I, INTP 7

Part 7

Great INTP advice from this page

How to cope:
Just accept yourself for who you are. You’re “weird”?; then cool, you’re weird. You’re aloof? So what, you’re aloof. You cannot connect to people emotionally? So be it.
There’s nothing wrong with you are. You are you.
There’s something said in the Talmud I believe, in which someone was asking God about who he is…his essence, etc. The creator’s answer:
I AM WHAT I AM
so let go of any feelings of inadequacy or alienation–you’re a freak or disconnected or whatever–GOOD FOR YOU! Embrace who you are and good will come from it.
I discovered this through dancing my brains out at hippy festivals while on hippy drugs–not everybody needs to go on my path but we all would do well with a little self realization and acceptance however it comes about.
To be an INTP:
•    is to be interested in everything and nothing simultaneously
•    is to be good at everything but not great at anything–constantly the person in second place.
•    is to not want to lead but in the same light, do exactly what you want.
•    is to feel more intelligent than most people around you (for this reason, associate with smartypants and the world will seem saner)
•    is to be unable to express simple things like, “what I want is…”;
•    is to be what I call, “an antisocial socialite.”
[…]
for me, it really is that I do see all sides of everything and therefore cannot decide (and deciding is a stressful thing for me to do)…
•    it is to like everything and dislike everything at the same time, equally.
