As an INTP-T, this video is so damn accurate to me. I feel this struggle all the time. In my society, i'm such an awkward socially, i'm more like an alien more than a human. Also, i'm always being misunderstood very often, that's why i'm really hard to trust people. In my school, i got a 1st rank at my class, and i feel ambition, i'm afraid if my rank goes down, but also i'm so lazy to study. Also, in my school, i don't have many friends bc my topics of conversation is really different from others. I'm more prefer to talk about psychology, economy, politics, history, science, conspiration theory, while the other girls at my age (middle schooler) is always talking about boys, crush, love, while i think those topics are a waste of time. This struggle is really hard, sometimes i wanna have so many close friends, but i can't 😥.
I hope that you find value and validation from knowing your type early on in life. Don't worry, if you focus some energy on trying to understand other people, and on not worrying so much what they think of you, and instead just accepting that people will always think you're weird, and that's ok, I'm sure you'll find happiness and contentment, as I have. Just wish it didn't take me 30 years to figure it out.
I believe all INTPs are sharing the same struggles, and you will need to find that one friend, maybe a life partner, with different personality to help you through that. Granted nothing wrong with us being INTPs, but this personality can only be successful in life with support from others imo.
It's worth some effort now to get good or better grades.(Think of them as a plan B policy). Boys and girls are only really interested in each other when their hormones hijack their brains (so it's really the other girls that are more like aliens). They may hijack yours oneday. Best to make friends with people who have similar interests as yourself. Maybe join a debating or astronomy club. Spend energy creating a good life for yourself first, rather that worrying about how you will share it with one ther person.
I am an INTP the struggle is real. When I knew I am an intp I was happy that I am a genius. But the struggle I am facing is just too much to handle. It took 3 years for me finish one thing that an ordinary person would take only 6 to 8 months. I would have loved having deep knowledge in one thing rather than having knowledge in everything. I would have loved having interest in one thing so that I would have not be exhausted while doing things I need to do
Even as an INTP I don’t fit with other INTPs. They’re out building rocket ships and polishing their Nobel prizes. Here I am in spaghetti stained shirt, painting a tiny pink flower on a canvas while eating banana bread slices and leaving laundry in the dryer for the 4th time in a row.
Can’t relate. As an INTP, sometimes i feel like i only ever want to hang out with someone just like me. I love being around people who I know understand me just right.
Thanks! Growing up as an INTP female, I always felt like I was outside the human race, looking in. I never understood how people could be so emotional in situations that required mental clarity, how they could enjoy shallow pursuits that I found utterly boring (like tv), why they hated being alone, why they didn't read voraciously, why I was supposed to care about nothing but clothes, makeup, fashion, and boys just because I was female, etc etc. I was constantly criticized for being "anti-social", "cold", "aloof", "stuck up", "weird", "unfeminine". When I discovered my Meyer-Briggs category, it all began to make sense.
8. Fear of being misunderstood is my kryptonite. There is only one person who saw every corner of my brain and was able to hold space, providing reassurance, with out pushing me to become the version they thought was best for me before I was ready to take that step. It was so cleansing for my soul, I had the clarity to think about who I was and discover what interested me. He would spark ideas that lit up my desire to absorb all the paths my brain was free to explore everything closed off before. We would have the most interesting conversations about things that mattered. Always finishing each other’s thoughts, almost reading minds. His brain waves perfectly danced with mine, he was my brain soul mate. We would talk for hours and hours, like 5 hours of constant discussion. Challenging and pushing each other to grow mentally to become a better human. I miss that so so much. He betrayed me and we became strangers. He hurt me more than anyone could. I can forgive the things he did, it’s his abandonment as if it was nothing, making is look effortless. Maybe he was faking it. Even if he was, I would rather the fake him, seeing me and having that relationship back and not be alone with no one to see me. People try but I won’t find another relationship like that.
