what my mind says often has nothing to do with what I actually care about.
I sort of have this not sure if its the same thing. There is a big difference between what I actually want and what I want just because I'm capable of it.

I also always recommend some light Buddhist reading. For the philosophy's on life, of course. It's a great way to help steer life into your own control.

What things are usually in the latter category for you?

I personally found it very helpful. I used to feel out of control, which led to severe depression. I sought counseling, but was greatly disappointed. Instead, I sought out self help. Mostly Buddhism and mbti/enneagram discovery seemed to help, too. I tried journaling, but for the first couple of years I felt even crazier because I realized I couldn't pinpoint the root of my pain.
It was like my brain was tricking me, and I was writing thoughts that weren't actually my own.
Buddhism helped me on the path to greater awareness of myself and the world around me. Eventually, I felt like I could see more clearly again. Like [MENTION=6109]Halla74[/MENTION] suggested, it also focused on taking responsibility for ones self.
I don't know hard to explain. I guess I get caught up in societies or other people's views on things. Like societies version of success. Then I think I'm less of a person if I can't do that so I start doing things that aren't actually me just to prove something. When what I actually care about has NOTHING to do with that stuff. I get confused as to which stuff is really me.
I see. E3 fix?
No I'm a 4 fix. I think it has more to do with 7s not wanting to be limited.
Okay just the part about you getting confused about which stuff is "really you" was extremely 3-ish
4w3?
Well I'm not a 3. 3s do things for love and admiration and wear masks. I prefer to be genuine and I don't give a crap about anyones approval. Yea 4w3 but it's at the end of my tritype.
Yea okay .. curious now, what's your gut fix?
haha maybe we have the same tritype
You seem a bit cheery for that tritype I would expect more death and destruction. But sure why not.
hmm. I'm an 873. Have you looked into socionics yet? I'm curious to know what your sociotype is because we seem to have a lot of similarities.
None of the types really fit me they explain me like 60% at best. I pretty much think they made all that shit up it's retarded. ISTj is the closest one. And yea I already knew we were pretty similar from when I watched your videos awhile back.
hmm. Interesting. Well, I once suspected that the differences between SLE and LSI were more of a spectrum than a mutually exclusive separation. Its possible you're another one of those ambiverted STPs just like me, but in LSI form.
You seem a bit cheery for that tritype I would expect more death and destruction. But sure why not.
Oh I'm not ambiverted. I'm clearly introverted. I prefer to stick with MBTI it explains my functions 100%. If I ever need a version of MBTI that's on shrooms I will come to socionics.
I thought it was 4-5-8 tritype that has the darkness. That's the one thing why I don't identify with that tritype. 4-7-8 isn't dark at all and my 4 fix is the last fix.
I'm not such a very cheery type by the way.. depends on mood
Oh also, you with 7 being core type, how does 7's optimism work with "death" and "destruction"?
Lol at that. Socionics for me works better than MBTI, it's clearly individual who's explained better by which system
For me the 60% thing is true for MBTI.
Well if you have 7w8 and 8w7 first you are going to want to fuck some shit up. It's all the 8 influence of aggression.
Socionics blows it attracts a certain type of people. Intuitives who think more complicated equals better, people who are susceptible to cults and people who think they are too special to be boxed into MBTI. You probably fall under the too special category. You have an MBTI type you just like to self sabotage.
