Myerrs briggs Perosnality tests

Has anybody ever tried one of these? They are tests I think based on jungian
pyschlogical thought that reveal the individual to be one of 16 different
personality types or charecters, I have taken 5 of these online and have come
up as intp for 4 and infp for 1, So i think I am predominitilly intp, as a lot
of the descriptions match me and even some of them sound like dp symppons, like

>>>>
INTPs are pensive, analytical folks. They may venture so deeply into thought
as to seem detached, and often actually are oblivious to the world around them.
>>>>

Maybe there is some kind of link between people with an
Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Perceiving personnailty and a feeling of depersonlisation?
Anyway I think it would be interesting to see if there is a pattern to personality
types and Depersonlisation.

I don't know about you, but i'm satisfied not being a feeler. Emotions like love and happiness just get in the way of living a cold, logical, meaningful existance. This reminds me of ghost in the shell (not i-robot with that will smiff piece of shit). In the future when our man-made robots gain self awareness, I bet they'd all have been good friends of mine because we could relate on pretty much every level.

Emotions don't come natrually to me I spose, its not really something that bothers me at all to be honest, i just don't feel happy and sunny and feeling like I need to put on a happy face and be nice to people all the time, maybe that makes me a cynical miserable person but I don't feel like that, in fact I can sometimes be quite excitable and manic but I just don't feel empathy with people sometimes or feel like making people feel happy or feel like talking to people, i am defniatliy a person who likes his solitude and only talks to people when I feel the need.

I even think I post on here like a robot sometimes!

Ghost in the shell is a wicked manga, I probably like it as much as akira.

I've got a pretty coldhearted family...forced hugs...apathetic goodbyes...but i'm the worst of the bunch.

There is very little fraternal bonding gonig on here either. Mostly just a lot of bickering and punching each other. My own manic depressive state must have had its own special variance because i'd primarily only experience the physical effects of the mania (irritation, confused, cumpulsive) and depression (tired, apathy).

My emotive highs and lows were all while under the influence of something.

I really used to love the places my mind might wander, or a great aural or visual experience of some kind. I'm no longer comfortable with my own thoughts and that was my only solitude, and the physicalities of life are distorted and often frightening.

Whatever...my life doesn't suck that much, i'm a wizard and shit

I took the test as quickly as possible, not dwelling on the answers and came out as a Teacher Idealist. Hmmm. ENFT.

I'd have to read more about this, but the problem with the test for me is,

I have many outgoing, social parts to my personality. I used to act and sing in front of people. I am creative. I enjoy socializing, etc. Or rather...

these are my TRUE qualities without my DP/anxiety/depression

Through my whole life, I've struggled to be who I really am through the DP/DR, anxiety, depression.

When feeling like Hell, I can be a completely different type. When I used to feel better, or rather when younger and with more strength I could accomplish a LOT, enjoy life, despite feeling scared and lonely.

I honestly believe w/out my symptoms, I would have psychological problems I would have sought help for, but would have been successful in my chosen field of the Arts -- theatre, music. I made it as far as being in production at 20th Century Fox. Sort of the apex of my "career", but I couldn't carry on as the DP/DR/anxiety were killing me, literally.

I have a lot of characteristics of the introvert, but prefer being with people, but that is very difficult when I feel like Hell.

My world has gotten smaller and smaller over the years.

As I always say, due to a messed up family, I clearly have big psychological issues.
I also have psychiatric SYMPTOMS which are very limiting.

I think I'm a generally gregarious person under all of this garbage. It infuriates me. I.E. this has kept me from being the person I really am inside. This includes having a happy family, children, etc.

Frustrating
