LOL well as long as you're just starting to think, knock it off, you'll be fine.I heard on the radio today that study shows that thinking hard makes you fat. =( Im starting to think I can't trust the radio.
Do you think so? Emotionally and mentally speaking, that is.
If they haven't developed much of a feeling function then I would say yes.
A healthy strong thinker will acknowledge their feeling side. An unhealthy strong thinker won't. If you don't acknowledge your feeling side, you'll definitely be a risk to yourself.
Sounds simple, but that's really the only answer I can think of.
I'm not sure how to expound much further. :/I don't understand the question, what do you mean, Beat?
What do you mean by "acknowledge their feeling side"? Especially in the context of the day-to-day life of a strong T. Also what would count as ignoring it?
Thinking about your values and factoring them into decision making is what a healthy Thinker should do
This is what any human being does.
Maybe do you have a more specific example of what you're talking about in mind?
That's unfortunately not what every human being does...
I dunno, think about repression. Something traumatic happens, and you push it down. You don't acknowledge the thing that happened when you're making decisions, therefore it will come out randomly when you don't expect it. It would be more healthy to acknowledge that there is work to be done about the emotional issue, and that full functioning is impossible before the event is processed.

They can be if they piss everyone else off through "no sympathy" and not making personal alliances but the then their own logic is not sound enough to keep them out of danger zones in their lives, people will be burnt out on them and in return not give them any sympathy or help them out.
In other words, if one is going to stand alone without personal alliances or sympathy for others, one must be damned sure they are capable of sailing the boat alone.
