  1. How would you rate your thinking?

    If INTP's as i understand are more inclined to act through a logical frame of mind, a few questions popped into my head: -Would the "quality" of our thought process affect our well being in a more profound way than other personality types? Yes. How I see it (as INTP>INFP) many INTPs think too...
  2. INTP's shouldn't try to help people

    Well I'm about to post something for INTPs, which no doubt is going to be viewed as too much. I realise now i'm an INFP (developed T via savagely suppressing my Fi) I've only been here 2weeks~, so i'm used to talking/frustratingly trying to express complex ideas to simple minded people (ie...

    I strongly believe a lot if not all INTPs could benefit from taking it down a notch. My INFJ helped me with that :rolleyes::D While types are types (not sure I accept 100% static yet) and thinkers will always be thinkers and the same for feelers, There still can be too much of a dominance and...

    "There are people that hate to think. People that think they think. and People that actually think" Does OCD count as thinking? I'd say no. Intuition? No again. Anxiety/that negative you? Still no. Analyzing? Possibly a no as well, because it can be automatic. With everything going on in...
  5. Pure O (OCD) anyone?

    Nope, did you actually read the link I shared before? Lol. I suffered for a long long time thinking that thinking could solve the problem. It's just not going to happen, though. No matter how smart someone may be, it ain't going to work that way. (i'm highly confrontational to expressed...
  6. Pure O (OCD) anyone?

    Wow... that's messed up. Not sure if it's worse than ECT though. I KNOW how debiliatating OCD can be, but I do believe it's managable/workable no matter how bad it may seem to self. (wonder if there's a BDD term for the brain?) Something else which may help is getting amongst nature. (helped...
  7. some more of my current thoughts about Fi

    Nice post! Thanks for sharing! (awesome timing) Had to cut out most of my post, in an tangetial silly mood. Straight to the (1 of the )point. I agree with the INFP identity thing, and the identity crisis I had/having right now, is most definitely due to T80%>T1% being in relationship with an...
  8. How science works (or so I think)

    I think science is overthought and under what I consider a satisfactory experiment quota. We want cloning, damn it! Richard Feynman Physicist: (to group of specialists) "Tell me everything in laymans terms and allow me to ask questions, and i'll understand in minutes what took you years". ...
  9. What are you currently playing? Rate it.

    Last game I played through was Alien: Isolation. It wasn't bad at all. Certainly better than Colonial Marines :facepalm: Lost the edge for me though, a level or two before I got the flame thrower. (yes I did play in the dark). Ending was kinda a lacklustre. Worth playing though...
  10. Best video game for INTP

    Hunted: The Demon's Forge. Suprisingly a Bethesda game many haven't heard of. £2 purchase at local game station, wasn't expecting much, especially never being interested in the genre before. Loved it. Since Unreal Tournament has been said, I feel obliged to mention Quake 2. One of the few...
  11. See ya, Spock... and Thanks for All the Fish.

    His last words: The phrase "don't fase me, bro" springs to mind xD I only recently got around to watching the original Star Trek movies (always preferred Star Wars - don't hate) Gotta say though, character development/relationships are so much better in Trek. Favourite bit with Spock, has...
  12. Movie Soundtracks

    Yeah I wasn't overjoyed when I heard that. On the, ahem bright side though it'll lead more people to watch Sunshine. Love 28 weeks later, I didn't realise Robert Carlyle was such a good actor. Imogen Poots suprised me with her acting. I thought it was going to be another teen wannabe, but to be...
  13. Learning poker

    Some basic advice: Best thing to do in microstakes is just play solid or Tight-Aggressive and premium cards, until you gain some decent experience. When you're new to poker, you should focus on playing your cards ultimately, when you miss, fold, when you hit, play it aggressively. Table...
  14. Can indulging your inferior Fe be addicting?

    Going through a INTP vs INFP thing right now. Just want to say, Emotions are addictive in general. Never mind if it's inferior. INTP worried about consequences from emotions, says it all really. (Many emotional people are against thinking or struggle to, because they're overwhelmed/clouded with...

    Thanks for your response. Yeah it was pretty bad. Childhood>blame self>self destruct>attempted armed robbery at 16.

  17. INFP males and the possible development of artficial J functions as defense mechanisms

    Just want to say/confirm. Tested as INTP MALE, met INFJ FEMALE, and now after extended period of being with her (and other life changes shaking/destroying my lifelong supressed F and my T 80%~ foundation which my identity was built on), I am now thinking(pretty sure after a night of...
  18. Addiction/Alcoholism, AA/NA and the xNTP

    LOL. Yeah i've had something similar that. Stimulant fatigue, that's no fun either. That sounds like a plan! One i'm jealous of actually. I can't count the number of times I've failed to do things bit by bit. Always been 100% or 0%. Maybe i'll take method acting lessons from a turtoise, may...
  19. Are INFPs useless?

