From a quick glance at the image, you might see both a fish and a cloud - but which did you see first?

According to Mia, if you see the cloud first, you may "seem like a very brave and resilient person on the outside" but are actually "rather sensitive on the inside and are easily affected by the words and actions of those around you".

Continuing to explain the personality type of those who see a cloud first, she added: "You hate the idea of settling for someone or something and have very high standards and goals. Your personality is so attractive and charismatic that people cannot help but be drawn to you."

According to Mia, those who fit in with this category are normally 'kind and friendly' but can also be "quite threatening in times of competition".

However, if you saw the fish first, the TikToker claims you have a "life is short" mentality, which means you live life to the fullest. She continued: "Your time is the most valuable thing to you, so you hate wasting it on people and things that don't deserve it".

She also claimed those who fit in this category are very 'hard' on themselves and 'give 100%' whenever they do anything.

"That said, you're also a major worrier," she continued. "And spend a lot of your time stressing about the unknown."

Mia added: "You're an extroverted introvert who prefers to spend time alone but can also become the life of the party when needs be."

In the comment section people were blown away by the optical illusion and Mia's observations.

One person wrote: "Fish... and definitely true... I am an extroverted introvert." Another added: "I believed it on extroverted introvert." "Fish and it's all true," added a third.
