Is it normal to be so conflicted about everything?

7 Comments

I am in my mid twenties. I have grown to accept the way that I am, but still wonder why this is. I must be the epitome of being a Gemini

I never have one view, or one opinion on a matter. Most of the times those views and opinions are contradictory. This happens even with feelings.

Part of me is religious, other part is atheist.
Part of me is introverted, other part is outgoing.
Part of me feels sorry for being emotionally distant to my family, other part doesnt give a shit.
Part of me is guilty for being nasty to the
ex gf, other part is convinced she deserved it.

The
list
is
endless

What's worse is my mind latches onto the opposite view many times. Example: If you told me right now that I needed to go to a therapist about this, my mind would hold the view that I'm fine, and maybe even start acting fine. If you said I was fine, I would be unsettled and want to pursue one. And no, reverse psychology doesnt work

Many times I make extreme decisions and later forget the reason why I made them. So I change it, because I developed a new perspective. Only to forget again. Rinse repeat

Sometimes I feel there is a separate person in ms that can think for himself. I have never done drugs

    yeah I find it's one of the curses of being open minded and seeing both sides of every argument, it makes you awful indecisive.
    I think with religion you're probably agnostic.
    I think most people are a mixture of introverted and outgoing, we all like private time to ourselves at times but human beings are social creatures by nature.
    I think you're probably just grappling with a lot of issues that people your age go through, and at times you're going to take an apathetic approach to these things whereas in times of greater emotional vulnerability you will feel more and your thought patterns will differ.

      I looked up what agnostic means and it very much explains me. Thank you for giving me the relief of figuring out and identifying myself, even though it's just a part

    Your sun sign does not rule your personality, and with 12 houses, a sun, a rising and a moon sign, thinking you are a perfect Gemini only knowing your sun sign, is like driving a car in traffic without ever having been in one before.
    The rest of your post sounds half like schizophrenia and half rebellion. Most will probably work itself out in time, and you'll be fine with what's left.

      Am not superstitious at all. Last time I read a horoscope was maybe a decade ago. I was just trying to find some sense or pattern to my double-natured way of everything, and Gemini is associated with duality so...

    Sounds like a poorly formed identity. Take a free on-line Myers-Briggs personality test to find out more about yourself. Then you can read about which of the 16 personalities fit you best.

      I love the Myers-Briggs types

      I have taken the test many times. It fluctuates between ENTP and INTP. But last 3 times it was ENTP

        So OK. Get going on getting the background you need for INTP/ENTP type careers.
