conditioned stimulus

So if all behavior is reinforced via consequences in the environment around the organism, how much of our personalities are based off the consequences in the environment around ourselves as we grow up?

As an ENFP, HSP, yadda yadda, how many of my ENFP - personality traits stem from repetitive incidents of reinforcement given most frequently when I displayed those traits? How much of it is "superstitious" reinforcement of behavior? How much is something beyond behavioral definition?

Ooh hoo hoo, what a strange sensation...to feel your brain making new neural connections!!! Like little highways of energy flowing through my brain, surges shooting up and back across my giri...mysterious bodies undulating beneath a silken surface...

Is the picture of innocence necessarily the most innocent within? Do I immediately get associated with stupidity? With lack of experience? I can't tell. I'm still unsure how others actually see me. Do I attempt to compensate for my looks by saying smart sounding words? Am I too focused on my looks? Not because I think I'm beautiful, or even that I want to think I'm beautiful... but because I want to know who I am. Every part of me, including the physical side? Do I want that? Should I want that? What is right? All I want to know is what is the truth. Truth. What is? Something must be objective, yes, or why would we even have that concept??? If nothing were objective.... I don't know. Where does that leave me? In a world full of shadows you can't see, upside down, no gravity, no air but no need to breathe,  no thoughts, no feelings, no material, ugh, ugh, ugh, my brain is screaming at me. Too much to even think about!! Terrifying....
