Surprised about how much 2 years can change somebody

I took the same test around 2 years ago and it's really interesting to see the change, since I didn't have the intention of changing myself, this is the product of just my surroundings. Some changes I don't really like but I guess "losing" some parts is inevitable, hopefully it was a net positive gain
(I assume these changes reflect what happened to me through the last 2 years, from finding love to separating myself from my parents)
Hope someone finds this entertaining to think about, and I recommend to everybody taking the same test a few years down the road and comparing the results

23M, I feel like my results are kind of extreme.

Curious about what anyone would think about me from just seeing my results.

17M, guess what disorder(s) I have based on IPIP neo 300 results.

If you want the sub facets: https://www.personalityassessor.com/ipip300/results=1849852-994494/

Certain subfacets are affected greatly by the disorder(s). I assumed that I should answer as literally as possible without not letting the disorder(s) influence the answers, so some areas are pretty much skewed in weird ways as a result. Also some sub facets hover around the 50th percentile but there's more to it than just being average--at least in my opinion--because it's average in that one sub area of that facet is 0th percentile and the other is 100th percentile. Curious what yall think!

Chat, am I cooked?

Been reading up on personality frameworks lately and took JP’s Big 5 (which is more than 5 lol), Open Psychometrics Big 5, Myers-Briggs, and the Enneagram (don’t even get me started on that one).

Curious to hear any thoughts and insights on these and how thoroughly cooked I may be with such a high neuroticism score.

Here are the sub-traits from this one:

•	Compassion — 72 (Moderately High)

•	Politeness — 45 (Average)

•	Enthusiasm — 10 (Very Low)

•	Assertiveness — 22 (Low)

•	Industriousness — 6 (Very Low)

•	Orderliness — 80 (High)

•	Withdrawal — 97 (Exceptionally High)

•	Volatility — 84 (High)

•	Intellect — 11 (Low)

•	Aesthetics — 90 (Very High)

Open Psychometrics if they’re any good were these:

Extroversion - 4

Emotional Stability - 2

Agreeableness - 87

Conscientiousness - 89

Intellect/Imagination - 83

Go crazy.

Discord server about the science of personality change (conscientiousness & neuroticism)

hey! we had many communities on MBTI and Enneagrams, but very few about the Big 5 and personality science until recently. recently, theres been an upsurge in personality change research by academia. the research aims mainly at improving life outcomes and goal achievement by increasing conscientiousness and reducing neuroticism (although it also targets the other traits). the landmark study is the PEACH study, with a sample of 1.5k. in 2021, the PEACH study found that it's possible to induce large changes in Big 5 traits, and the changes are reflected in observations of relatives and friends, as well as lasting for several months (perhaps permanently).

ive been interested in the science of personality and human behavior for a few years, since then using many of the findings to change myself for my own desired outcomes. although goals vary by person, its very promising that you can just become much more disciplined or much less emotionally reactive by focusing on developing your personality.

2 years ago, we created Mindbuilding, a server dedicated to open-source tools and scientific research on methods for changing personality traits and cognitive abilities. we have many diaries and anecdotes currently, and almost 70 compiled studies.

big 5 predicts many outcomes in life and society, from academic performance, to job performance, to social and emotional satisfaction, to longevity and health. so naturally everyone has something to gain from a community that makes findings applicable.

here's the invite to the server: https://discord.gg/W5NE8Ps4qc
