Help me Cognitive Types, you're my only hope!

hey, urraco! Feel welcome to the forum! Oh, it seems it has been a long journey seeking your type... when I arrived in the forum I was feeling exactly in the same inner state of "I've been trying forever to figure out my type and haven't had a lot of luck so far. I've tried just about everything you can. OMGOMG. /o\ ". So, I am sympathize a lot.

So, I'm happy to have a great amount of certainty in saying that you're definitely a Ti-lead. All signals are present: eyes disengage down and body freezes when you're in Ji-mode (and it's for the most part of the video he he), you have that Ti light swell in the voice, a very warming articulation (totally opposed to the blunt monotone Te articulation), meticulous speech, neutralized cheeks, puppeteer hands.

Ti-lead is for sure in my accessment (and TiNe seems more likely than TiSe - see paragraph below ).

I'm not fuuuully sure of which P functions pair you use yet, so by now we can restrain our excitement in having narrowed 16 types down to 2. Your Pi signals are espcially faint and not very there, which coincides with Pe>Pi... but it makes the job less easy in determining if you use Ni or Ne because as you disengage down a lot (high Ji-processing), I can't see very well if your eyes are dancing (Ne) or if they have a more fixed penetrating quality (Se). But I don't know why... there's something in your demeanour that makes me think that chances are high of you being alpha (your way of expressing yourself is much more similar to TiNes I've seen so far than TiSes), but I can't rule out beta as a possibility by now.

If you find time to record (with a friend or relative or any other person around you) an interaction video (it can be a casual interview or a free conversation on a topic that you like), that would provide more data to make it easier to land on what P functions you use.

After rewatching your video... Why TiNe and not TiSe: your eyes sweep objects without landing on anything (dancing eyes) and at 4:07/4:08 = blatant Si scowl 

TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe TiNe 

Yay! This night you'll maybe rest in a different way, with a Cognitive Type to call yours.  *ct vr changing lives since 2012*


TiNe


No moar footage required.

I know this has nothing to do with typology, but is your background moving, or am I just tripping on something?

Also, you seem to have a bluish aura. 

Thank you all so much for your analysis. I watched the video with all that in mind and had no doubt you guys were right. I do feel so much more at peace now. Go figure after all that time my function configuration was the very first one I ever got.

I had wondered why I could be so sensitive to criticism, so interested in social sciences, and still be an INTP. But then I realized that functions themselves don't have nearly as much to do with it as I thought. Most tests give me INFJ, but they don't test functions! Stereotypically yes, I prefer meaning and compassion over cold logical rigor, and I want my environment clean and orderly and my decisions made early. But functionally, TiNe makes so much more sense.

Also, the background was moving because I'm sitting in a rocking chair. As for auras...who knows? I wonder what blue and tan even mean? I'm not saying I believe in them (could just be lighting or retinal burn), but it's still neat.

Phew. I will indeed rest much easier tonight.
