What is your your biggest weakness that you have turned into your biggest strength

Recently, I have came to know that I am a OCD and trichotillomania patient and because of my personality type i.e, INFP T I'm suffering from overthinking problem. At first I was very much demoralised because I thought that I was mentally strong to balance my physical weakness but as the truth came I was very much depressed but then I determined that like how a coin has two sides similarly everything has both positive and negative sides and if I waste my time wondering about my weakness then I may not compete with this world so I came with a solution i.e, the fact that makes INFP unique among the 16 personality types is that INFP have an ability to daydream and because of OCD and trichotillomania I can think and withstand on one topic for several hours, moreover I have a quality of INTP i.e, relating two distinct topics with each other. So, now I am working to turn my weakness into my strength.

Share ur such experience if you have and if you want just what I can say is just like how a coin has two sides similarly everything has two sides it depends on us how do we interpret them. Thank you.

Yeah, you got that right. :)
Sadly, my biggest weakness is playing against Slav defense and it not yet corrected!
