After taking the functionstest, I was wondering if others, who also have a rather high Fi and Fe function, find that it seems like one can sometimes very much interfere with the efficiency of the other?
I find that in some situations, my need to cater other peoples needs inhibits my ability to judge and act according to what would be right and beneficial to me. It also doesn't help that one of my core values is to help other people as much as I can and allow them to be themselves as much as possible in the given situation. I often find myself distressed and feeling guilty if I cannot provide this and even more so if it is because of my own 'selfish' Fi reasons.
Do others recognize this? And how do you cope?
