I used to be even a lot more sensitive when I was younger. For example, I couldn't stand wearing socks with these 'stitched edges' at the toes. Drove me mad. That kind of stuff I sort of lost during my development or something.

The problem with faces is that we have a holistic way of looking at the world, whereas drawing faces actually requires you to see things as they are and not how you (unconsciously) interpret things. You for example don't see the shape that you would usually draw when you draw a face. When you...

I notice that other people help me relax. I'm not sure if I'm an INTP. Guess it's not a very INTP-ish thing to go for the socializing to feel better. It's not just any social contact that helps though, but for example playing music with a friend, learning new things together with someone else...

Wondering if maybe part of me being down so much lately is due to the fact that I quit my anti-depressants too quickly. I quit in about 4 stages of 3 weeks each, lowering the dosage with the same amount every time. So 12 weeks altogether. It's hard to be sure, because around the time that I was...

At least some of these also seem to be about insecurity and not so much being highly sensitive (as highly sensitive is something that comes natural, where insecurity is learned behavior). I did score high enough myself though (22 as well). I just find the questions a bit... meh. For...

Yeah you know I am a very social person towards family and friends. But when it comes to most people, I find them shallow, annoying, uninteresting etc. So yeah, it's all relative. And yes, I'm also a bit insecure/shy socially, but not to the degree that I don't interact with people :)

The Road Less Traveled :)

It's funny, I was actually debating this same thing with my dad last night. I have some experience with web development, and I find it hard to imagine that a website that allows you to create a profile with some text, add some pictures, and then have a search functionality to search through...

The Social Butterfly You scored 52% empathic, 24% delusional, 55% sociable, and 30% law-abiding! You like people, a lot. You don't really care much about the law, but it doesn't much matter when you're on such good terms with everyone around you. So long as you don't get yourself into...

However, from what I can read from the very blurry picture they are also speaking of 'talking very loud' and 'music'. Of course that can be really annoying. It's easy to win when you're not being honest ;)

I have done this before, several times even, but I'm hesitant about it now. One of the girls I was casual with I eventually started to have an actual relationship with, even though we really didn't fit that well. We had a lot of fun being silly and sleeping together, but in other more serious...

I wish I forgot to eat actually. With me it's usually the other way around. I get bored and eat.

Yeah well. Not the first time humanity disappointed me. Don't even find it worth mentioning anymore.

Seems kind of hard to research. Don't know what the literature says about this, but you'd have to do some kind of psychological testing on newborns to be definitive I'd say.
