ENTP Shadow Functions : INTJ
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- ENTP Ego : Ne Ti Fe Si
ENTP Unconscious : Ni Te Fi Se
When we struggle we may switch the four functions we use.
This happens without us even realizing which is why we need to learn all eight. :)
Cognitive Functions
Perceiving Functions - Se Si Ne Ni
The four perceiving functions influence how we understand our reality right now. Your past experiences are Si, your current reality is Se, your plan for the future is Ni, and Ne is all the crazy connections and randomness along the way.
Judging Functions - Fe Fi Te Ti
The four judging functions influence our decisions we make everyday. We listen to the Fe feedback of our community, listen to our own Fi beliefs, trust how we understand a certain thing using our Ti framework, and lastly taking Te objective action.

I'm an ENTP and I totally agree that I act like an INTJ when I'm in a bad mental space, but it's also when I'm at my most productive and actually knuckle down and follow through on my ideas.
We really dig in on efficiency...it's useful & necessary but absolutely not the time to poke & prod us lol like we need to be emotionally responsible but when we're in crisis-mode it's the thinnest of ice
@@leebarbs7176 Yes very true. I'm likely to be very direct and abrasive in that mode.
@@dozermc5220 It can absolutely be a superpower at times though lol I wouldve never survived tour managing without that mode
Yes! Whenever I’m in, what my husband has dubbed, my “work mode” I am so efficient! But if someone even remotely gets in the way of what I’ve set my mind to, I just go off. Definitely not healthy for long periods of time but, hell, it gets shit done. 🤷🏻♀️
The trick here is, there is a balance. Ni needs goals, and Ne needs to receive ideas. However, this isn’t an or question.
Why not both?
Why not make your goal to receive the most ideas. Maybe define the terms. Learn the most about a specific subject.
I don’t need goals, i just need direction. I let the sail of life sail me towards my end-goal
As an INTJ: interesting.
In my more unhinged moments, I act like an ENTP. LOL
There's certainly a reason why the two most common villain types are ENTP and INTJ...
For real ones, it's all too easy to embrace the darkness when people around you already view you as the villain...
This is a part of us, we should not be afraid to go into it, we need to understand and be able to use it. Cognitive transition is part of our growth, we just need to go in and out in a controlled way. BTW thanks you are amazing.
as an young ENTP you help me so much to figure out my complex personality so thank you so much Melissa
I'm making a whole character based solely on your videos. You're a genius, know exactly how to explain things, amazing, I think he will be the perfect entp. -intp
I'd love to read about your ENTP character (I believe ENTP are happier as characters than as people, that's why I'm depressed)
@@claudiafmarone1385 I also think we can be happier as a character than in the reality.
Why male character and not female, Gab?
@@Lizzzi86 we don't get enough representation from ENTP women, right?
@@claudiafmarone1385 Yes, it's difficult to find a healthy ENTP character and even more difficult to find a healthy ENTP female character. But I understand that ENTP anti heroes are great for the story 😅
Although I want to see a Villan duo of two dysfunctional ENTP and INTJ for narative reasons. A duo that would naturally destroy itself eventually but it would be a great Rollercoaster to put into a story for others to understand.
I want to see this as well.
Entp with intj becomes toxic

Your welcome
I knew an unhealthy intj in my med school, just few months ago i had also being in mild mode of unhealthy entp (so still remain alone from others, more scary thing was i knew basic mma) and this intj being angry triggers me 3 times so my voice been remain entp (exess gentle victim voice for manipulation mode) and said sometimes i felt angry too and do this.... gave an elbow stike to big table partition, the big table shakes and almost hits his guts, his unhealthy stage being just healthy and apologised rapidly, but i said there is nothing to forgave
I'm an INTJ, and I become an ENTP when stressed.
What if ur entp with social problems
As a more mature e NTP I noticed a long time ago that I could manipulate almost every situation I wanted but I simply chose a path where I avoided people I could manipulate and only be around people I respect It does limit your social group but it doesn't pullout of the bad tendencies because everyone around you respect. I literally will pull back from a relationship when I know the other person has feelings more so than I could ever match to protect them from them self instead of using it in my favor
Feel the same. I have the feeling that people is usually to easy to manipulate and being so capable of doing It makes me feel scare of the bad person i could become. And that fear, in my social relations had maintain me in a low profile. All of this except when i fall out of control, when i am tired of losing or staying with the head down, i do whatever i do, usually with just destructive endings just in order yo archive whatever i want, even when probably that dont even is worth the lose or effort...