As an INTP, all of these called me out. XD ESPECIALLY the 2nd one. I can't recall how many ideas and projects, and career interests I went through and abandoned either before even finishing or without even starting. This is why I ended up dropping out of college after changing my major 3 times in 1 year and only ever worked in food service, because I'm interested in so many things that I have no idea which one to pick, as we get just 1 option and school is too expensive to keep changing majors often, and I'm still trying to figure out what I want to be when I "grow up." I've actually been working on starting a novel/graphic novel series since I was 19, but so far, I've been coming up with a bunch of characters and backgrounds, and changing the plot that it's been almost 20 years, and still no book, just notes. I only subvert the 4th one for being solid in my decision to never have kids, though. But everything else is accurate.

Try developing good habits and eating a healthy diet Discipline is what separates the masters from the mediocre Remove distractions and focuse on the tasks at hand Hope this helped!
That intp's can't always state their emotions understandably, as said at 8:16, is due to their depth of thinking. They may want to for the perfect words for a couple of weeks or months. It is in their nature to think any matter from all possible aspects. If they hurry, they may be misunderstood or they don't even find any suitable words, if they take their time, opportunity to come back to the question at hand may not rise, or they may not be believed for their lack of emotion after so much time.
It's true as an into in my whole life I've always felt misunderstood that's why i don't like group projects because when i creat an idea they always misunderstood it also of how i think or feel.
I’m have INTP type and I have been for various reasons in mental hospital ~6 months and I have asparger and trust me it is true that INTP-s have hard live in society when you don’t understand full people around you. So if you are another type of personality pls be gentle with us. (:
I just took a personality test yesterday and came out as INTP and I can’t explain how relived I am that I’m not alone lol. I was labeled as gifted in Elementary as everything came easy to me and really wouldn’t try on subjects as it was “easy” as I grew up Middle School and High School was easy as well but way more work, like Long Division etc. and I always had problems with teachers asking me to show my work. So I’ve struggled with laziness and always questioning why school is even important especially in this day and age where everything is online. And as a kid I wanted to be an Astro-Physicist but dropped that idea after I realized I have to get a PhD whic gc just means more school 😅
Hello i am also an intp. The story you said is literary me. We definitely share the same worldview. can we be friends online? your social media pls? I am tired of this life. I desperately need to talk to someone who thinks like me.
I just found out that I’m a INTP. For the first time in my life, I finally understand why I am the way I am. I never followed the path of hard study. My grades were B level in school. Which isn’t bad considering that I didn’t read any of my study books. I’m very much an introvert, but when I’m around people. I somehow seem to be in the middle of it. I have something that annoys me a lot and that is awkward silence when hanging with people. So I try to come up with something to say. Just to break that pattern. But if I’m alone and none calls me to hang out or anything. I’m like a ghost, cause I never call anyone to hang out. I enjoy my solitude. I only wish that we would have more empathetic emotions. Cause it very hard to understand at times, why from our point of view people over react. Motivation to do anything is a big curse as well. But I’m going to try to turn that around, at least a little. I’m going to setup goals for some things that I want to achieve and try my best to push myself to reach them.
I would rephrase second point because it's not like we lose all motivation but rather our vivid imagination allow us to spend out motivation points on sitting in front of the wall and imagining things that you are motivated about for hours, then returning to reality and feel achieved for some time (hence no motivation) I would also disagree about stubborness. Never in my life i wasn't stubborn if i am wrong. I did felt terrible admitting it sometimes but i did. In fact i generally find it helpful if someone point to my mistake. Once i discussed something with my friend (it was basically a question about logical reasoning of some certain situation). This question bugged me for a long time after and then i realized i was wrong (but didn't have contacts to this guy). 3 years later we met again and first thing i did is I said to him i was wrong then. However he didn't remember any conversation and laughed at me that i still was thinking about smth like this.
I believe all introverted types could get along with all personality types, INTPs gets mentally struggled a lot compared to other personality types, it is hard or a burden for them to open up their emotions. I believe they are the most gentle thinkers, they desire to be polite, even if they prefer to be logical, and unique.
It seems like everybody rejects me. The only thing I can think of is they see me as being smarter than them... So that makes them mad. I don't treat people as if they are stupid.
