I'm an INTP and I struggled with depression for a few years. I came out of it with one certainty: stagnation is death. It can certainly be difficult to make the necessary changes but it's also certainly possible.

This is where I struggle trying to build a business - I noticed that I wasn’t even trying. Also, I find myself in an endless loop of indecision. It’s starting to feel like torture. My solution is to ask for help - which I don’t automatically do - I think I can benefit from someone to help me organize my ideas/thoughts

Exercise especially early in the day helps a lot. I have to force myself but never regretted and it totally jump starts my motivation. Which is an INTP I need a lot of help with

[@intpsurvivalguide2473]

So true. I have fallen off lately with exercising. But when I do I feel so great afterwards

[@whoami2654]

Im INTP, i figured out that i have to keep on trying to be socially active such as going out in the streets, having small talks with random strangers, initiating small/casual/shallow talk, reading other's persons body language, facial expressions, emotional state ,voice tone, current situations all of that combined i can determine the approch and communicate well, self-confidence is the key, i have to let go of all and ignore my insecurities, after trying multiple times and i have to make fool of myself and get into conflicts multiple times i'll learn to socialize. I have to leave my comfort zone embrace suffering that leads to my growth. There are are lot of resources in internet such as Bard, BingAI, chatGPT whom i can ask for advise like a human. P.S- INTP's inner monologue should be like that.

[@whoami2654]

when INTP's learn to understand their own personal emotions we will live a life much better.

[@whoami2654]

INTP's own self-critisism, self-doubt is the their enemy in life. When we find passion and vision in life out life all comes together. I personally is passionate about Data Science. P.S- ask yourself no one is criticizing you then why are you criticizing, doubting, sabotaging yourself? You are perfect the way you are, your mind just clouded. People are flawed even the greatest ones.

[@tahaehtesham6245]

What i noticed about myself is that i always want perfection from myself and others. I hate the idea of doing something just "acceptable" Lost a lot of years, because i hate the thoughts of failures. Right now im seeing the light. Learning about a lot of stuff everyday.

[@dragonofdeath1]

I'm not sure if this is an INTP thing or just a me thing, but I have noticed a tendency towards meaninglessness which, in my opinion, increases apathy as well, perhaps more so than the things you mention in this video, but I'm not sure. Anyways, This tendency towards meaninglessness creates apathy because you realize how pointless your actions really are. Using myself as an example, The reason why I saw everything as meaninglessness at the time, (not anymore) was because I realized how impermanent we really are. Most people's work has by this point, been long forgotten and there has been very few cases in which this is not true, perhaps because of the work in question, or perhaps because of our short memory spans, I'm not sure. We are impermanent, we will all die some day. I don't mean to be bleak but it is true, we will all die, and one day, our memory will be forgotten by others. But, I've come to realize that that really doesn't matter to me and that all that really matters is that my ideas are out there somewhere where someone can find them if they dare to look. The other element to this, according to myself is the seeming parasitic nature of life. I've had this thought which I've told to no one before now that suggests that life is bassically like a parasite and the Earth is a host. Why? Because resources, whether they be food, water, etc, are limited. Because they are limited, we take away by existing, thus, life is a basic parasite and Earth is a host. Think of it this way, let's say that on an island, there are 100 fruit trees that produce aprox 500 fruits each year. This is just an estimate and is not a representative of what fruit trees would actually produce. But if there are more people and animals than the plant can sustain, something has to give, someone, or something has to die. Dark but true. And, assuming that this is true, we must have to make the same assumption about the plant as well. There must be something to sustain the tree, good soil, proper access to the sun, etc. And so if there is not enough of these things, the plants die, or don't grow as well.. Etc Etc. Thmypoint being, that if we grant these things to be true, we, as a general rule are suffocating the ecosystems that we are in. But because of this, we will either kill it, or be killed ourselves in the future. I'm not really sure what the solution is, or if those views are even correct, but it seems likely. But given this knowledge, this is probably so many are apathetic, especially INTPS because somewhere I've read that INTPS are prone to nihilism more than other types. I'm not sure if this is true but if it is, this would probably cause as much, if not more apathy than what You think causes apathy, but, of course, I could be wrong. Thanks for making these videos all the same And I hope you and anyone else who bothers to read this far has a good one, lol.

