Does knowing that you “fit in” a personality type actually makes you feel better?

I’ve been thinking about how science can actually explain a certain predictable form of being. In fact, look at you now, taking part on a social media which allows people to access much more than you could ever imagine yourself telling someone you know in person.
An index, a catalog, an acronym, reveling (as per say) who you… are?

Can you remember when you’ve taken any remarkable personality test? How you’ve felt about the result, or how you’ve taken it into consideration. Knowing yourself is seen as an advantage, even more when you manage to love yourself the way you are, what would you say about it?

Relatable, yeah.
You guys have recognized who you are, is that supposed to be the ultimate factor about knowing yourself? I mean, that was supposed to make life simpler, still, not to its boring aspect.
Does your life seem different to you? Now?

 

Looking back, I was a really lost child but that time I decided to take the "Divergent aptitute test" and guess what? Took the test to feel less lonely but actually managed to reafirm how lonely I was since none of those characters were real and I was a Divergent lol
Well, you got a point there, it's definitely better to be crazy knowing that I can connect with other unusual craziness like mine

 

I guess that's why introversts struggle so much trying to find themselves, since there's this inherent need to feel understood.
It's like you've gotta walk through a meaningless path, therefore you are in charge of motivations to keep on walking... but predictably, one doesn't get their answers if they aren't able to share their doubts, so you won't feel fulfilled knowing that people out there have so much to show you.

 

For me it's still kinda utopic, you know? hahaha I could never actually meet someone on my terms of intensity, meaning that I've never had the chance of meeting others who were willing to talk deeply about such matters.
I see this place as a personification of this possibility, it's quite stimulating actually letting some thoughts out hahaha

 

That's a thing, indeed. After all, what comfort would it bring to know that you're part of group in which no one actually stimulates your true self...
I guess that's why I've felt so wrong for a really long time, but knowing how big the world is and how unique can't be unique at all, not completely, made me end up here

 

Probably the best thing I'll read today
