My time today was mostly consumed looking into what personality type I may have; or more practically, what, if any, personality disorders I may possess. So far what I’ve been able to gleam from mild research around the web, and archived internet discussions, was that I fell into two possible categories: the Myers-Briggs personality type of INTJ (introversion, intuition, thinking, judgment) or some type of schizoid personality disorder. The first one matches me to a ‘T’, but unfortunately I also meet a number of the criteria that are used to classify people into as schizoid personality. Could it be that having an INTJ personality type means that I automatically have a schizoid personality? I’m really not sure, and probably lack the background to make such a judgement, but the description of people possessing each is rather interesting.