    Wait.. so being INTP pretty much my whole life, T%80 drops down to T%1 being with INFJ GF, and basically now you're saying i'm not an INFP, but INFJ? I don't find that amusing at all *continues to pretend to act very seriously* (i'm actually devasted and barely holding back the tears)
  20. Ask SpaceYeti, mk II

    What do you think of the book "Average is Over"? and what do you predict may actually happen in the not so distant future (30-50 yearS) in regard to this? What's the deal exactly with, ADHD and medication and enlisting? I've read you have to be off meds for 2+ years before signing up, and...
  21. Pure O (OCD) anyone?

    I actually never read any of it as whining, btw. Although saying "I hate whining as much as the next guy" is kinda whiny" :p Don't worry about it. You should see what they're (I have been part) like on the ADHD forum when someone is off on an emotional one. It's kinda reassuring. You were...
  22. Pure O (OCD) anyone?

    I learnt to acknowledge, not feel any thing about, not cast judgement, then wave bye bye to it. "next please" (or next thought please). You can train yourself to deal with it basically. I remember when I first remembered "dem thoughts" oh man that sucked. You CAN "get over it" or minimise the...
  23. Learning poker

    +1 I owned Super System II. Good stuff for a beginner. Read 20+books since then though. Don't play poker if you're dealing with emotional problems or developing F function. No matter how skilled you are.... tiiiiiiiiiiiilt :( I've had to permantly walk away from Poker, since being in an...
  24. How Often Do You Cry?

    Grew up not crying. Early 20s, tried to make self cry/unprogramming my own anti-cry setup as intended to Act. Cried in few movies, music+scenes = , more and more. INFJ GF at 26, I was crying more than her at one point, lol, dealing with some past history though. Not crying much in the past ooo...

  30. Addiction/Alcoholism, AA/NA and the xNTP

    Kinda going through an addiction right now. It's not an "addiction addiction" as i've noticed many other INTPs note it as. I'm being very irresponsible with my ADD medication. I took street drugs (nothing too serious) for around a year at 17 whilst amongst the wrong crowd, didn't haven't a...

  33. Unsolicited advice... is this why we do it?

    Hyper responsibility (OCD) Just found out about this. Currently trying to figure it all out and connect all the dots with a few other things. ^Urge to help others/solve their problems/avoid pain/suffering. Problems with social boundaries. Feel guilt for not helping. Feel responsible for. Etc...

    As awesome as Ubuntu is, it's just too overwhelming unless you have a history of experience and knowledge first to go off. There's so much you can modify and change, the superficial aspects is just the tip of the iceberg. If you're in no particular rush though and you can learn to say no and...

    What Jenny said about technical text and copying chucks of thought process via that. AND Not flexing feelings. It shows... i've not seen one single lol from anyone in the week i've been here, and several people have "pointed out" I'm not an INTP or introvert (above, lol). No... i've just...
  38. What am I?

    I don't think MBTI should be considered valid in childhood, because there are so many changes going on. For example, to get a BPD diagnosis, it won't be diagnosed before 18, because of teenagers being all over the place any way. Another reason, our brains are immature and we don't recognise...
  39. What is it like being a genious?

    I agree, and I used to specialise in trolling said Elite, but right now you're being hypocritical. You're attacking hipsters for their beliefs/views/lifestyles... Where exactly does that NEED to come into the equation? In reality you're probably using the common negative stereotype of hipsters...
  40. What is it like being a genious?

    Mine's called delayed stupidity recognition It was kinda obvious you *intentionally* spelt it wrong by the way. (whoops :D) On a more serious note, I don't believe what you just said. Maybe that makes me ASD. But let's not do this all day.
  41. How do you feel about consciously developing your F?

    I used to think when I was younger, feelings just get in the way of decision making or solving problems. That view has a changed a little bit since. I'm curious how everyone else approaches this, well it's more than a topic really.

    First time felt loneliness @ 26 Alone whole life though So detatched, numbed, isolated and angry, and pushing everyone away, I did not notice. Barely feel it now, but before felt nothing, ever, was always puzzled by peoples behaviours, but now I understand. Crazy looking back on it. :(
  48. which type struggles the most with life?

    Perhaps if it was which type struggles the most with PEOPLE, Wouldn't be suprised if it was INTPs. Struggles most with life though? Well I actually don't know that many types personally, I am close to an INFJ though, and to be fair they seem to have it pretty tough. (maybe cause dating me...