[@Primatenate88]

My theory is that humankind was created to work for the OG Gods. If this is true, and the Gods have supposedly left us to our own devices, then the primary objective of life is self mastery and the primal evil is an attempt to play God and rule over fellow humans. Sure, humans have some parasitic tendencies but now that we're at the top of the food chain, we have nobody left to fight but ourselves. If life is a test, its to see how far we will go to obtain power and use it to manipulate and feed off our fellow man. Or its to play the working victim and see how long it takes before the common man has had enough and revolts despite fears, taboos, the need for social acceptance etc. Life's a big chore, best find our own paths to enlightenment/salvation.

[@env0x]

well, nobody knows who carl jung is these days and the first name people think about when they think psychology is freud. even tho jung is the founder of analytical psychology. same could be said about nikola tesla and thomas edison. it is especially true for INTPs that we are doomed to a life of obscurity, being dismissed and forgotten about. we're just not loud enough, and not "in your face" enough for people to take notice. it's just something we have to live with. thats why we gotta live for ourselves and not for other people or for recognition.

[@kristykat8622]

I'm an INFP-T or 4w 5 if you prefer. In my 40's and I find myself leaning towards apathy more so because most just don't get WTF I'm talking about. Why do I care anyway? Those that care try, and I appreciate that. I just can't seem to stop analyzing EVERYTHING! In many ways it's better than in my 20's when I would lay down at night and it was a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions with no form or how to fix or change anything. My biggest issue is that most people can't have a deep thoughtful conversation. If they can, work or other obligations choke it out and I hate that. I value the INTP because they seem to be me only inverted in a way. The emotions are so real and intense yet so managed by the Ti so sent through a logic filter so from the outside can seem either super surface level and intense or almost non existent. I love the way the logic in them tells me I'm mistaken... 😂 Yeah, I get that even if in hindsight I appreciate it. We balance each other because my emotions are internal but I've been dealing with them for as long as I can remember. I actually hate talking about my feelings and would rather talk about what I know. This gives me great comfort with an INTP...they love to talk about what they know more than I do so I give... LOL We find common interests and I love that or they expand my knowledge which I can build on what I already know.

I have always wondered.....if all these negative thoughts, experiences, trauma etc...are the reason for us being INTP. Hadn't we had all these experiences in the past/ childhood, would we be in a different category of MBTI?

[@akazicool87]

I've personally thought the same.

[@intpsurvivalguide2473]

That is the great debate if your MBTI is determined at birth or from early year experiences. I think it may be a little of both. Someone with highly extraverted parents may have a higher chance of being extraverted. I'm honestly not sure

[@maaikevermoen1727]

@rammpeth Culture I second this opinion , even in my family .. dad's an ESFJ and mum's ENFP I turned out to be a Contemplative INTP

[@stonecrier6891]

@@intpsurvivalguide2473 Honestly, as much as people try to hang onto the freeing feeling that we are blank slates, I think ultimately 85% (or some very high %) of who we are is determined by genetics. I think it’s hard to add things to a child to make them different other than the specific content that they are filled with. But the manner in which it is processed and the aptitude and limit is pre-determined. Trauma is the one exception. Because through trauma, you can drastically harm and change the outcome of a child. But the difference between “good” and “excellent” upbringings is a rounding error. With that said, I think the timing and degree of maturity of the various cognitive functions can be greatly enhanced with a excellent upbringing. That is to say, an INTP can be exposed to a lot of situations that help/allow/force them to develop Se or Fe to much higher degrees and much earlier. You may find very immature middle aged INTPs contrasted by very young well adjusted and mature INTPs. But I think they’d still be an INTP, just somewhere else in the developmental spectrum. So I say genetics determines to *what* we are and nurture determines how quickly and how deeply we traverse the development axes. Just my own observations and musings.

None of it is our fault, and none of it does mean anything. We can still find a way forward, but it's harder. "Success" the way you speak of it comes from money luck and greed, like the traditional iphone. Apple is not a person. Real success is beyond that.

