Aren't they supposed to be the most common types? I barely see any on here

Idk my type, but I relate to Higuruma and Geto from Jujutsu Kaisen, Dazai from Bungo Stray Dogs for his abnormal view of life and, heh, death, Kuronuma Sawako for her social awkwardness and how she's always thinking about what the correct thing to say or do is and how it might affect others, and I think there's one more but I'm forgetting them.

Oh well.

How about you guys?? 😃

(Edited because the text looked repulsive. This is neater.)

Luckily, I got a new insight. I'm not even going to mention what types I think I am cause anything is possible at this point.

In the earliest years I can remember, all I remember is having lots of questions about things, very random and specific and abstract and petty things (but never asking them, only trying to answer them on my own) and noticing details about random things that I thought didn't make sense and so I tried to make sense of them on my own, and also random things that I kind of tied together as these sort of 'insights'. Like, 'It seems like people are never fully honest with each other,' or, 'I could do anything right now, like knock this glass off the counter or yell at that stranger, but I'm not going to. Why don't we do those things? I wonder if there is a version of reality where I did do it and what it looks like.'

I was always into metaphysical subjects and science and math and music and philosophical things. And I was always trying to be somebody; I found myself boring and would copy other characters because it seemed like everyone around me had a personality, but I didn't. But I never really thought about why I did that nor did I question it. I didn't think much about myself, but I did think much about things and other people.

That was me for the majority of my early years, but everything changed around 13, and it wasn't just because of puberty. I started encountering and learning about mental health and self-help advice (even toxic) and spiritual matters. I thought it was interesting and could possibly be a true version of reality, and everyone talked about it like it was so good and beneficial and healthy, so, thinking, 'I want to be healthy. I want to be the perfect person that never harms or bothers anybody else.' I got into it.

But... looking back, I think it made my life hard. I mean, I was still young. I heard that you should face yourself and face your problems/emotions (I used to actively hate emotions/self-love, anything that advocated for the self, as I found it incredibly selfish, due to certain influences) but all it made me do was overthink and I never really got anywhere.

I'd spend days overthinking personal matters and obsessing over specific details and getting trapped in this sort of guilt, thinking, 'If I don't solve this, I'll be a bad person.' 'cause that was how everyone made it sound. Now, there was a time I thought I was on the right path, that I was progressing, but I was horribly wrong and I would never want to be in that version of myself's delusional mindset again. Phew, not ever.

So, the way I pulled myself out of that period of depression, confusion, and delusion was through reasoning. I kept telling myself, every day, that it was incorrect, how and why it was incorrect, everything I was believing and trying to do, and that it has brought more harm than good. Slowly, I phased out of it and now I'm here... I went from 'spiritual' to nihilistic to agnostic yet I don't think this is the best I can be... when I was delusional, I at least had aspirations and a sense of purpose, but nah, not really anymore.

I could say how the people around me describe me; sensible, analytical, kind, caring, OCD, overthinker, indecisive, sensitive (during the delusional era, as an insult), level-headed, creative, smart (I'd beg to differ, though), talented

So,

for the trillionth time...

What do you think?

Also btw I love the flairs on here posting here is the best

It's said that INFPs, being Fi dominant, are very in tune with their emotions, but does this mean they value them at all? Could an INFP be very emotionally aware yet still reject, invalidate, and despise their feelings? Could they be aware yet still choose to stick with rational thinking?

Thing is, figuring out my type has been difficult because I learned to be aware of my own emotions yet they still strike me as irrational and partially insignificant. Having dove deep into cognitive functions and the theory and even the fact that MBTI isn't all that solid of a typology system in itself, I find myself relating to INTP, INFJ, and INFP the most. But only INFP because of the emotional awareness (at young ages) and morality (but everyone has morals, so), and INTP for that Ti-Ne pair, and INFJ for that Fe stuff. It might be useful to know that my Enneagram is 5w6 with sp6. Also, I'm not biased toward INFP because of how they can be portrayed as overly emotional, so that makes me skeptical of my own observations- which I prefer to be neutral.

I know that when it comes to these things, there is no one-size-fits-all, but if a problem like this could be sorted out, I think it'd offer some helpful insights into which type I'm most like, not necessarily just for the purpose of locking myself into one type.

Thank you for your time!
