So for those of you that don't have a clue what I'm on about please read on :o)

One little tool (if you could call it that) that I discovered a few years back really helped me in my quest to working out who I was amongst the millions of other souls out there was a personality test called the Myers-Briggs personality type. There are a lot of free online tests out there that can give you "your type", usually consisting of 70-100 multiple choice questions.

I did a few of them and they all came back as infj so I suppose this would be "my type". I had always thought somehow that I was an extrovert for most of my life as I was good at parties, could throw down a joke or two and mix well with anyone...or so I thought. But even though I thought I was this crazy extrovert I knew deep down that I craved the solace of my own space and needed "recovery time" after big social gatherings.

I always put this down to being an only child but I always felt somehow odd about the way I felt, as though I was this kind of Arty extrovert that had to uphold this persona. My dilemmas brought me to the internet and I came across the Myers-Briggs type indicator test which was very life changing for me.

I felt such a sense of relief when I realised that I was actually an introvert all along as I had battled with such conflicting ideas and feelings for so much of my youth. I won't go into the nuts and bolts of my temperament etc, but my personality type was described so well in terms of what made me tick and how I felt versus how I responded to people that I was finally able to see who I was. In a personality sense that is :o)

So I urge you all to go and take a peek into your personality type and I hope it can help you as much as it helped me :o)

Hi Amber ~ well this was certainly an interesting diversion :-). I just took the test and discovered that yes, I am also INFJ! What's fascinating to me is not so much what type I am ~ but how surprisingly accurate the test is ~ just 72 questions can really nail the truth of your inner nature. Thanks! ~ Shelley

Great to meet another INFJ, it answered a lot of questions I was battling at the time!

Yup, I'm one - strong on the 'N'. Haven't seen this for awhile :) I was also relieved when I found out I wasn't 'weird', just 'wired' differently.

Lol, yes that's me too! I knew I'd find lots of other weirdo's like myself on here :o)

Im ISFP

Good to see another introvert :o)

Interesting, I just took this and apparently am INFP-T.
Lots more to read about this now..

Lots of INFP's here it seems :o)

I guess I should know but daaaaaa, what the hell does. INFJ stand for. You have to help this Old Fart over the hurdle of personality mnemonics. :-)

Hi there Larry, Google Myer-Briggs personality test and give it a whirl. I didn't put the link in as I didn't want to spam any particular site. There are 16 personality types that are defined, hence the wheel above. INFJ stands for introvert intuitive feeling judgement

Guess I'll have to check it out after I get through these 300 emails. Ha-ha. Thanks Amber.

Thanks. Might explain a lot! :)

Hi Amber, sorry I am an INFP

Very similar to mine Loes!!!

As we say it in Holland, there are more doggies called Fikkie:)))

Lol...I'm sure there are bound to be way more introverts on here than not!

Thanks Amber. This is an interesting subject. I believe I will take the test to see what I discover about myself.

Great one. Let us know!

We all have own personality to discover by self. Some of us do it by keeping time fillup by work or commitments. Others never do changes. Personally thank you very much. This diagram is well defined by long study and observations of human behavior.
Which POINT really keep you "down"?

This personality model of Myer-Briggs really helped me put the pieces of my puzzle together so to speak :o)

Fascinating :) really good stuff Thanks for sharing.
