand the use of applying feelings or agenda's to honesty. Expecting that others feel as little emotion as you do could be why you expect more honesty than they give. You have not experienced the idea of making a decision or lying because of pride or what-not. This was a bit of a stretch on this one, I could easily be wrong.

- i think a lot of things are stupid

Ne or Ni trait. If Ne is able to create transparency in a concept, and that transparency reveals it to be illogical or stupid, then the human becomes flabbergasted and annoyed at why stupid things are happening. Realize 73% of people are not Ni/Ne. In other words (speaking over-generally) 73% of people do not even see the transparency, let alone the illogical.

- i dont care about a lot of things

This could be over or under stimulation of Ne.
Or it could be Fe lack of attatchment to life events.
Or it could be both.

- my family says i dont have any manners

Under-developed Si. You will be years ahead of yourself if you can develop your Si while you are still in your highschool career. Si is responsible for appearance, tardiness, tidiness and a long list of other things too that I CBF mentioning

- my couple friends say im a huge douchebag, whereas i dont see it in myself

You might, like myself, find that you register rather high in "the dark triad" test. It is a test of sociopathy, narcissism and Machiavellianism. The word "douchebag" by my internal dictionary, means one who is a jock, or a cocky athletic extroverted type. If this holds any truth, it is not typical of an INTP. But this is the first sign of missing the INTP type that I have seen from you.

-super lazy

Si again. A bit of a well thought out regime by your parents would help. "well thought out" being the issue here. some regime by where, when you suceed at Si things (homework and such), you are rewarded with points or something which go towards buying a telescope. Your Ne won't give a fuck that it's all pointless if you are getting a telescope or a microscope or whatever science equipment gives your Ne a hard on.

- i think i dont know much about myself..

Fi 8th function. In an emotional sence, you will never know yourself well.
In a psychoanalitical point of view, your an INTP... your brain knows you are not the same as others. But Ti has very little to work with here because you probably don't know any1 else who is like you so Ne can't gather information about other INTP's to compare with yourself and thus having something to compare yourself against so as to understand yourself better.

- started dressing really poorly

Si again. Caring about the way you dress is a choice for INTP's. You have to choose to care, if you want to care.

- spend 6+ hours in my room either on my bed thinking or on the computer , weekends 75% of the time im in my room

You are INTP. That is certain. This statement made sure of that.

-when i find something interesting i try to analyze the sht out of it and i notice i really enjoy finding patterns that are out of the norm and are different

I'm not sure I understood correctly. Sounds like another Ne thing though.

-video games for hours

The intellectual trap. Your intelligence will jump a great deal if you can escape the vicious clutch of games. Games will keep you stupid and occupied, but might make you happy for a while.
Realise that games gain you NOTHING in life. Delete your best character on your best RPG game that you spent 300+ hours building, and realise that you have just lost nothing. When you finish the game you are playing right now, there is another game you will fancy that needs finishing. There are more games out there than you can complete. To complete a game is to achieve nothing but deprive yourself of the achievement you would require to feel the same release of endorphins. So congrats, whenever you finish a game, you saved yourself having to actually earn something in real life, so that you could feel good. Play the game of life, earn real achievements. Build your intelligence to a point that you can help humanity.

- i dont read a lot of books or care too much for politics and philosophy where i see a lot of intp's on the internet do

I don't give a shit about politics. I love certain aspects of philosophy though. It is not a requirement that you like these subjects. I would assume, being INTP, though that you hold at least a few interests in certain science subjects? Astronomy? Cosmology? Physiscs? Biology? Chemistry?

-dont socialize much in highschool/college pretty sure ppl think im wierd.

The INTP's tradeoff for intelligence is having to learn social behaviour. Everyone else just knows it.

- when in convos with peers i do a lot of listening rather than talking

Perceiving.
Your "information gathering function" is extroverted (Ne) whilst your "decision making function" is introverted (Ti). When you decide on a best course of action or converse, you keep it to yourself.

-short term memory problem

Si underdeveloped. Si also responcible for sequencial storage of memories and knowledge.

Most honest fact about me: at times i feel really smart and where other times i feel like im dumb, but mostly im always confused.

Translation: "most honest fact about me, at times, I use my Ti/Ne (alone/socialising) where other times I can't rely on my Si to regurgitate things that I thought I was quite good at. But mostly I'm a young INTP.

Hey thanks for the timely response i really appreciate it.

However after seeing the previous posts abv im not sure how much i can verify the information given particularly in this thread. What that other guy posted kind of got to me although he knows nothing about me.

Thanks though

Hilarity. To give finality to your question, principle, to be intp is to be mental. Non-mental intp's are boring, mundane, plebian.
Just accept that you do not fit into society, find like minded individuals and some intellectual pursuit such as programming, chess, physics or mammoth cloning.

*Editereeno: Ah yes, social protocol dictates that I welcome you to the forum.
Welcom to the forum.

wtfux is going on, i get it im simply being trolled..

OR AM I

man fuck you guys

 

[Rook]

My words were light hearted, my post serious. I was in high school last year, and had many of the problems you face(still have some of them). Believe me, when you find something complex to focus your mind on, the boredom and laziness are mitigated. When you find like-minded people, most social difficulties evaporate( at least with those people).
Challenge your mind and find people like you.
Life will become easier and more entertaining.

