I have take 5 different personality tests, based on this and got the same result every time: INFJ. And in the information you get, after have done the tests, it stood it's the rarest personality of all 16 types, all over the world, with just less than 2% having this personality.
But I'm a woman (& had to fill in both gender & age when doing the tests), and will be 45 years old in 6 months, so I know myself very well & I have worked both very hard & a lot with myself, mentally & emotionally since I was 22.
That spring, when I was 22 years, serveral things happened to me that changed both my whole life & the person I was then.
It started with a deep, severe depression that led to that I finally saw everything, both myself & my world, in a very shining bright light that reviled all the lies & illusions that I first then actually realised I had built my whole personality, my emotions, my principles, my moral standards on; my inner core of the person I had been building since birth was only A LIE. Nothing was true.
I, and both my life, my whole world & the things, my dreams I said & thought I wanted to have, wanted to be fullfilled, so my soon grown up life would be exactly the happy life I always had wanted. But NO! I had just lied to myself & to everyone else about what I REALLY wanted, what my true dreams & wishes were, what kind of life I actually NEEDED if I ever would feel happy, meaningful & content with living.
Everything else would sooner or later just have made me so lonely, miserable & feel that my life only was totally meaningless & not even worth living so then I would have ended everything. So then I had to restart. I had to start building up myself, even my inner core of my personality, to be able to become the person I actually wanted, and needed, to become if I wanted to be able to continue to live. And I then promised myself that I never ever again would lie to myself again, no matter what, no matter what it was about, even little meaningless things. Not a single lie ever again! And I've struggled to keep that promise; I have never again lied to myself & very, very seldom to anyone else either. I don't have any use for lies, lying doesn't give me anything & ironically so an I yet such a good liar so NOBODY have ever been able to even realise that I've just lied to them. So why then even bother to lie, when I don't get anything out of it? And it kind of breaks my promise to not lie to myself, so I don't lie AT ALL, TO ANYONE, NO MATTER WHAT.
So when doing these tests I, of course, never lied when answering the questions. Some was very hard to answer bc there was several answers I could choose between, but not being able to do that in the tests. So then I had to chose & maybe I chose the wrong answer to that specific question, when it could have gotten a total different answer... I don't know how much this could have affected the total, but I also did so many different tests and yet got the same type of personality each time. And yes, I think I may have this personality, but not 100%. I actually thought I would receive another result, at least after having done 5 different. Bc I'm pretty sure that one other personality, that's also quite rare, would fit me better...INTJ.
So how shall I think about this? When I did my first personality tests when I was younger I think I actually got the INTJ result.
I'm just confused, especially when now reading that my personality isn't the rarest among WOMEN, just men. Because it never stood anything about difference between men's & women's results when doing a personality test, I never read that anywhere else which is very odd bc every test was based on these 16 personality types.
From a very confused woman, who doesn't really know where she belongs (nowhere, I'm an alien ??) & had hoped that a personality test would give at least some sign of what to believe in...
