r/BigFive

I'm relatively new to the Big Five and the interplay between all the different facets of it. I'm curious, for those of you who lean toward higher neuroticism and conscientiousness, does neuroticism ever interfere with your conscientiousness?

Why are there individuals in such low percentiles of conscientiousness? What possible evolutionary adaptive pressures or social advantages might have allowed these people, in past times, to play valuable and contributing roles within human groups and communities, and why might that diversity of traits have been beneficial to the collective?

Is it me or do some people on this sub like to look down on others or poke at them for having poor results? Why don’t you just leave some advice instead?

As far as I know, being Limbic means you're prone to being moody, like your mood switches faster when an individual faces difficulties and they find it hard to cope. While having Vital is being all positive, motivated and knowing what makes them happy. I am asking for myself and also because I am curious since if you look at it, it can be a blatant contradiction. The reason why I'm confused or curious is because being 'limbic' means you're prone to rapid mood switching but it doesn't necesarily mean that you're feeling negative all the time. For example, a person can have a positive outlook towards their life but still experience these rapid mood switches. Does that make the person automatically 'depressed' in MOTIVES?