… with regard to around 7:30 there seem to be a couple of inconsistencies, imho. the most widely occurring cause for problems in INTP personality people seems to be the mis-matches while embedding | interfacing communicatively with social context. that this will change in principle (other than just temporarily locally) seems highly doubtable, even if one doesn‘t see themself as unchanging agent… which of course is a ridiculously flat assumption. all others are operating | observing all the time, too, but the mis-fits | mis-matches keep emerging in course of these operationalities based on respective cogno-psycho-socio predispostions that are conditioning, and being conditioned | influenced by, them over time. Even if all these actors won‘t stay the same, their compatibilities seem unlikely to improve fundamentally. And it‘s not apathy to recognise this, but fade-out of hope in view of an own span of control just to include self-mastery | unfolding (if succeeding here…) - but certainly not into autopoiesis of other cognitive | social systems, that would have to be played alike. Indeed, the idea that checking out of everything maybe as viable options as others, may thus become luring (if not ruled out in view of its other flaws)… especially if one doesn’t appreciate sedative means for their utter deficiencies | dysfunction.

Ten and a half minutes in, there is just so much wrong with this that it would not be reasonable to take the time to refute it all. I few pointed notes though. 1) Survivorship bias. For everything that has succeeded, there are a thousand things (probably more) that have failed. When the iphone came out, I had two thoughts: Why is this a decade later than it should be? And I'm not buying that from Apple. 2) There is a thing called an exponential curve, and by many measures, including rate of technological change, we are past the turning point, which means if you are not on top of something already, you never will be, and if you are on top of something, you probably won't be pretty soon. This is an unprecedented rate of change that humans individually and collectively, are not built to handle. 3) The problem with the notion that we can quickly become experts, is that no one cares what you can actually do, they care what you are credentialed for, and you can only reasonably become credentialed with a tiny handful of things. So if you're not already credentialed, it really doesn't matter what else you learn.

[@intpsurvivalguide2473]

Of course things fail but someone will eventually win the race. If you don't ever try you FOR SURE will never create the successful product like the iPhone. The iPhone was an extreme example of the most successful in the world. Surely more successes can be had without being at the very top That is some pretty negative thinking there. Even though I admit you are correct about this "exponential curve," someone is still going to come out on top. Wealth and success are not zero sum games. There is more opportunity to make success in an unconventional way now more than ever. You really believe INTPs cannot keep up with "the times" No one cares? How many KZbinrs have degrees in what they discuss? Doctor videos maybe. And it doesn't matter what else you learn? You don't learn to please other people, you learn for your own knowledge so you know what ACTIONS to take. You base your entire argument on how other people are feeling. Your Fe inferior is showing there. And not in a good way

[@Pengalen]

@@intpsurvivalguide2473 MMM, no. KZbin, believe it or not, is a very niche "job" that not everyone can do, or wants to do. Even most youtubers don't do youtube very well (from a metric point of view, e.g. making an income). Most real life jobby jobs are pretty much dependent on what the people hiring you think you can do. This is not an Fe thing. This is, I can't do that thing if those people won't hire me to do it. They won't hire me to do it unless I am credentialed, or I have previous, and often very recent experience, which of course you often need to be credentialed to have. And in this case, I'm talking about fairly mid to low level jobs, not even approaching anything I'd actually want to do. There is also of course the problem of deciding on a course and sticking with it well enough to do anything on one's own (to the extent that such things can be done). Without roads or signposts on how to get somewhere with something, they all seem equally futile, and the only motivation is ever changing momentary interest. The thinking is negative because nothing I've ever done has ever accomplished anything, and the possibilities to do anything that I would consider "successful" are vanishingly small to non-existent. Several of the things I want are simply no longer possible, and I'm really just struggling for survival, as I have been doing all my life.

[@Pengalen]

@Desiree Noelle Hi. I'm on the old side of things. I've heard all the advice before. Frankly most of it doesn't really take reality into account, and operates on a very narrow idealized Pollyanna perspective, most of which relies on survivorship bias (e.g. I did this thing and was successful, so it must be because I did this thing, ignoring the fact that most people who did this thing were not successful.) and underestimating the degree to which other people's decisions affect the outcome of your life, regardless of how much you do or do not care about how they feel about you.