Before procrastinating, I see a task from start to end and if it's something I can do in one day or in last few hours, I just put it off. But yes, I do understand that tasks are learned and done better when a person gives little time everyday.
Lack of motivation is so terrible. I have so many great ideas, and I know I've got the potential to be great. If I wasn't so prone to procrastination and abandoning projects, I could be in an amazing place in life right now...
why is this so relatable,, yes I need my alone time but i hate being ignored or alienated,in this society you have to be a extrovert if you wannna have friends. yes I lack motivation in my life, i easily get bored with stuff i was excited about earlier and even if i get some motivation, it doesn't lasts long. i am really naive and stubborn when it comes to any type of relationship and then i end up being vulnerable, and ofc i can never take a proper decision, even if i take one i know already that i will regret it , i was born with social awkwardness, i just can't go in front of. a person and talk like i am full of shyness and tho i have fear of being misunderstood i am always misunderstood, it's not easy being the weird person
Ohhh now it all makes sense thanks for making it clearer for me to understand my weird-ass self. I grew up with few friends but those few friends were usually close to me and weird as well. Currently struggling in finding that special someone to understand me. I feel like I scare everyone off or they just get bored of or impatient with me. The struggle is real, at least I’m happy being alone if need be.
I think too much, I need a good reason to do something, and decide if it’s worth it or not. Sometimes I know I need to do it, like waking up out of bed, but I always think questions like, ‘what’s the point?’
I really am INTP, but i am not naive at all, i can be motivated when i want to, and even tho i hate social interaction, I definitely do have the potential to be social. But, i myself created these characteristics by noticing what was bad in myself and causing me harm
As an INTP I have problems with motivation. Not because I cannot focus or so, but because of I always before project/deal think about the worst ending of this problem, and thinking like I’m not in my worst side, it’s ok 😅
Because loneliness and being Alone is different , we like to be alone most of the time but we feel lonely because it's like living in a world of aliens who do not understand you at all , and you do understand them only because you have studied their behavior and tried to mimic their comunication.
I find motivation not as hard as it seems some do. If it sparkles ill play with it endlessly. Im eternally open to being wrong bc as i look i regurlarly learn how much more there is to know. I grew up in a home with an older sibling who is just competent enough to appear functional and is a deviant. I spent my entire youth explaining the problems around me and being ignored, also ignored because i was high functioning and didnt "need" help. Loneliness is an achilles heel as such, but my struggles have forced me to become self motivated, there was just no other option.
#1 - Does not apply to all INTPs. I enjoy the isolation. #2 - 100% agree #3 - Agree but I am always aware of my surroundings including people. I just don't care what they think most of the time. #4 - Yes, this is true #5 - This can be true but I don't get so frustrated #6 - Most people are not to be trusted #7 - Not true for me. Most people mistake me for an INFP until I explain how dumb they sound. #8 - Although it is true most can't keep up, I'll explain myself in a way only intelligent people will understand. So if you misunderstand me, well...
I strongly suspect you are dishonest, most people don't even know what IN.. anything means and blowing up your own whistle how others can't understand you...that isn't going to give you credibility. There is a good change they have a reason why their and your conclusion wouldn't meet and perhaps just you lack the capacity to see it. also, keeping your mind open even the ideas that you can't comprehend is a good idea, because you never know
Searching an INTP who shares the same worldview as me. So if you are an INTP, can we be friends online? your social media pls? I am tired of this life. I desperately need to talk to someone who thinks like me.
You missed on most naive. I'm with an ISFP that thanks to her Ne trickster is clueless to others' motives. It was one of her best features as I kept matching on apps with INFPs that used their Ne to see motives that weren't there in me and lacking Ne I was able to be accepted at face value for a change which was refreshing.
INTP’s there is a way to achieve a goal. First find what you’re trying to do. Just pick one goal. Find what steps need to be done to achieve the goal. Next find what time of the day motivation is the highest and for how long. Next schedule time everyday at the time to work on the project and just do it. Also things like decluttering and cleaning has to be scheduled otherwise entropy will just build up in my living space. I found for me I have to own very little and from time to time sell things or donate them because my energy is very low for organizing and caring for objects.
