Describe your personality in a short paragraph. Just for a fun getting-to-know-you thing and also to compare to other bipolar folks.

[MusicLover82]

I'm a big-time extrovert. I'm caring, kind, and sometimes quiet in groups. I'm a people pleaser and peacemaker. I'm also bossy because I'm a teacher and natural-born leader. I often talk too much about my own issues and problems when I'm with a friend or talking on the phone. I'm working on that. I'm an optimist for the most part, when I'm not feeling anxious.

I'm very empathetic and sensitive to the needs of others. At times, to a fault. I make friends easily, I'm quirky, and "think outside of the box." I try to have a humorous approach to life and enjoy sharing that with others. It keeps me sane. Also, I work hard and get bored when there isn't a goal in sight. However, I can be a little absent-minded, but some of us creative thinkers just happen to be that way. I enjoy learning and seek pleasure out of life while it lasts. I just wish I wasn't such a worrier, but I'm working on that.

I'm a perfectionist and a people pleaser. I'm a creative problem solver, but I like things to be "right." I'm very sensitive to judgment and criticism. I have a good sense of humor and can get along with anyone. People trust and confide in me. I don't hide my stress very well, and I'm more open than I should be sometimes. I am easily overwhelmed but also need the validation of accomplishing things that make people happy. I'm a very good public speaker. I also really like cats. Cats are tops.

I'm an introvert, shy and quiet. I love cats, music and nature. I'm a former band geek, my instruments were trombone and baritone. I like to.go.campimg, but haven't been in a couple of years. I love spicy food. Hmm what else, Im the type to listen to others issues. That's about it off the top.of my head at almost 3am.

I'm an introvert who loves meeting and learning about the lives of strangers. I'd do anything for my friends and family. I'm furiously loyal and hardworking - a true Hufflepuff, indeed, and somehow I'm an open book and a mystery at the same time. That's about it, I guess.

[lilcreecher]

That's hard to do. I'm chaotic but reserved. Foul and clean cut. I have a strange personality that pretty much depends on the week you get to meet me. I'm very difficult to get to open up but once I'm there you'll want me to shut the **** up. But I do turn in a snap. Even on old friends.

In-ur-face.

I believe I have many very different personalities.
I can be macho and come across as a tough guy but only if I feel I have no choice.
I can be very quiet and closed up and shy and just want to be alone at times.
Much of the time I can be very caring and friendly and I have good sense of humor.
Then there is the creative side of me when I can't stop writing or creating things from
scrap or refinishing or restoring old furniture or getting into photography.
I know there is probably more but I think thats most of me.
It also depends on where my bipolar has me at a given time.

I'm kinda shy, but long to be validated by others.

[JustJace2u]

I am most definitely an introvert. I am empathetic as well.

[raspberrytorte]

I'm a ditz. Total airhead. My mind is always not sure where, but I'm zoned out about eighty percent of the time. I'm a dork. I really care about people. I don't follow the news anymore because I cry about total strangers. I'm introverted and mostly don't like being around people because I feel like an alien. And I'm angry a lot of the time, almost all of the time and tend to rave, and I so have a tendency to geek out!

[Woolly Bugger]

Boring. Dull as dishwater.

Introvert.

I consider myself an honest, friendly, and sometimes goofy person. I tend joke around a lot, including joking about myself, but it's all done in good taste because I don't want to make anyone feel bad. In fact, I actually feel bad about making people feel bad!

I can be somewhat shy in person, though. If I talk with people, I'm usually not the person who initiated the conversation. So as you can guess, I generally prefer to keep to myself and avoid trouble whenever I can (well, that is, when I'm not hypo/manic).

Social skills wise, I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer. I have enough social skills to hold a conversation with someone, but I'm not good with going to events such as parties, sports games, etc.. I tend to break down internally due to feeling overwhelmed, and that can cause me to inadvertently or unknowingly do things that are considered "antisocial". (Not my intent, but it happens.)

[ologist]

Introvert with utterly offbeat sense of humor. Pessimist (not sure if nurture or nature or depression). Shy: do better on Internet than IRL.

Opinionated but am trying to shut up (incl inside my head). Oddly, tend toward oversharing and am desperate to shut that one up.

Other than that, I identify with woolly bugger

It really depends on when you meet me. I would describe stable me as:

A homebody. Shy, introverted, socially anxious. It can take me awhile to feel comfortable around people but when I do, I will talk your ear off. I love good conversation and good people. I've got a weird sense of humor and love to laugh. I'm very artistic and love to draw, paint, crochet and craft. I'm not a leader nor am I good at following, I just kinda do my own thing. Not a fan of authority as I find most people who enjoy being authority figures are azzholes. (Not always, just usually) I'm messy and imperfect and tend to like/get along with people who share this quality. I spend a lot of time alone thinking.
