A question about MBTI personality types and personal sensitivity to Psychedelics
#7949343 - 01/29/08 07:21 AM (16 years, 3 days ago) |

Please do THIS TEST to find out your MBTI personality type. Its free, its fun and by websearching your type you can learn a lot about yourself.
If you know your personality type, and have used major psychedelics like shrooms, mescaline and LSD, please answer ONE of these three questions, to score whether you are of low, medium or high sensitivity to psychedelics.
Someone of high sensitivity would typically use lower doses, and of low sensitivity higher doses than the average person. To pinpoint it, we know that the average person typically uses a dose of 2-3 grams of cubensis mushrooms.
Only fill in your type in the one question that defines your individual sensitivity!

I am an INFP based on numerous tests, and I couldn't say what my sensitivity is so I put average...probably closer to high than low.
-------------------- “Strengthened by contemplation and study, I will not fear my passions like a coward. My body I will give to pleasures, to diversions that I’ve dreamed of, to the most daring erotic desires, to the lustful impulses of my blood, without any fear at all, for whenever I will— and I will have the will, strengthened as I’ll be with contemplation and study— at the crucial moments I’ll recover my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

Wiccan, I have a hard time doing that personality test. My answers are different at different times. I don't know which responses to choose. They both seem right.
I can't answer a yes/no question and believe that it sums up my personality type. Especially when both answers could be right at different moments. I wish I could take the test, because I'm curious, but everytime I try, I'm at a loss, because I'm not sure which response to give.
Oh: but I do seem to enjoy high intensity experiences with higher doses.

Moderately high INFJ. I can't feel much off of 1-1.5g, but as the dose increases, so does my sensitivity. 2g is my comfort zone. 2.5g is my full-blown trip. 3.5g is my highest dose, and I save that for a solo trip when I'm ready to accept oblivion. I get major ego-loss on 3g and very severe time dilation. I don't believe my consciousness could handle anything over 4g. I would likely pass out and have no memory of the experience.

i have a high intensity and i'm an INTJ. I just heard about these MBTI tests from the census thread, but it defines me so well! I was quite amazed.
I trip balls off 1.75g, trip well off a gram, great body highs off .5g

i can go really far out with psychedelics but low doses seem to make my mind race the fastest. it's strange, but if say i dose one hit of some quality blotter my mind would be fucking zooming and i'm more likely to flip out and feel uncomfortable. my negative psychedelic experiences were all on really low doses of mushrooms or lsd.
when i take a bit more, the whole 'tripping balls,' mentality takes over. i'm more apt to look at something and think blankly or giggle at the newfound texture. it's really weird, i'd think i was the exact opposite of most people. there's been a few times where i shot for therapeutic uses on shrooms and high doses just don't really get me thinking unless i totally break through. on lower doses my mind thinks quickly and it's easier to focus on one single thing and ponder it.
my type is INTJ and i voted for high sensitivity.

ENFP With a low to average sensitivity of psychedelics. Hope this helps. What are you doing this for, anyway? Just to do it, or is there a deeper purpose.

I have a friend that follows a similar pattern. I've tripped with him many times. The higher the dose, the more comfortable he seems to be with his mindset. Very strange.

That's pretty much how I have always been. I freak my shit on small doses and have the most crystal clear experiences on higher doses. I never understood that.

As with every other time I've done one of these tests I'm INFJ, which is pretty much spot on.
I feel I've an average sensitivity to psychedelics.

It would be really interesting if certain MBTI traits were strongly associated with high or low sensitivity. As far as I know, this question has never been asked before. I could imagine some personality types might give a certain predisposition to certain trip effects.

It's interesting to me that INFJ is said to be the rarest personality type, an estimated 2% of the population, and a good portion of shroomery members seem to be that type.

You're going to need a lot more people to vote before you get something worth drawing conclusions from. I'd say 100 responses minumum.