If you are offended by trolling, ignore it. Engage the forum, and soon the forum will engage back in a civil(or at most tolerable) manner.

Your personality type isn't the most important thing for now.

There's method in the madness on this thread although you have to sift through the meanings and the garbage. Some serious entries are actually BS and some fun entries are actually useful.

Someone else said it earlier, so I'm seconding the ENTP possibility. IMO, ENTP = boundary blindness. Though I don't know how OP is annoying people by staying inside his room. Must be extremely talented.

but who really knows?

I think "type" is less important here than just figuring out how to make your life better, if you're not currently content.

 

[Anktark]

Hello. I don't think you are an INTP. Some other kind of IxxP, maybe ISTP. I think it would be helpful if you could write a stream of your thoughts to us. For example, what would be your thoughts about "Birds need wings to fly" or "Donate money to kids in Africa"?

Hey thanks for replying but i got a better idea, how about relating to my thoughts on this thread?

Some things i want to point out before i begin
-I realize even though my thoughts are in depth its really hard for me to explain in words and when i say i will write down my thoughts i forget all the really good points id like to make for some reason...
-I retested on humanmetrics and mypersonality and they both turned out to be ISTP so i think thats what i may be even though some of the characteristics dont seem to sound like me at all

OK so here i go pls no more trollerino

i cant recall the specific thoughts that i had but ill try my best

TimeAslyums 2nd post
This really got to me, the second i read it i jumped on my bed and fell into deep thought i questionned if i really was a sociopath or whatever breathing became hard and i had cold sweats. But i knew deep down i will be fine and life will continue the exact same. However i did question my life.

Appreciated Pis post but then again couldnt really verify how much of it was real. However i got really paranoid knowing hes admin and all. I dont know..

"Ah the finer moments in life." didnt really get this
1 he was stating that he feels connected to such another wierd human being?
or 2 he was just purely enjoying what was going on in this thread

Do you like daggers?
Didnt know what it was at first so had to urban dictionary it.
im guessing u guys are pestering at my porn problem

I love to hear there are biggest suckers than I am ;D

Your personality type isn't the most important thing for now.

This i found scary true. Havent really done much in my life and i feel bad for that but i cant be the only 1 in this world that sucks at life right?

So this post when i read it then i knew what was going on. I sensed people were throwing garbage at me. I tried to create a logical formula in my head where i sort of do at times to sort out whose lying and whos telling the truth?

The second thing ive gotten before where i think im too full of myself? I dont feel thats me quite the opposite at times but maybe my stupidity is covering this up. I dont know.

More like realizing that boundaries aren't as meaningful as they're made out to be and just ignoring them.

I'm personally not quite sure why you were treated differently than some of our fellow basket cases when they joined... but basically:

1. Nothing you listed is a problem, regardless of whether or not any of it meshes with prevailing social norms. The only thing that sticks out to me is this default belief in honesty. Why don't you question more?

2. Don't worry too much about labels, only processes.

3. Within the context of 2, the OP screams formal thought disorder. I'll leave you to draw your own inferences.

4. Also, BAP is not an admin. These are the admin.

5. Welcome.

- masturbation/porn problem

if you're a male between the ages of 15-25, normal. If you're older or female, get help.

do fairly well in school i know what it takes to get A's as i have done it in past semesters in college but i feel lazy\depressed now b/c i feel theres no purpose.

This is pretty normal isn't it? In fact, twenty something college students who don't experience an existential crisis are the ones I'd be worried about.

-believe most people are/ought to be honest.

This is just a sheltered, naive opinion. Trust me, you won't hold this view your entire life.

- i think a lot of things are stupid

Me too.

- i dont care about a lot of things

Me either, but I learn about them anyway and pretend I do.

my family says i dont have any manners

Are you a WASP?

-super lazy

Impossible. The INTP mind NEVER STOPS.

- i think i dont know much about myself..

and you call yourself an introvert?

started dressing really poorly

me too.

spend 6+ hours in my room either on my bed thinking or on the computer , weekends 75% of the time im in my room

My adolescence says what's up.

i dont read a lot of books or care too much for politics and philosophy where i see a lot of intp's on the internet do

I never liked any of that crap either (but I was interested in Philosophy). I still loathe politics, but as an adult I developed a passion for reading.

dont socialize much in highschool/college pretty sure ppl think im wierd.

"why don't you ever talk to anyone". I heard that ad nauseam growing up. Common among introverts and those with social anxiety disorders

I don't know man, you may be a schizophrenic basket case IRL, but judging by your descriptions, you seem pretty typical to me.

to the posters above there are some things id like to mention

1. i cant see myself as an extravert ExxP, i always keep to myself think inside my head and ppl i know say that im very stubborn. i pretty much only listen to myself..

when i say lazy i mean i dont like to do the physical work. mental work i like i just dont like actually doing it

also i dont think i believe EVERYTHING i just get white lied i guess stupid little things where they dont need to lie

Dude who cares what your personality type is? You sound like a dazed and confused adolescent unsure of his place the world to me. It's called growing up.

Lay off the porn. And find a hobby. Be careful you don't become a hermit and completely shut off the outside world tho, otherwise you could become the loser in mom,'s basement stereotype.


Note: Phone post hope it's in English
