What is the personality type of James Laird? Which MBTI personality type best fits? Personality type for James Laird from Shrinking and what is the personality traits.
James Laird personality type is INFP, so he's not the most extroverted person in the world. This was a problem in the past, but now he's made peace with himself and with the world. He's also, I think, a bit of a hypochondriac. He has always been prone to this condition, and it just hasn't gotten any better since he retired. In fact, it seems to be getting worse.
He's also a bit of a drug-taker, but not a huge one. He's had his share of alcohol-related problems in the past, and he's not proud of what he's done in those situations. More recently, he's taken to smoking pot occasionally, but he doesn't do it to get stoned; it's more for the social/pleasure aspect. He can get relatively 'stoned' quite easily, so he tends to avoid that when he can.
I also have a borderline personality disorder, so I tend to see the world through my own skewed lens.
