'The extrovert part is why I might have a hard time convincing my GP; I've always been a performer. It's the only job I've had (quit last year and have been sitting on my ass getting poor ever since)....
Had a therapist last year who dx me with GAD (generalised anxiety disorder) but that is only one manifestation of my AvPD, imo, as I show people what I am comfortable showing, and just showed her my...
I have many public personas. There really isn't any nourishment for the inner me in this society, so I just let it out when in my own company at home. It's important not to forget who you are, even...
Friendship is overrated. I have a couple of real friends, but I don't see them often, due to location. Other than that, I just spend time alone, indulging in hobbies. Aside from the invaluable few,...
When I have a pub gig - which I try not to do often - I see no reason to arrive hours before my first set. Social clubs freak out if the act isn't there around 7 - first spot's not 'til half nine,...
I wish I had two sets of everything, brain, hands etc, so I could do all the things I want to do. I've decided to set up a publishing company, rather than publish my novel through a vanity publisher...
I don't know if this thread is at fault, but I've been talking to myself a lot more lately. Or maybe I'm just noticing it more. Anyway, I regularly have fits of giggles out loud while watching TV and...
Haha I do plan ahead. Take today, for example; I had to be at an appointment at ten, so I set my alarm for eight. And slept through it. I don't do mornings; I work late. :P
^ I like that combination.
I was so late today, I didn't show up at all. Ah, well. Better luck next time.
My patience does not extend to everyone. Wilful ignorance is the one thing that is guaranteed to get on my last nerve.
A terrible person? Yeah, right. I've been in the Sisters of Charity soup kitchens on many occasions - tell the nuns there, who are feeding and clothing the homeless and destitute that Miss Germanotta...
Please. Contribution to society? People need to stop fawning over idols that encourage little girls to be prematurely sexualised, and redirect their attention to what is important in society. Mother...
I have different styles for my moods. My most often worn style is similar: skinny jeans, biker boots, band t-shirts etc. I also like to dress up for special occasions, but mostly I wear what's comfy...
If I make a mark in time, I can't say the mark is mine. I'm only the underline of the Word. Yes, I'm like him, just like you, I can't tell you what to do. Like everybody else I'm searching thru...
The meat dress wasn't original; it had been done before; as has everything else she has done. And not just her, but all the modern 'artists'. The biggest part of marketing a mainstream artist these...
I can relate to that.
Yeah...life in general is an unfulfilled void. I do little projects to act as lily pads in this fetid pond, but mostly, it's unfulfilling. I have an overwhelming sense of being trapped, due to lack...
Lmao! I never factor travel time in. Y'know, wherever I have to go, be it locally, a bus ride away, or the next city, I always leave myself twenty minutes. Similar to your friend, I think any...
I'd love to be a writer for a living, but since finishing my novel, I hit a brick wall haha. I don't have much experience of writing short articles or prose, which is where the regular jobs are, I...
Not an ENFP, but how I look has had - still does have - an effect on my personality. The base personality always remains, but it is hammered and knocked out of shape by experiences related to other...
Pasting a post from another forum: I hope Miss Germanotta's money, fame, and success sustain her when her human experience is over.
My online self is far more sociable, and perhaps confident. I never realised that. But this week we've had glorious weather, and it' highlighted how I have no one to enjoy it with! Partly, because...
Thanks for the clarification :)
That's a good explanation. When I'm out and about, I'm the biggest extrovert of the bunch, but I get quickly drained by external stimuli and take longer to recharge. I also really like my own...
You sound a lot like me! Also in your first post. I do go on solitary walks, trips etc now, because I force myself to. I've wasted too many years not having experiences because I had no one to share...
Yes, I think it's both, too. When I was younger, say from birth to around six or seven, I was greatly nurtured by the entire family, due to being the only child/grandchild. I got an excellent...
That's one of my pet hates!
Show up at my place without calling first.
Ah, the dream is dead for me. As long as I can achieve some things in life, it's better than nothing. And when I do dream about where I'd like to be in the future, and what I'd like to be doing, I...
Anywhere, really. Whenever I get on a plane, I always end up in Berlin, unless I'm working, so I'd like to just see as many places as possible. As for the missionary work, I'd probably work at an...
Yeah, it is a shame, but them's the breaks. I guess I experience love through creating, and nature, and art, and random things like drawing back the curtains to be greeted by a beautiful sunny day....
I tend to rein in my emotions when in public, unless I'm feeling manically energised; because that's fun to share.
Not sure; I steer clear of relationships. I always picked liars and cheats when I was younger, which has put me off for life. Now I just call undercover lover when I need some physical attention and...
I guess my introversion comes from the realisation early in life that I was unable to attain adequate nourishment from others. What I contributed emotionally, culturally, and otherwise was never...
I forgot about the coffee and tobacco; I don't really consider them 'drugs'. There are far more serious toxins people not only regularly ingest, but give to their children daily, for me to fret about...
Tom Hodgkinson's 'How To Be Idle' is a must-read. People place too much importance on wage slavery. A life revolving around making profit for someone else is a dull life indeed; I try to avoid...
English, French, German. I've had Germans mistake me for a local, and I imagine I approach linguistics in the same way I approach music, i.e. tonal (as well as verbal). I started learning Mandarin,...
Hahaha you're so like my sister. Me, a couple of tokes and I have to lie down. I reserve it for dealing with monthly cramps, just before bedtime. Otherwise, I'm neither use nor ornament, as my mother...
I can't afford to do drugs. But in the past, I was drawn to coke, alcohol, and other addictive activities, such as disordered eating and obsessive exercise. I don't know if being multi-addictive is...
Perhaps you should check out Vigilant Citizen and stop worshipping false idols.
Any fluoride-based toxin is a no-no for me.
ENTJ - Commandant You scored 100 I versus E, 20 N versus S, 100 F versus T, and 60 J versus P! Your ideal mate is...

Haha mine, too. I think my brain is too full, and so I skimp on most stuff, remembering only what I deem to be essential. It's a pity that doesn't include where my keys/paperwork are, or my diary. If...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiBcky4gbI8 I don't want to feel you die, But if that's the way that God has planned you, I'll put pennies on your eyes, and it will go away. See?
Although I fear failure, I'm used to it, so should stop fearing it and embrace it. A more irrational phobia I've developed over the years is of paper. I hate it! Paper can never be good! It creates...
Musician. Not very profitable at the moment, but I'm unemployable in any other field.
Oh goodness, yes, I used to have unrealistic fantasies about love, but the stark reality of terminal spinsterhood eventually laid those thoughts to rest.
I often wonder how much of my style is attributed to my physique, and not free personal preference.'
