That's the thing though that I'm trying to say (and almost posted something about)
People talk about how draining in it is in the wrong type, but no one talks about mind vs personality, what if you're told or test as the wrong one, and because you do find traits, and familarity with others in that type, you're probably going to take it. This is especially seductive for types like INTPs, because "people do suck", i've been there, so they pulled further away from other types, reinforce each others behaviour (in a type specific forum), argue/debate and call it social interaction, and i've watched them because I didn't click what was happening.
There is several other things they do as well. I managed to break free from the spell or numbness/detatchment for a better word, because of a relationship with my INFJ, which being into personal growth as well, I went from T80%~ to 1%, opened up, allowed myself to be vulnerable.
INTPs, like I said above. How is someone supposed to get out of that reinforcing cycle?
I used to be like randomINTP on this forum, except for me I acknowledged it as narcissistic traits, not full blown narcissm. It's so f*cking difficult to not say something. (especially when you have a compulsion to which has been reinforced for years)
If what I said in my post before this one, Jung = where personality starts, and MBTI personality measured by behaviour, then use two types, sure as hell be a lot less stressful on self than not knowing and having outside suffocate the life out of you, because you'll have a foundation.
I test as INTP, and I have behaviours like INTP and developed, but ENFP on Jungs cog functions, and THAT feels like me, or at least what i've grown to. (and I'm positive I was ENTJ in the past)
If this is true, Jung - core you, MBTI - mask you, a sticky should be made (I haven't seen one)
What also needs to STOP being said is "you're stuck as what you are" which is BS, that needs to be reclarified. When i first heard it, it was "no. it's FIXED. End of". Which simply isn't true. How many people believe that now?
I went from unhealthy non emotional T80%~ to feeling and expressing and feeling a lot better in myself. Not holding everything in. (still work in progress ofc, but it stands)
I'm going off on one again. Goddamn Ne/Si High Fe/Fi.
Someone please this to a mod. (even if you can't see what i'm saying)
(unless my functions are just screwing with me and I sound crazy xD Well, at least I know I feel better than I have in years)
Point made any way.
