I really want to know what INTP and ENTP have in common and in what they differ absolutely, in the unhealthy state.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Something like this:
Something like this:
I don't know any unhealthy INTP examples.
I'd say the reason for this is because unhealthy INTPs often just seem like retarded ISTJs; The Ti often can seem like inefficient Te, especially at work, they completely ignore funny things due to disgust of Ne, They make everything exactly like it's "usually done" and try to force that upon others(Si). The Fe actually barely shows up.
There is no absolute, it's a continuum.
The gist is that INTP typically is an abstract modeller, whereas ENTP likes to tinker in reality and make things manifest.
ENTP engages the world in a back and forth, INTP explores the world to take knowledge back inside for the model(s).
Typical problem for INTP is detaching too much from the world and desires, whereas ENTP is more likely to struggle with self-indulgence.
The two common functions are Ti and Ne.
When Ti is primary (INTP), Ne is used to bring back information for Ti to use much like a dog bringing back bones.
When Ne is primary (ENTP), Ti helps create and secure footing as the ENTP springs from one Ne connection to the next.
It's kind of hard to answer the question succinctly, since there are various types of INTPs, ENTPs, and un-health.
