INTJ or INTP?

For the most part, I think I show a lot more traits common to INTJ cognitive functions (common use of educated guesses, big picture thinking, confidence in my conclusions/decisions, etc), but I feel like I occasionally display traits of Ti and inferior Fe. I'm definitely INTx, but as far as J or P goes, I'm uncertain. What do you guys think?

P.S. Keep in mind that I'm fairly young (still in my teens). I also have mild depression (kind of on and off; heavily reliant on stress) and ADD.

You're still probably an INTJ. Displaying traits or functions of other types doesn't make you that type--it just makes you a human. MBTI is like a waffle, and we're syrup. Sure, we can stay mostly in one place, but we spill out into other categories as well. For instance, I'm a young xNFP who can appear xNFJ or xSFP sometimes. Let yourself be variable. :)

Ok, thanks :)

I wasn't certain if ADD and type had any sort of correlation; I had generally thought it wouldn't, but thought it best to include it just in case.
