Select three of the five clusters.
Explain, in 250 to 300 words where you think you fall within the spectrum of each. Of the five clusters, where do you think your personality fits overall?
The three of the five clusters that fit me the most I would have to say is Neuroticism, Agreeableness, and Open to experience. According to the text the characteristics associated with Neuroticism are; Angry hostility, anxiety, depression, and vulnerability. Some of the characteristics associated with Open to experience are; feelings, actions, and ideas. Last but not least some of the characteristics associated with Agreeableness are; trust, straight forwardness, modesty, and tender-mindedness. I believe that I fall on the high end of two of the three clusters that I have mentioned. When it comes to Neuroticism I have very bad anxiety. I am a very paranoid person because of a lot of stuff that happened in my past, I have been stalked, raped, and abused by my daughters father and I am only 21 years old. This is another reason that I have a lot of anger towards certain people and I refuse to get into any sort of conflict but my problem is holding everything in. Because of my experiences I fall on the low end of agreeableness. I have a very hard time trusting people even if they have not abused my trust and I rarely say what is on my mind because I am scared to hear the answer back. When it comes to open to experiences I think I am now on the high end. After a lot of therapy and even though I still have a lot to work on, I am becoming a lot more open to new things and new amazing experiences. You cannot live in the past, you have to move on and learn from it and grown into a better person and I am now learning that.
