How is a human supposed to function in this configuration?

Anyone with such high neuroticism even remotely functional in society?

Why are you neurotic?

I couldn't tell you. I've never been a very happy camper. Even since I was a child.

>openness almost just as high

There's your issue. You must use a LOT of social media, am I correct?

Interesting quiz! I guess I suck but I think I didn't really think through the quiz.

Identify why and work on that. You can change if you're willing to pay the price in will and emotional pain.

That's baby mode, check this shit out.

Pretty sure it started with my boomer parents having no clue how to raise a neurotic, introverted child beyond 'force him to play sports and make friends until he likes it'. By the time I was an adolencent I already didn't have any firm grounding for socialization or really anything to apply my consciousness towards. Things sort of compounded from there. And here we are 28 years later and I can't finish a single task I set out to start, and am generally miserable and reclusive.

Don't blame your parents. It might be their fault, but that's a dead end that takes you to nowhere useful. Even if they do apologize, it won't undo years of damage. Did you do well at sports? What did you think of them? What happens when you try to make friends?

I don't blame them but it is most certainly where my troubles start. I was extremely bad at sports. Embarrassingly bad in fact. The one summer I didn't want to play baseball my dad yelled and made a scene about it, so I never protested about it again. Things I suggested I might be interested in were dismissed. I liked fencing even though I wasn't very good at it. But my parents stopping paying for stuff for me around that time.

I get along with people fine but I lack that 'spark' to move things into the realm of friendship.

OP you really just need to start with what you actually want in life.

After that you need to accept that you are a regular person that deserves to be happy. Happiness isn't just for other people.

I'm following this advice right now and I don't know if it helps in the long run. I hope it will.

I don't want for anything. I've thought about this quite a lot. And I've reached the conclusion that imaging a happy and worthwhile future is an ability, one I no longer possess.

What do you think about your dad yelling at you? What was he angry about? Why did your parents stop paying for things? How old were you?

>What do you think about your dad yelling at you?

I didn't like it. I have more memories of him losing his temper than tender ones of him.

>What was he angry about?

That I didn't want to play sports anymore.

>Why did your parents stop paying for things? How old were you?

I couldn't say. I was around 13 or 14.

Attached: 1462425675592.jpg (600x763, 75K)

Did he lose his temper frequently at you or in general? How do you suppose it made him feel that you didn't want to play sports anymore? What did you do after they stopped paying for things? Did you ever try to suggest things that you might like?

>I get along with people fine but I lack that 'spark' to move things into the realm of friendship

I think it's the same for me. What're some signs that make it obvious?

>Did he lose his temper frequently at you or in general?

At me. Infrequent outburst of really loud angry yelling. No more than a few times a year but as a kid it really scared me.

>How do you suppose it made him feel that you didn't want to play sports anymore?

Probably really bad. He was a typical boomer dad who liked sports and stuff and wanted me to be the all American son but even as a child I was super introverted and neurotic as I am now.

>What did you do after they stopped paying for things?

I didn't do much of anything. Watched a lot of movies (on VHS) I watch a lot of movies today.

>Did you ever try to suggest things that you might like?

Yes. None of my suggestions were ever seriously considered.

In the broad strokes, a verbatim situation:

>At a regular function.
>Meet people.
>Get along with everyone well enough.
>New person shows up
>After a few weeks they get invited to stuff outside of regular function
>I do not

This has happened once or twice. The people in question people invite out and flock to are super more agreeable and more sunny than more though.

I don't mean to sound like a cliche, but what do you think your father thought when you told him you didn't want to play?
In what way were you neurotic as a child?
Which suggestions did you have? What did they say when you suggested them?

>I don't mean to sound like a cliche, but what do you think your father thought when you told him you didn't want to play?

He probably just wanted me active and thought if I 'stuck with it long enough' I'd eventually see the light and get better at sports, get better with other kids. Mind you this big outburst was after 3~ years of hating and being terrible at baseball.

>In what way were you neurotic as a child?

I vividly remember when I was about 4 or 6 I realized the other kids deliberately banded together at my expense so I'd always be 'it' playing tag or lose at games we played. The thought really bummed me out. I can come up with a dozen little murders like that from my early childhood that sort of left me depressed.

>Which suggestions did you have? What did they say when you suggested them?

Computer stuff (this was 98 mind you), piano, fencing was also my suggestion. Upon retrospect I was pretty coldly dismissed. My suggests were usually dismissed with a 'you dont know what you want' or 'heh well see.'

Sorry for leaving, we ate dinner here.
Maybe he did want you active, but does that justify yelling at you? What can you come up with from your childhood that made you depressed? Think of some specific instances and why you felt depressed about them. Why do you think your suggestions were so coldly dismissed?

>Maybe he did want you active, but does that justify yelling at you?

No.

>What can you come up with from your childhood that made you depressed? Think of some specific instances and why you felt depressed about them.

I can come up with quite a bit and think about them often.

>Why do you think your suggestions were so coldly dismissed?

Because my boomer parents mistakenly thought playing sports was a better fit for me than a more cerebral hobby like I suggested.

>No.
You have it right there.
Try to think about the things from your childhood. Don't think about the pain, but of what feelings cause the pain. What do you feel when you think about them?
Why do you think your parents didn't take your suggestions into account when making their decision?

>What do you feel when you think about them?

Disappointment in my parents and regret I didn't make a bigger scene when I was young to do what I wanted.

>Why do you think your parents didn't take your suggestions into account when making their decision?

Ignorance.

Dont blame your parents. The bggest single influence on your life and personality is your genes. Blame them.

You may do what you like now. The only person that holds you back is you. Why don't you make some small changes now and go to bigger ones later? People can change, it just exacts a very high price in will and emotional pain. You have to relearn automatic responses picked up decades earlier. It's very hard, but it can be done.

im the same as you, only worse

you will eat because your stomach aches, not because the food is good

you will find a woman because you will feel inadequate as a man if you dont, not because you love women

I did one of these tests before, the real one. I scored highest in neuroticism and low on basically everything else. I don't know how to fix it.

You think you're bad off? I've got no friends, am a virgin, and literally waste all my free time worrying about things from years ago or weird scenarios that will never fucking happen but I don't have enough life experience to know they're bullshit because I spend all my time indoors. My brain is completely fucking fucked.

Look it up you useless faggot. This is just a thread to farm patients. The site it's on specifically tells you they're going to use your data for studies they are conducting.

>high neuroticism
>high openness
>low conscientiousness
>low agreeableness

We're you ever diagnosed as ADHD, or something similar such as BPD?

Also, if can please answer, do you find it fairly easy to make relationships, but hard to maintain those relationships?

>ADHD

Yes, but it was a super soft diagnosis.

>Make relationships

I can make acquaintance very easily. Not relationships.

The title is misleading as it's not entirely about ADHD, but conditions under which people may appear to have ADHD. It talks about how to work around those conditions, so it may be of use to you.

These tests are still the same, consider emotional stability to be neuroticism but inverted, and intellect/imagination to be openness.