Now it not in so much that we do not WANT to let people in as being so much in our heads and being oblivious our surrounds. We are also aware that hardly no one is interested in the things we are interested in.
When I was in college, I tried to do business, and when I started earning 2000 dollars a month I lost motivation and quit completely. Then after that I tried to make RUclips and when I reached 200k followers suddenly I lost motivation again and quit completely. I hate this, but I really lose the motivation to do the things I've already done.
I think one reason I have problems with people is because I can see various outcomes ahead of time. They think there is no way I can see it. To me it is common sense.
As an INTP-T i didn't really know that it's just my personality...i thought i had alexithymia lol..this was very helpful..i got to know myself a little better
I am always being rejected by people. I have wondered if it is because I am INTP. I think people should be willing to accept others that aren't exactly like them.
As an INTP, i'd like to disagree with the wording at 2:41. "their attention span may be a stumbling block." While yes, we may have trouble focusing on things, it isn't our attention span. It's our motivation, how much we like doing something. I, personally, have been immersed in a project for hours end because I was interested in the project and I felt highly motivated to complete it. Attention span isn't an issue, motivation is.
Hmm, I have traits and ended up with test results of both intj and intp, but I honestly seem to have more common traits with intp, especially after watching this video
I can understand that, I used to be INTJ for many years, but then I started to become an INTP for the last few years. The main reason someone transforms between them is "hopeless". Since INTJs can see the future more than others, they will lose the hop from the 2nd or 3rd attempts, they just need to compare the tests they've done with the other possibilities they didn't, so they will know the result of the other 99 attempts without doing it. And, when they face a real challenge, they will not try to go in another direction in their life, because INTJs have basics and rules in their life... And you can think about what will happen next. To make it more clear, what will INTJ do in his/ her waiting time? Now Imagine the same thing if an INTJ waited for SOOOO long time, like months or years, without having the power or money to find a new good hobby (for example: reading, learning languages, sports,..). They will just keep thinking in their World, then, they will try to avoid the bad feelings that will come by doing anything else, then they will start to lose the motivation over time, and will get used to useless hobbies they usually hated to spend time on it... And, step by step, they will transform into INTP, and that's what happened to me. Maybe you feel that you are both because your free time in your schedule increased, or because you start to feel hopeless with your life, mostly when people didn't understand you..... Just try to fight your laziness, and find anything to fill the gap in your time. Being INTJ is much better than being INTP. No offenses, But I hope that you get the idea.
Number 1 problem solved with internet community, like how I comment on this video while I am INTP. Not meeting the people make it easier to cominicate. You can see ALOT of INTPs commentings here and there on random videos on RUclips.
As n INTP i suffers alot being misunderstood by people...whenever m just trying to open up n share my opinion they misunderstand me..but people who r close to me understands me so its a bit easy for me...n thats how m not good at making new friends either..
I'm INTP and this video is accurate. I'm super smart and basically right about most things way before most people...but it doesn't matter because nobody believes me or takes me seriously, accept my wife and brother who have seen me predict the future multiple times and now they trust me. But growing up I was an outcast and a weird conspiracy theorist..but now that all my wild theories have come true, my family has acknowledged that I was right for all those years. The theories I have now are taken more seriously, so that's good.
Hey, do you have some examples? I'm struggling with that too most of the time.. But there is people who indeed consider me smart and intellectual but it's came from more mature people's and more aged also by some correlation.. cause the folks my age(23) most of them are stupid, silly giggling dolls. I can have a good conversion only with 30 - 40+ years old guys on my job. But it's just being said that there is more chance to find mature human and someone to talk more deeply around those ages.
The brotherhood. Hello aliens, weirdos, whatever you have been called by "normal people", we all share the same mindset here. As a fucking INTP I love seeing a lot of aliens woohoo. 🎉
This would fit by 90% here too. Some nor so much ,i have tolerance for others i simply cant stand BS. Ans had had to learn keeping m mouth shout telling out loud truth what i think. Being INTP and in the High funtioning ASD has so much in common
i was put in the ISTJ camp but have a lot of these problems too. The test was right in the middle of both the S and the J so I'm probably somewhere in-between?
