Myers Briggs Type? (put unknown if unsure): INTJ female. rarest type ever! (along with INFJ male) yeah, and I'm also turbulent, according to the quiz
Other?: I am a huge typology nerd, and I know a whole lot about MBTI, Socionics, and Enneagram. My favorite is Socionics because I think it's most accurate (I'm LII in Socionics). Enneagram is most fun to explore since it's full of emotional depth. I learned about Myers-Briggs first, when I was just a kid. It sparked my interest in "pop" personality psychology.

whooooa socionics is interesting! i just took the test and think i'm IEE-Ne or INFP. My enneagram is 8w7 though and that ALWAYS trips people up. I go into 5w4 sometimes when I'm depressed + cynical about the state of the world.
I struggle w being an 8 b/c folks often think it's about power over others when I really just want "power" over myself + crave some sense of stability in my environment. I definitely don't respect power/authority but that's not necessarily because I want it (I actually actively shy away from it, it's sort of a problem for me as I work with youth + sometimes it's genuinely in the young person's best interest to be authoritative). I WILL always state my mind however, but that's often perceived as being aggressive or that I would like everyone to 'agree with me,' but i'm actually just earnest and neurodivergent and have trouble lying about my true thougths/feelings on a subject no matter how opinionated, not that i want others to think or feel that way, i actually think the world is a better place when we all have diff thoughts, feelings, experiences and opinions. oof. leaves me feeling misunderstood!
anyways I just struggle with, like, whenever i google 'IEE infp + 8w7' or when i was more intp (sometimes still am) and googled intp + 8w7' it's like lots of forum threads saying the combination is impossible, haha. i just wanna fit in! i'm not tryna be different, lmao.
anyways :,) just some thoughts i'm having. thank you for sharing the socionics thing!
I can kind of relate to this being a INFP 9w8; I think my 8 wing is very strong, I act a lot more aggressive compared to other 9's I think. And I've also had people tell me I can't be a 9 and an INFP becuase they think "9's have to be sensors", or that "9's have to be extraverted feelers"... those people are pretty annoying lol
