have a headache right now, too tired to do anything

i do not feel smart today and many beforehand.
everything is so frustrating with the little things to do.
maybe i am isolated to much cause i would if i could.
when i try to think clearly i have blankness.

i do not know what i want to do as a super objective

so why not low mood than low IQ or i got the smaller end of the stick?

Not everyone is a genius... I am not particularly smart but I just work hard. :/

i think i am put in the position where i am underutilizing my functions somehow. Extroverted thinking is extremely underutilized, sometime i sleep all day because everything i could do has been done. I dont know what to do with Ni, i think it must be for why i use the internet so much but in a way not suited for it?

Everything has converged into nothing ?

Not sure (or unsure) if you are an INTJ, but mood totally adds or detracts from cognitive functionality.

When you value intelligence and you have a time when you're mind doesn't work right, it'll make cycle of self doubt that keeps you from thinking clearly. Isolation doesn't help this. Getting an outside mind to meld with a bit can do a lot of good. Other people are more likely to see your better qualities than you when you're in a negativity cycle.

Watch some MLP then skype/call a friend. Then maybe some more MLP. Perhaps the episode where Apple Jack doesn't win the rodeo thing and doesn't want to return home, or one of the Discord episodes? Super Objective = cutie mark?

Getting the shorter end of the stick is a wonderful excuse. Maybe you have. If you have does that really change anything? You surely aren't the only one. In fact I bet there are youtube videos of people that maybe have worked through this problem before. Hopefully any of this was helpful.

If you were an ant, you would still be able to move grains of sand. Progress is still possible, and you still have many options availible to change something you don't like.

Assuming you are not that intelligent, did you expect something else? Is it difficult to reconcile with reality? What stops you from taking a proper IQ test and learning the facts about yourself if, as seen in many other threads, it was something that you wanted to understand or know in many instances.

Adding what Lot mentioned, your performance is not optimal with a low mood and headache, you might really feel bad after thinking about your life situation in that state.

So yeah, reconcile with reality, you are what you are, you can do stuff, nothing changes in the end, there is you and the world, no matter what IQ you have, you are still the same person you were. Maybe some sleep would help ;).

The problem is i don't know what problems i am good at solving (specifically where to find such places to be utilized)

Te externally organizes
Ni is convergent
Ne is divergent
Ti internally organized

i again am trying to go to school soon now that i have a new house.
i want to do ai but i don't like programming(memorization is meaningless)
i was learning python at codeacademy but its not interesting because i am not solving the problems for some purpose(i don't like learning something for no reason(so not Ti or Si))

in 2015 this company is releasing an interface like jarvis from iron man for programming defeats the point of learning programming.(takes years to get up to par)

By the same logic, why would you even bother with doing something complicated if there is going to be artificial intelligence in the future that will do everything you wanted to do for you and better?

I don't entirely find reason in that perspective, because (obviously) old things are going to become obsolete and I wouldn't bet my future on predictions or promises of software that replaces programming if I wasn't going to look how that also is going to become unimportant.

i hope am not so much illogical to people here
but i would like to know what happens when functions are underutilized
too much Ni(perception) not enough Te(action) Ni-Fi loop off balance

if INTJ's make things more efficient i do lack something to work on.

You basement
Intjs seem to get stuck whan they demand too much perfection. You cannot ensure 100% of what you learn is usable in a practical sense but 100% of what you learn does have an effect on your brain making it easier for you to capture similar concepts that you can find use for. Also, just because It doesnt seem like there is a use now doesnt mean you wont discover one later.

One thing for certain is that you just need to concentrate on the next step right now and get moving and stop looking so far ahead until the ball is rolling. Sleeping all day is less practical than the alternative.

:confused:

Somewhat reminds me of me when I'm really in deep thought about something. I'm so deep into that subject, that I don't realize how objective or realistic I'm being. In a sense, 'overthinking' about something.

Later on, when I'm able to 'come to' from my coma daze, I realize that what I was thinking about was a bit off, and much less significant then I thought it was. It was all just me tumbling down a rabbit hole, and it can be somewhat relieving to learn that my scary ideas were off the mark, skewed a bit from ambiguity and far-fetched assumptions.

I quoted all your posts, because I was trying to narrow down a concise and specific factor that is causing you distress. When narrowing down the problem into something clear and understandable, it may be much easier to find an appropriate solution.

You know yourself way better than I do, so that task is going to be mostly up to you.

I don't know why, I'm just going to make a big wild guess, but I think you could benefit from a 'break', a vacation of sorts. A time away from all this analyzing and overthinking. Play a video game, make the dog fetch a stick, go for an ice cream, call up a friend, or watch a comedy, anything that distracts your mind from trying to solve problems and anxieties. Turn on the part of you where your relaxed and having fun, and more carefree.

Sometimes our answers are not in the present moment, but will be found at some point in the future. Be patient in the meantime and switch your focus on something different.