I am intp t And this is so accurate because I AM MISUNDERSTOOD ALL THE TIME And yes I still fear to trust people because I am afraid they will misunderstand me and I will be alienated once again
To my fellow INTPs read the subtle art of not giving a f*ck, it explores why motivation is a waste of time. INTPs live in our heads, we have a very rich and colourful internal environment. We take for granted that everyone is as deep thinking and analytical as we are, they’re not. They are always out chasing what we are born with, an inner calm. My best friend is Mr Extrovert and is always asking me to come to his boxing club with him. He has a majorly stressful job and uses boxing to excise all that tension. He’s verging on the edge of a breakdown (his words, not mine) has ruined a ligament in his knee with all this exercise and needs a nose job that booked for 1 months time because it got broken by accident when he was boxing and now he can only breathe out one side of his nose. We earn the same money but I work for myself caring for the elderly in a medical capacity where they need an appointment to come see me. Everyday is quiet and easy, people think I’m really zen. Which pleases me. Don’t try too hard, find someone you don’t mind doing and don’t live extravagantly. The rest of the time, I live in my head, and it’s a quirky place 😊😊
I disagree with number 5, stubbornness. INTP are always open to modifying their opinions according to new information. This one of their strongest points. Hence the indecision spoken of earlier because of their shifting opinions.

Hello i am also an intp. The story you said is literary me. We definitely share the same worldview. can we be friends online? your social media pls?
I am tired of this life. I desperately need to talk to someone who thinks like me.
I just found out that I’m a INTP.
For the first time in my life, I finally understand why I am the way I am.
I never followed the path of hard study.
My grades were B level in school.
Which isn’t bad considering that I didn’t read any of my study books.
I’m very much an introvert, but when I’m around people. I somehow seem to be in the middle of it.
I have something that annoys me a lot and that is awkward silence when hanging with people. So I try to come up with something to say. Just to break that pattern.
But if I’m alone and none calls me to hang out or anything. I’m like a ghost, cause I never call anyone to hang out.
I enjoy my solitude.
I only wish that we would have more empathetic emotions.
Cause it very hard to understand at times, why from our point of view people over react.
Motivation to do anything is a big curse as well.
But I’m going to try to turn that around, at least a little.
I’m going to setup goals for some things that I want to achieve and try my best to push myself to reach them.
I would rephrase second point because it's not like we lose all motivation but rather our vivid imagination allow us to spend out motivation points on sitting in front of the wall and imagining things that you are motivated about for hours, then returning to reality and feel achieved for some time (hence no motivation)
I would also disagree about stubborness. Never in my life i wasn't stubborn if i am wrong. I did felt terrible admitting it sometimes but i did. In fact i generally find it helpful if someone point to my mistake. Once i discussed something with my friend (it was basically a question about logical reasoning of some certain situation). This question bugged me for a long time after and then i realized i was wrong (but didn't have contacts to this guy). 3 years later we met again and first thing i did is I said to him i was wrong then. However he didn't remember any conversation and laughed at me that i still was thinking about smth like this.
Interesting insight!
I believe all introverted types could get along with all personality types, INTPs gets mentally struggled a lot compared to other personality types, it is hard or a burden for them to open up their emotions. I believe they are the most gentle thinkers, they desire to be polite, even if they prefer to be logical, and unique.
It seems like everybody rejects me. The only thing I can think of is they see me as being smarter than them... So that makes them mad. I don't treat people as if they are stupid.
the pain .... the struggle wow, spot on.
Thank you!
Before procrastinating, I see a task from start to end and if it's something I can do in one day or in last few hours, I just put it off. But yes, I do understand that tasks are learned and done better when a person gives little time everyday.
Thanks for sharing!
Lack of motivation is so terrible. I have so many great ideas, and I know I've got the potential to be great. If I wasn't so prone to procrastination and abandoning projects, I could be in an amazing place in life right now...
