MBTI & Whump!

This is just a fun silly lil’ poll, nothing serious! I’m just wondering if there is a predominant (or a couple/few predominant) MBTI type(s) that are into Whump. The term “Whump” here is all encompassing, it can be whatever type of Whump, nothing in particular.

What’s MBTI? It stands for “Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator.” You can take a common (FREE) test here to figure out your type if you want!

(RAN OUT OF OPTIONS TO ADD!😤)

For the reminding types, comment the affiliated emoji to vote! I will make a separate tally after the poll is closed and share results!

I’m not usually one for conditioned whumpees, and especially not for recovery, but I think I would really enjoy those types of scenes more if the trauma responses were allowed to be more nuanced and complex.

This isn’t a criticism of anyone specific, it’s just something I think I lack in the community, and I don’t think I’m the one to write it either, but I think that what puts me off is that I know what it’s like to be triggered by something, and it’s such a complicated and not always conscious process.

Like yes they might feel that someone they’re with is angry or upset with them and suddenly try to do anything they can to please them, but that might come with a wave of shame and self loathing once they’ve realised that nothing was wrong and they’ve just embarrassed themselves in front of someone close to them.

Or maybe they’re scared of that part of themself, and they’re so scared that other people will see it or hurt them again that they push them away, maybe they test their boundaries, maybe they hurt the people they love instead because they want to see what happens when they finally do get angry.

Maybe they hate that part of them that makes them become someone else, that makes them get lost in their mind. Maybe they resent how it makes relationships hard, how they try to move on but some small thing ignites a carefully buried spark of fear and the whole thing starts again.

I also wish there wasn’t so much of a power dynamic of whumpee and caretaker, where the whumpee is someone who is mentally ill and traumatised and not expected to ever be independent or live alone. No, I want them to have friends and partners and lovers, and struggle and find joy in equal measure, on their own terms.

There’s absolutely people writing this sort of content, and there are things I will read because I think they capture that complexity, and of course these are my personal feelings but I do urge people to think about this when they write, if they want to.

okay but whump where both caretaker and whumpee are injured or ill so it just kind of morphs into whumpee and whumpee (worse) and they’re just kinda trying to hold on to each other!!!

That thing in whump where caretaker goes to tend to whumpee's injury only to realize things are so much worse than whumpee initially let on and now caretaker is way out of their depth and very scared >>>>>

[whumperiffic]

Don't pass out otherwise we get creative.

[whumperiffic]

I just want unlimited whump content with the exact scenarios and tropes I want in the media format I want for the characters I want.

Is that too much to ask?
