Well, one way I become unhealthier is if I want someone to like me, so I start copying their mannerisms and playing them back to the individual to gauge what kind of person he/she wants me to be.
I've done this so much and then the person didn't like me after awhile. But in general I do this, usually with celebrities or something, I tend to take on their interests (tv show/movie/music) and try and be like them. It doesn't really help but my interests are constantly changing because of that. And I guess it does change me but I just don't really notice it, like it's more subtle. Though, with MBTI, technically I notice myself more aligned with some celebrities who are the same/similiar types as mine. I'm ENFJ but typed as ENFP for awhile and so I really resonate with celebrities who are of that typing. And I didn't notice that until recently and then it's like, yep yep yep, I'm kind of like this too.
That makes sense. And I totally get that about the celebrities. I don't really do that particular one as I am so out of it with celebrities and popular culture. Out of curiosity, did you find your personality changed at all after you started identifying with ENFJ instead of ENFP? I've been mistyped a couple times, and found that I started acting and feeling a little differently whenever that happened, though that might be more due to me acting differently and thus getting mistyped, instead of accidentally behaving like my type descriptions ...