INFJ thrive on social networks, and the Shroomery is a pretty elaborate social network.
What makes me wonder is why would an INFJ have an avatar like yours

lol same with INTJ, we're supposed to be ~1% of the population but a few of us are here on the shroomery & already voted in this thread, it's strange. i've been a pretty high INTJ for a quick minute tho, i've scored it on pretty much every personality test i've had.

Just don't think about the question so much. I just sort of feel my way through them. The test is designed to navigate any 2nd guesses you may have regarding your personality.

I pretty much felt the same way you did before taking it. I feel like I have multiple facets to my personality, and logically sorting out an erratic, ever-changing mind doesn't seem likely. But low and behold, I fell right into the description. I guess our self-analyzation and self-renewal just fits our introspective, intuitive nature. 
It's a remarkable test.

INTJ
And I'm more sensitive than most, I think. 3g completely kicks my ass. A lot of people talk about 3.5g being an average dose... it's very high for me.

Out of the MANY, many times I have taken this test, 95% come up as INFJ, and the other 5% being when I was feeling down I come up as INFP. A strange thing if you ask me, given that the description of an INFP is one who has a strong sense of idealism and one who searches for unity of the body/mind. Perhaps in those times when I'm feeling down, I try to make the best of what I'm feeling, and return to my normal "whole" self.
I also voted as a low on psychedelics because I'm not really sure what average is. 3.5g is my normal dosage, and I have very minor visual impairment and the only major noticeable difference (aside from pupils) is a very different thought process. It brings the thoughts about myself much more to the front of my mind, and thoughts of others much more to the back, I suppose it inverts my sober self a bit. At ~4g I begin to lose my sense of self, and all sorts of unknowns can begin to happen. Most recently I thought I was drowning when thinking about a friend in Alaska who was in the fishing enterprise. Physical reactions followed accordingly with the thoughts in my head. Taste of salt water, ice cold shivering, coughing up the foulest snot/saliva mixture that my body could produce, and extreme fatigue from fighting to survive.

ENFJ personality type and average sensitivity. Trip nicely off 3 grams or 1 or 2 hits depending on potency. Find the test to be quite informational and interesting but was also a little difficult because of the strictly yes or no but I believed I stayed most true and I would agree with the results. Good Luck with your research Wilccan. I always like your posts...interesting, informative, and up to something. Peace!

MOTH said: Hey guys! I just took the test intuitively, like someone recommended, and it said I am:
INFP
I read the description and wow, it's pretty accurate.
You, me, and MushroomTrip are the only INFPs I know on the Net or IRL.
Time for some gang warfare.
Thought I'd resurrect an older thread, as I've just learned about this whole MBTI stuff. And, as I've discovered, I've joined the ranks of the INFPs! My thoughts and feelings line up with the description for INFPs nearly perfectly, although my score on the test was only 3 points away from being an ENFP, but I think thats just because I strive to be more outgoing than I really am.
In any case! Here is my take on psychedelics. I consider my sensitivity to the hallucinogenic aspects of mushrooms/LSD to be relatively low. I do see hallucinations, but it takes a significant amount of substance for me to get there, and they usually aren't as intense as I've heard many friends describe.
The mental aspect, however, i would say i have a VERY high sensitivity. When I'm tripping i'll often space out with my own thoughts, close my eyes for long periods of time without even realizing, and have trouble communicating because my mind is racing so fast. It also doesn't take very much for me to get this way. About 1 gram of shrooms will do it.
This pretty much falls in line with what I expect out of a trip anyway. I don't trip for the jollies of it, and I don't really trip to hallucinate (although it is pretty damn cool). I trip to expand my mind and my consciousness, and to discover more about myself.
On a different note....any of you INFP's ever tried an out-of-body psychedelic, such as DMT or salvia? I'd be interested to know what you experienced. Other people can contribute as well, its all good.

Edit: Oh yeah, also. Moth I can understand how you had such trouble answering questions on test like this. I felt pretty much the same way. I think its an INFP thing....we're too open-minded, and don't like to be boxed in by simple 2 response questions. The best way for us to complete these tests, i think, is just to set aside that feeling and listen to our gut instincts. Which is what we do best!

