POIS by personality type

[kurtosis]

I'm interested because I'm wondering whether there's any correlation between our personality types, the relative dopamine versus acetyl-choline neurotransmitter dominance and POIS.  I'm an INTJ and I'm wondering if most of us fall into *NT* types.

You can do the test here http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp
if you're interested.

Should I answer as if I were in POIS or out of it? Because the answers will not be the same. My own personality test: Mr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hide.

hhmm, my personality doesn't change when in POIS. I'm just "me" but a bit frustrated. I'd suggest just doing the personality type survey, answering how you think you are most of the time and seeing what answer it produces.

before pois  i was enfp, i will take test again to see

I'm an INFP, but I think i've got some INTP attributes too, especially as I have aged

[Prancer]

It gave me a score of ISTJ. I had POIS while trying it, but my answers would be the same without POIS.

INTP

INTP

Pretty close to an INTP myself, just a bit more J than P apparently. Guess that's why I'm grumpy sometimes. I blame the parents

Anyway that's another one for the Introverted iNtuition camp. Only 5 responders so far so there's not much we can learn yet.

Certainly INTP.

They say that us INTJs are fairly rare! 4%.

Heck, we should be able to INTUIT the rest.

Apparently so.

Starsky, I have to worry about the Jeckyl/Hyde effect as well, lol. My personality defiantly varies w/ extreme POIS symptoms.  Interesting little test, I feel as thought POIS has defiantly shaped and changed my personality over the years forcing me to be more creative and accepting, while constantly searching for clarity objectivity in the world. Scored INTJ.

Another INTJ. Same as Daveman & me. Welcome to the "club"

if i discount pois i am ENFP. tested twice with couple of years apart.

[poisioq]

i took an on line test yesterday night: INTP

[kurtosis]

Very small sample so far but it's interesting that we're 60% NT's (which are rare personality types in the overall population) and 90% IN's. If we had more responses, we could say that there's a tendency for POIS sufferers who identify themselves as such to be IN's or intuitive introverts. Interesting.
