Creativity and You

I hope nobody minds my personal anecdotes. If you do, well, deal with it I guess.
I have always called myself a creative person, and when comparing myself to a list like this, I find that many of these traits apply to me in some way or another. Truthfully, not ever quality describes me exactly. I still don't like being alone, but some of my best ideas to come to me when I am alone.

Creative facts:
  • Being observant is more than just an annoying OCD induced trait. It's a trait of creativity. Wonderful! Now I can continue to observe without feeling somewhat awkward!
  • Trauma can actually be very beneficial when used as fuel for something positive. It can drive people to do amazing things (and also horrible things when used in a negative way). Hooray for trauma(?)
  • Stalking "people-watching," is a trait of the creatively inclined. They want to know how everything works and why people do what they do. A fascination I find gains me the confused look of my boyfriend when I move things around and see what influences other things to move.
 Creative opinions (much better than regular opinions haha):
  • A list that describes me quite well. Thanks for the ego fuel
  •  Not so much "informative" as it is an article for fun. Most of these were things we could have figured out on our own if we ever asked ourselves, "what makes me creative?"
 Question:
 What personality types can be confused or crossed with creativity? Obsessive, perhaps?