Love that!
why is this so relatable,,
yes I need my alone time but i hate being ignored or alienated,in this society you have to be a extrovert if you wannna have friends.
yes I lack motivation in my life, i easily get bored with stuff i was excited about earlier and even if i get some motivation, it doesn't lasts long. i am really naive and stubborn when it comes to any type of relationship and then i end up being vulnerable, and ofc i can never take a proper decision, even if i take one i know already that i will regret it , i was born with social awkwardness, i just can't go in front of. a person and talk like i am full of shyness and tho i have fear of being misunderstood i am always misunderstood, it's not easy being the weird person
Ohhh now it all makes sense thanks for making it clearer for me to understand my weird-ass self. I grew up with few friends but those few friends were usually close to me and weird as well. Currently struggling in finding that special someone to understand me. I feel like I scare everyone off or they just get bored of or impatient with me. The struggle is real, at least I’m happy being alone if need be.
Glad to hear it
As an intp this is very useful to know my weaknesses and try to change them but it’s gonna take a while to change
This whole playlist is very useful ---> bit.ly/3PjEbIe
@@PsychologyRefresh thank you
@@MikealAlex You're welcome!
The struggle is worse for an INTP that also has combat related PTSD and depression. Makes the isolation and lack of motivation get debilitating.

I think too much, I need a good reason to do something, and decide if it’s worth it or not.
Sometimes I know I need to do it, like waking up out of bed, but I always think questions like, ‘what’s the point?’
This video sent shivers down my spine with its accuracy.
Never seen a video more accurate 💯💯
I really am INTP, but i am not naive at all, i can be motivated when i want to, and even tho i hate social interaction, I definitely do have the potential to be social. But, i myself created these characteristics by noticing what was bad in myself and causing me harm
Thanks for sharing!
I don't really think I'm stubborn
Same here
As an INTP I have problems with motivation. Not because I cannot focus or so, but because of I always before project/deal think about the worst ending of this problem, and thinking like I’m not in my worst side, it’s ok 😅
Thank you for bringing up your perspective!
Broo that's me I always think about every outcome and the bad things that could happen like getting canceled
B4 2020, #2 was a big problem for me. Try INTP with ADHD on for size.
Because loneliness and being Alone is different , we like to be alone most of the time but we feel lonely because it's like living in a world of aliens who do not understand you at all , and you do understand them only because you have studied their behavior and tried to mimic their comunication.
Its not about intp, its autism
I find motivation not as hard as it seems some do. If it sparkles ill play with it endlessly. Im eternally open to being wrong bc as i look i regurlarly learn how much more there is to know. I grew up in a home with an older sibling who is just competent enough to appear functional and is a deviant. I spent my entire youth explaining the problems around me and being ignored, also ignored because i was high functioning and didnt "need" help. Loneliness is an achilles heel as such, but my struggles have forced me to become self motivated, there was just no other option.
As an intp-a, i have to say this summarization is so accurate. I would really like to see what can be done to mitigate these struggles.
"Being different can make you feel different."
well i personally couldnt tell you why
Theyre "naive" but "sceptical". Aint that something
Which one are you?
Yeah I caught that too. It is indicative of the flawed nature of the MBPT. It's interesting and can be helpful at times, but humans a way too complex.
#1 - Does not apply to all INTPs. I enjoy the isolation.
#2 - 100% agree
#3 - Agree but I am always aware of my surroundings including people. I just don't care what they think most of the time.
#4 - Yes, this is true
#5 - This can be true but I don't get so frustrated
#6 - Most people are not to be trusted
#7 - Not true for me. Most people mistake me for an INFP until I explain how dumb they sound.
#8 - Although it is true most can't keep up, I'll explain myself in a way only intelligent people will understand. So if you misunderstand me, well...
Thank you for sharing this!
