Anyone here would you describe yourself as Alpha?

Just thinking how different the schizophrenia experience would be compared to me with my totally non Alpha personality.
I think it sounds difficult too for the shock of a crappy illness like this

Is Alpha personality like the “Boss”?

I would always follow my sister when I was a kid. She’s just a year older than me though.
