And inspired by conversation in Yail's thread I did the M-B personality test and came out as a INFJ. This is the 'advocate' or 'counsellor' or 'visionary' depending on what website you look at. It means I am sensitive in connection with other people, creative, introverted, run on emotion and very intuitive. The more detailed descriptions are pretty spot-on for me. Sensitive and artistic but finding spontaneity stressful and needing structured time. Likes intimate contact with other people, but very introverted. The weak points or shortcomings are also very very spot on - emotionally over sensitive and reactive, extremely private and mistrusting, perfectionistic in work and relationships which can make me needy and demanding, and tendency to burn out easily.
I can see all this is extremely true for me.
Interesting. I'd usually be very dismissive of things like this, but it feels extremely accurate.