I strongly suspect you are dishonest, most people don't even know what IN.. anything means and blowing up your own whistle how others can't understand you...that isn't going to give you credibility. There is a good change they have a reason why their and your conclusion wouldn't meet and perhaps just you lack the capacity to see it. also, keeping your mind open even the ideas that you can't comprehend is a good idea, because you never know
this is the most relatable video I’ve seen so far
Searching an INTP who shares the same worldview as me. So if you are an INTP, can we be friends online? your social media pls?
I am tired of this life. I desperately need to talk to someone who thinks like me.
This vid was damn accurate

You missed on most naive. I'm with an ISFP that thanks to her Ne trickster is clueless to others' motives. It was one of her best features as I kept matching on apps with INFPs that used their Ne to see motives that weren't there in me and lacking Ne I was able to be accepted at face value for a change which was refreshing.
Thank you so much for this insight!
That's interesting. That would explain my cynicism.
@@TaxingIsThieving Check if you hate those things ---> ruclips.net/video/91LTF1vJkSU/видео.html
Not me being diagnosed with ADHD and doing the personality test and seeing the parallels. 🤯
Thanks for sharing!
THIS IS SO FREAKING ACCURATE
INTP’s there is a way to achieve a goal. First find what you’re trying to do. Just pick one goal.
Find what steps need to be done to achieve the goal. Next find what time of the day motivation is the highest and for how long. Next schedule time everyday at the time to work on the project and just do it. Also things like decluttering and cleaning has to be scheduled otherwise entropy will just build up in my living space. I found for me I have to own very little and from time to time sell things or donate them because my energy is very low for organizing and caring for objects.
False. I prefer being alone and i don't feel lonely nor isolated.
Now it not in so much that we do not WANT to let people in as being so much in our heads and being oblivious our surrounds. We are also aware that hardly no one is interested in the things we are interested in.
I can relate to all of these but I am still not convinced if I am really INTP. I guess I'm struggling.
This video can be helpful ---> ruclips.net/video/2KFCGpYE-Zg/видео.html
When I was in college, I tried to do business, and when I started earning 2000 dollars a month I lost motivation and quit completely. Then after that I tried to make RUclips and when I reached 200k followers suddenly I lost motivation again and quit completely. I hate this, but I really lose the motivation to do the things I've already done.
Before watching these videos I didn't know the MBTI personality test could be so perfect
I think one reason I have problems with people is because I can see various outcomes ahead of time. They think there is no way I can see it. To me it is common sense.
Absolutely everything you said is true, thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Yes. I finally understand my personality better but still unmotivated to live my life
Have to say waiting for eternity for people to realise they are wrong... so true it's uncanny.
I think the big ambitious yet no motivation is my biggest weakness as an INTP lol I'll try to get to get better tho
Interesting.
Well, that was super painful. And true.
As an INTP, I relate to all of these.
Great!
No motivation I just want to live in the moment and read, it's pretty useless to be an intp but your mind is an interesting place.
Thanks for sharing!
We're scatter-brained wallflowers. This video read my soul. 😂
The last one is totally wrong. How can i be affraid, if i'm completly sure that there is no chance at all for me to be understood?
Interesting question!
As an INTP-T i didn't really know that it's just my personality...i thought i had alexithymia lol..this was very helpful..i got to know myself a little better
Thanks for sharing!
i had a counsellor and they told me their head hurt trying to understand how i think 😭
I am always being rejected by people. I have wondered if it is because I am INTP. I think people should be willing to accept others that aren't exactly like them.
As an INTP, i'd like to disagree with the wording at 2:41.
"their attention span may be a stumbling block."
While yes, we may have trouble focusing on things, it isn't our attention span. It's our motivation, how much we like doing something. I, personally, have been immersed in a project for hours end because I was interested in the project and I felt highly motivated to complete it. Attention span isn't an issue, motivation is.
INTP here. I wouldn't wish it on others.
;)
I don't even know how to describe the sound I made when he talked about INTP's almost never getting the credit for having been right about a thing.
Hmm, I have traits and ended up with test results of both intj and intp, but I honestly seem to have more common traits with intp, especially after watching this video
Try this test ---> bit.ly/3LuWw4T
I can understand that, I used to be INTJ for many years, but then I started to become an INTP for the last few years.
