Behind Mitchison's rather calm and solid demeanor (as described on the previous page) lies a much more passionate, tumultuous, emotionally complex person (described below). She may sometimes feel torn between maintaining the status quo and a craving for intensity in her relationships.

Quiet, deep, emotionally complex and intensely private, she is not a person who is easy to get to know and understand. Naomi Mitchison is extremely sensitive but disinclined to show it, and she only allows a special few into her inner world. Like a wary animal, she is cautious and mistrustful of those she does not know until "he sniffs them out". She is highly instinctive and intuitive. Naomi Mitchison usually has a strong, immediate gut reaction to people, even though she may be unable to clearly articulate why she feels the way she does.

Naomi will most certainly never forget the hurt and she often harbors grievances and resentment for a very long time. Forgiveness does not come easily to her.

Whatever she does, Naomi does with passion and fervor, and she often goes to extremes. Mitchison can be hot or cold, but never lukewarm about anything.
