Classification of personality types
If we take two axes: the first axis of mental health-illness and the axis of psychological age (adult-child), we get the following picture:
- there is someone who does something in life and for life and it brings him joy — an active person
- there is someone who does little for life, but knows how to enjoy life — an uncontrollable child or simply Dunce
- there is one who suffers all the time and does nothing — this is an emotional person
- and there is one who does, because it is impossible not to do, because this is his cross and his torment, that is, he does and suffers — this is a martyr.

Relationship with the Creator-Consumer-Romantic-Parasite classification
In the Creator-Consumer-Romantic-Parasite classification, there is one axis — Adult-Child (the circle of responsibility is wide, I take care of myself and others — the circle of responsibility is narrow, I take care of myself and even then not always), and the second — at whose expense the care is carried out: for my own or for someone else?
In this classification, the axis «At one’s own expense — at the expense of others» is replaced by the scale of the emotional state Healthy — Neurotic:
A mentally healthy person usually maintains a high emotional tone in his soul: joy, positive, curiosity, interest, concentration.
Mentally unhealthy, neurotic — more often sad and worried, tormented by guilt, angry at the world, experiencing fear.
Experiential personality — the addition of the characteristics of a neurotic and a human child
An emotional person is not always realistic and, drawing pictures of situations, lives more often in the negative.
What am I supposed to do, wear rose-colored glasses? Look for another fool!
In reflection, there is no habit of putting oneself in the place of another person, everything is measured «on one’s own», egocentrism is developed. Egocentrism and negativity give rise to the habit of objecting.
No, it’s just hard to say something about others …
As a theme, experiences of apprehensions and fears are typical.
You didn’t understand anything! You can’t say anything at all, you distort everything!
In connection with fears, the initiative is not very characteristic, more often there are defensive-aggressive, in any case — responses.
But what, should I climb forward all the time, like other upstarts?
An emotional person lives either in dreams or in the past; making plans for the future is unusual and unacceptable for her.
Somehow scary … Yes, you can jinx it …
===
An active person is the union of a healthy person and an adult. ===
An active person is realistic, but inside a realistic picture, she tends to be more positive.
People are different, but decent ones can always be found!
The habit of hearing another person, understanding his views and position is developed.
I really want to learn how to do it even better!
Against the background of reasonable caution, fears are not characteristic of a person. The person is open to possibilities.
Possibility is what is possible (permitted) according to physical laws, at least theoretically. The area of our capabilities is very wide (walking on hands, standing on your head, flying into space, etc.)
Ability is that possibility that we believe in as real. The main oppositions: possibility — necessity. It is possible and necessary.
The problem is the opportunity. In the category of problems, people think with negative thinking, in the category of opportunity, with positive thinking.
Life is interesting!
An active person is not passive, she is easy-going, gives rise to initiatives, seeks and tries new things.
By the way, I want to ask you…
The active person is always in the now and always in the future.
«Now» is needed to quickly create the most attractive future, and only for the sake of a radiant future does this wonderful «now» exist!