The main reason someone transforms between them is "hopeless". Since INTJs can see the future more than others, they will lose the hop from the 2nd or 3rd attempts, they just need to compare the tests they've done with the other possibilities they didn't, so they will know the result of the other 99 attempts without doing it. And, when they face a real challenge, they will not try to go in another direction in their life, because INTJs have basics and rules in their life... And you can think about what will happen next.
To make it more clear, what will INTJ do in his/ her waiting time? Now Imagine the same thing if an INTJ waited for SOOOO long time, like months or years, without having the power or money to find a new good hobby (for example: reading, learning languages, sports,..). They will just keep thinking in their World, then, they will try to avoid the bad feelings that will come by doing anything else, then they will start to lose the motivation over time, and will get used to useless hobbies they usually hated to spend time on it... And, step by step, they will transform into INTP, and that's what happened to me.
Maybe you feel that you are both because your free time in your schedule increased, or because you start to feel hopeless with your life, mostly when people didn't understand you..... Just try to fight your laziness, and find anything to fill the gap in your time. Being INTJ is much better than being INTP. No offenses, But I hope that you get the idea.
As an INTP that struggles with being understood, does anyone else get the feeling people gaslight you all the time?
Okay!
Number 1 problem solved with internet community, like how I comment on this video while I am INTP. Not meeting the people make it easier to cominicate. You can see ALOT of INTPs commentings here and there on random videos on RUclips.
Thank you for this insight!
As n INTP i suffers alot being misunderstood by people...whenever m just trying to open up n share my opinion they misunderstand me..but people who r close to me understands me so its a bit easy for me...n thats how m not good at making new friends either..
As an former intp and newer infj i can feel the wrath of over thinking 😂😂😂
Would an INTP get that tattoo (4:04)? I have considered getting one, but can't decide on the best tattoo.
I'm INTP and this video is accurate. I'm super smart and basically right about most things way before most people...but it doesn't matter because nobody believes me or takes me seriously, accept my wife and brother who have seen me predict the future multiple times and now they trust me. But growing up I was an outcast and a weird conspiracy theorist..but now that all my wild theories have come true, my family has acknowledged that I was right for all those years. The theories I have now are taken more seriously, so that's good.
Hey, do you have some examples? I'm struggling with that too most of the time..
But there is people who indeed consider me smart and intellectual but it's came from more mature people's and more aged also by some correlation.. cause the folks my age(23) most of them are stupid, silly giggling dolls. I can have a good conversion only with 30 - 40+ years old guys on my job. But it's just being said that there is more chance to find mature human and someone to talk more deeply around those ages.
I relate a lot.
To which point in particular?

I wonder if I am an intp or it’s just my adhd
This is true myself
so true
To my fellow INTPs read the subtle art of not giving a f*ck, it explores why motivation is a waste of time. INTPs live in our heads, we have a very rich and colourful internal environment. We take for granted that everyone is as deep thinking and analytical as we are, they’re not. They are always out chasing what we are born with, an inner calm. My best friend is Mr Extrovert and is always asking me to come to his boxing club with him. He has a majorly stressful job and uses boxing to excise all that tension. He’s verging on the edge of a breakdown (his words, not mine) has ruined a ligament in his knee with all this exercise and needs a nose job that booked for 1 months time because it got broken by accident when he was boxing and now he can only breathe out one side of his nose. We earn the same money but I work for myself caring for the elderly in a medical capacity where they need an appointment to come see me. Everyday is quiet and easy, people think I’m really zen. Which pleases me. Don’t try too hard, find someone you don’t mind doing and don’t live extravagantly. The rest of the time, I live in my head, and it’s a quirky place 😊😊
Bro make me intp to entp
What do you mean by that?
I think most people have number 2 not just intps

Alright!
I disagree with number 5, stubbornness. INTP are always open to modifying their opinions according to new information. This one of their strongest points. Hence the indecision spoken of earlier because of their shifting opinions.
Interesting point!
