What the FUCK is my type?

**ClaudiaM** · 07-05-2011, 01:33 AM

I have been reading about socionics and stalking this forum for quite some time now, and I still do not know my type. I feel different, and act different, each day it seems. I am good with people, then I'm a recluse. I am happy and enjoying moments of oneness with the universe, then I want to die.

I have big dreams and the drive to get there, then I feel restless and trapped as I go through what I know is just a phase along the way.

Honestly, I just feel like I keep changing so much it's like there ARE no constants, and therefore I HAVE no type. Can this be?

Can anyone PLEASE help me out here?!!

Haha. Manic-depressive much?

Kidding.

Umm, I dunno what descriptive questions would be good to ask. Pics and/or video is usually optimal.

No, I'm really not. These fluctuations are only within me, and I don't let on too much to the outside world (at least not the I want to die moments/days, I just keep to myself when that happens).

And honestly, I am quite charming much of the time (as in, when I am in the mood/when I want to be). I don't say that as a brag thing, but because that is how I know and how I've been told I come off. Not in a fake way -- ewwww -- but because I connect with people.

In particular I am very good at connecting with crowds and making them like me while communicating confidently. I sometimes think I may be EIE because of this and other qualities, but I just don't know. I don't think I'm bossy enough to be EIE (in fairness, I don't know any EIEs in my life, bossiness is just something I've read about here).

The types I am debating between are EIE and ESI. I lean toward EIE, for reasons that are perhaps obvious, but I am not sure. Obviously.

Does anyone have a way to determine EIE typing? Because more and more, I feel I must be EIE.

Other info:
- As a child, I moved around a lot. Every year I was in a new state/school (I am in the United States). And I was 6 years old when I realized that I could re-invent myself at each new school. And that's what I did, for the next several years until I was 10 (and then my family stopped moving so much).
- I have a very strong sense of ethics, and I always have. Right and wrong is clear to me, and it really bothers me if someone breaks rules in a way that cheats or harms others. Others have commented that I shouldn't care if I am not being directly harmed, but I just cannot ignore injustice (some have considered me a bitch for this, for example when working at jobs where others were cheating the system and I did something about it).
- I do not always feel very physically coordinated. Dancing is something I avoid (unless lots of alcohol is involved

) and I have been known to "stumble" when just standing. lol
- I care very much about presenting myself well, and I strive to look good (though I do not always succeed at it)

I behave in a similar way, it's called being human. Whether you're in a good sociable mood or in a dark depressive mood has little do with type and a lot more to do with the levels of dopamine in your brain. Do you have any more information about yourself that is a little more specific? Maybe then we'll get closer to your type.

Tests can help to give an idea of where you stand, but already you seem to think it's Gamma SF, correct?