It looks like introverts like psychedellics more than extroverts. That surprises me. Or maybe just introverts com onto message boards to talk about it as where extroverts are constantly surrounded by people.

I think its more the case of introverts find it easier to express themselves in writing, so the online community is the best place for them to share their ideas. Plenty of extroverts around here too though, as they like interacting with people no matter what the median.

ESFP here!!! hooray for me 'cause there ain't to many of us on here. I too had a REAL hard time with the cut and dry, yes and no Q&A. This was the first time taking a personality test. As far as my sensitivity to drugs, thats also kinda difficult for me answer. I have an extremely low sensitivity to LSD. I have eatin' 40-50 hits at once many, many times and have never had more than a level 3 trip. I would say that I am pretty average with shroom's. 3 grams and i am GREAT! I have had a level 5 trip on 1 one ounce shroom. On the other hand just a little MDMA and I am W A Y out there. DMT knocks me on my ass too. I can smoke weed till everyone else is done. ( I know thats not really a hallucinogenic, just had to through that in there.)

I'm an INFJ. my sensitivity depends on the drug really. my ideal shroom dose is 2.5g, but i've taken 10+ hits multiple times (23 once) and had a great time.

moderately expressed introvert
slightly expressed sensing personality
distinctively expressed thinking personality
slightly expressed judging personality
and for some reason someone thinks I have a HIGH SENSITIVITY to psychedelics, that's probably why I like them so much!

I'd be interested to know what everyone's purpose is when ingesting psych's. Do you guys do it for personal discovery? For the hallucinogenic experience? A combination of both? .....or maybe just because you can, and you think its fun?

personal discovery,its fun, smaller doses help me feel more comfortable in social situations. hallucinations are good too but i normalcy don't take a dose big enough for that to happen.

ENFJ (but just barely J)
It seems like there are a lot of iNtuitive people who are into psychedelics, no? I'm sure anyone can enjoy them tho... can you think of anyone who definitely should not try psychedelics?

Hmm...here's a thought. Do you think its possible that psychedelics can change your personality type? I've been reading up on some of the other types, and looking back on myself when I was in high school (before I started tripping), I would definitely say i was an ENTP type. It still shows through with my test results actually
I'm 3/30 for Introversion, 18/30 for Intuition, 9/30 for Feeling, and 26/30 for Perceiving.
So Introversion and Feeling are my two weakest traits, and i think thats because since I've been taking these mind altering substances, my mind has actually been altered in some way.
I definitely spend way more time in reflection than I ever used to, and I don't think about things as logically as I used to either. Don't get me wrong, I'm an engineer so i can still think very logically if i put my mind to it. But when I'm just going with the flow of thought, usually I focus more on my feelings rather than, cold, hard logic.
Maybe its the drugs that have caused this change....or maybe its just growing up.

INTP - "Architect". Greatest precision in thought and language. Can readily discern contradictions and inconsistencies. The world exists primarily to be understood. 3.3% of total population.
I trip BALLS off 1.5-2 grams of cubensis.

It's been years since I too this test (shortly out of high school). Then, I tested INFP. This time it came up INTJ, though T and J were only "slightly expressed".(1 and 22 respectively)

ENFP, it actually described me pretty well when I googled it
I'd say I have a normal to high sensitivity, voted normal. I find that I get less visuals and more feelings/emotion overall

I am an INFP and join this forum to check the results, they are really interesting to me. Yesterday I had my first try with psychedelics and for some reasons I didn't see anything, could be disappointing because I hear all these stories you are gonna see stuff, change your life, etc. Even the person who gave me the doses, was thinking this is impossible. But it was still interesting as an information, I mean it was curious how I didn't and what does it say about me. Maybe I had a slight alteration of mood but that can be wishful thinking.
But I see some interesting statistics, most people who answer are on N, also higher I in all three tables, maybe just the people who try psychedelics. And INFP more sensitive. Maybe I would retest but I did many times during the years, I am 90% certainly INFP and I feel most of the time so.
