wasnt totally sure on some of the questions, since how I think I am and how others see I am are different

Also I think one way but usually end up doing the opposite

Yeah, that was something people have found weird about me, how I think one way that's drastically different than how I act in person. I find the serotonin thin weird, too, because it's not like I'm good at planning things, I just dwell on the future a lot and all the different ways things can play out, which leads to a lot of indecision up until the last minute, which drives my nuts

That's the problem with these sorts of tests, a lot of times the answers don't really mean much because it varies depending on how you interpret it.

You clearly know that there is something wrong with the test if it says that Verb is kind and empathetic

the trick when it comes to these quizzes is to understand the question behind the question—like, if there's one that says something like, "i've always been into things like basketball and baseball," and you put "strongly disagree" because you're only interested in football and soccer, you're kinda missing the point—because what it's really trying to ask you is if you enjoy games that involve working with teams and physical activity

there's another proposition that has to do with whether you follow routines, so for that one, i sort of had to think of myself in a different/more idealized state of mind—because while i don't happen to follow any routines right now, it's only because i'm depressed as fuck, and don't really have my life in order; so i could put "strongly disagree," but that wouldn't be 100% accurate because the fact that i don't follow routines is very distressing to me—i wish and strive to have a plan that i can consistently follow every day to sort of dig myself out of the emotional hole that i've dug myself into over the past four years—so from that angle, i can put "strongly agree" in order to reflect an ideal

the only proposition that stumped me for a while was the one that had to do with having a wide variety of interests

my gut feeling to that one is "yes," just because i can definitely give you a laundry list of things that i'm interested in—music, movies, writing, video games, etc—but all of these things can be boiled down to just "art"

do i really have a wide range of interests if the only thing i'm interested in is art? and like, philosophy
