    Post Socionics Newbie :)

    Hello, my name is UraniaIsis . I became acquainted with socionics while researching MBTI, Jung's cognitive functions, and Enneagram. After some tumultuous highs and lows in my life lately, all three of these psychoanalytical tools have been helping me to understand myself and have been helping me understand and cope with quite some dysfunctional people in my life .

    Hi everyone! My name is Ann, I've been studying socionics for almost a year. Don't know a lot about MBTI, but I think that they are quite similar. I must say that studying socionics is a LOT OF FUN, I type people every single day and I'm ready to share my experience with others.

    Hello Ann, you have me beat. I've only been researching MBTI for the past two months. From what I understand about both MBTI and Socionics are that they incorporate elements of Carl Jung's cognitive functions. So far this psychoanalytical stuff has been saving my sanity.

    For Capitalist Pig: Thank you.

    That's very useful anyway. I would recomend socionics more, because I think that it goes deeper and the probability of making mistake is less. MBTI is more surface science in my opinion.

    Welcome.
    Projection is ordinary. Person A projects at person B, hoping tovalidate something about person A by the response of person B. However, person B, not wanting to be an obejct of someone elses ego and guarding against existential terror constructs a personality which protects his ego and maintain a certain sense of a robust and real self that is different and separate from person A. Sadly, this robust and real self, cut off by defenses of character from the rest of the world, is quite vulnerable and fragile given that it is imaginary and propped up through external feed back. Person B is dimly aware of this and defends against it all the more, even desperately projecting his anxieties back onto person A, with the hope of shoring up his ego with salubrious validation. All of this happens without A or B acknowledging it, of course. Because to face up to it consciously is shocking, in that this is all anybody is doing or can do and it seems absurd when you realize how pathetic it is.

    @wacey & @LIIbrarian
    Thank you . I notice that a lot of folks are misreading my name, and at quick glance I tend to also.

    My avatar is actually a cropped picture from a fantasy wallpaper somewhere on the interwebz. If I were to lose a few extra pounds, I would look pretty darn close. I'm a bit more square at the jaw.

    I live in the Central Valley. Mer-dead County specifically.

    No, it's "you're anal, sis." I'm always too technical.
