Does anyone here have an interest in Myers Briggs or know about it, know their type etc?
My wife is a trained assessor or whatever they call it and is authorised to use MB. We have discussed it a lot to help us in our relationship before i begam to really look into AS and other things that could be the cause of some of my issues.
I'd be interested to understand the types of other aspies and have some discussion about how much you think is influenced by your ASD, how much is a result of practical necessities of ASD etc.
For the record my profile is
I - Obvious, fairly clear but i have some E tendancies, i think they are mostly based on workplace requirements, so fake ones that i've just got so used to having to do.
S - Clear S but with some Intuition. I think this is a false reading really becuase i think the intuition is more about learnt processing.
T - Off the scale, i have no feeling points at all any time i take the test, even if i go back over the points and try to find some while still being honest.
P - This is my conflict. My wife sums it up by saying i want to act P but i am forced to act J. My avoidance of comiting also leans me towards P. I want to balance everything, be comitment free and complete everything when i feel able to and think i need to, which is very P. But in reality i need the structure of a J style to keep on top of things. It's not as pronounced as the "people revert to opposite type when under extreme stress" theory, more of a balancing act where i try to be as P as possible and revert to J when needed.
I'm interested in others types and how they fit their ASD, AS or ADHD etc within that type.
