Interesting how all of us so far got the 'N' (intuition) rather than 'S' (sensing) as I just read it's more common to have 'S' rather than 'N'.


I dont think S are common among most of personality disorders. The great exception is obsessive-compulsive, and those with these traits. Most personality disorders are likely introspective and have a great deal of day dreaming.

Of course many other pds resemble ocpd. But not borderline, if I had to guess the borderline mostly likely to be an INFP, but the borderline some times will be more extraverted or thinking.

I could say to a lesser extent the same thing about J of J/P, P being more common among PDs, and F from F/J, J being more common among PDs.

Also an I from E/I, probrably greatly increases the odd of a PD. However the I of MBTI is not the same of introversion in general sense. But introverts being 25% of the population, I am sure we are much more than 25% of psychiatric patients. Extroversion is probrably more common among histrionics and sociopaths, personality disorders that probrably cause more harm to others than to self.

I always test as INFJ. There ar every rare times I'll get INFP - I think P is too laid back to describe me.

I identify most as INFJ.

ENFP
In reality, I or E, idk.
This is a valid phrase:
"Personality disorders are psychological experience and behavior-resistant models, which differ significantly from his or her own cultural expectations."
Finns are often perceived as introverts.

INFJ : ridiculously accurate for me! One of the rarest types; only 1% of the population is INFJ which explains why I've always felt "different" from everyone else. Molding situations (particularly social situations) to fit my personality type has made the biggest improvement in my mental health symptoms overall. I am also an HSP (highly sensitive person) so I try to control for overstimulation as much as possible.

I am most certainly an INFP. All the way.

INTJ, but I personally don't think the test is legit.

I don't know if it's accurate because I don't know myself. If that doesn't make sense, imagine if you couldn't see yourself in mirrors/cameras, so you didn't know what you looked like. Then when you measure your face to test your face "type", you get X result. You don't know what to think of it because you don't even know what you look like. :(