This resonated with me so deep, I have always had a good relationship with my mom but there was a point were her traditional values interfere with my happiness and our relationship I wanted to please her, and my family for the longest time but there was a point where I chose ME and exploded, I hurt a lot of people included my mom I hate the way I went about it, but I don't regret doing it, staying true to myself is the greatest gift from it, I found so much clarity and see life and people in a different way, I finally feel like I have matured.
I think instead of avoiding it, we can be aware when it shows, unexpectedly or intentionally. My intj shadows in the past has helped me get out of sticky situations, some has negative results and some has positive results. Thank you for highlighting the risks, but I think healthy entp can jump in and out the intj shadow (and isfj and esfp) seamlessly. I'm getting better at it.
It is draining though using Ni and Te intentionally BUT it's good for our growth since both functions are automatically triggered by Fi, which is foreign to us. Thanks Melissa
thank you for this video! i always find myself nodding thru them.
there’s another ENTP who did a video on the ENTPs ego/subconscious/shadow subconscious and super alter ego years ago. but he doesn’t edit his tangents like you do lol.
anyway you explained this really well!
i’d be interested in your analysis of our “super alter ego/chaotic evil” the ESFP. im a bartender and i feel like this is the mask i wear when i’m at work or if i’m threatened or stressed and i tried INTJ and THAT didn’t work. i feel i slip into an unhealthy ESFP. lemme know what you think!
please and thank you!!!
love your videos girl!
This video is rlly informative and explains a lot of my personal experiences tbh!! Thank you for this :D
Melissa is my favorite ENTP (other than myself...jkjk haha) ☺☺
she’s my fave other than myself too! i’ve never met another female ENTP tho. only males.
I finally started now to understand me. You are talking about the reality of an entp and not only the mainstream information of being an entp.
Thank you :)
Indeed it's aggressive, very very very aggressive imho. But I love it. This slaps my face even more than my INTJ friend's warning
I don't think I'm gonna stop behave like INTJs when I'm struggling, but at least I realized now that I shouldn't behave like INTJs when I'm actually fed up.
Melissa. Tunnnel Vision is sometimes good for us in stressful situation. When you need to fight with someone. U focus only on that person and their moves so u can beat them and not be beaten 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍
This was such a needed video… it’s obvious you took the time to research and understand this concept. I was becoming unhealthy when I was getting terrible sleep. My UNHEALHTY Fi function was coming out and really had an effect on my personal relationships. I do regret the actions I have done when acting within my shadow functions. And yes, this was an aggressive video but NEEDED!
If you make a video about jobs that ENTP personalities are most successful in it, would be great
I love love love the way Melissa showed the anger towards unhealthy entps thinking they are superior
I myself struggle to balance with acknowledge my own skills, but also being humble
It was a gr8 reminder I shld continue doing so, and confirmation tt I'm doing okay
I am also a young entp tt has not gone thru the tragedy tt is, the unhealthy entp, and I am glad I have come across this
This shall slowly be absorbed as I slowly connect this to "my" reality (aka undeveloped Si)
This… pretty much explains my life. People have told me to stop going in for the kill as it’s rarely worth it. But I can’t control it. I NEED to make it right in my mind and usually succeed.
ENTPs for the love of god please listen to this. The wreckage you can create is mind boggling and the only one who can get you out of that destructive state is you. When you do come out of it all the damage will still be there for you and everyone else to live with. There is nothing cool or admirable about any of it, it's just a f*cking tragedy that could have been avoided with some insight and self control
Sometimes, that damage is necessary. Sometimes people come into your life and think that they can mess with you without consequences.
I'm not exaggerating that this is one of the most helpful videos I have ever watched. I love the directness and clarity. It has helped bring me a level of awareness about my personality that I've missed. I am truly grateful for the tongue lashing.
I've been looking for exactly this information for a long time. Thank you so much!
I commented yesterday on your ENTP+ENFJ video that I was trying to figure out how to be nicer and here it is coming out this very day! Wow! :D
I found it very easy to access my Ni and Te especially, that sometimes you can see me acting similar to INTJs and ENTJ but talkative, this explains why my perceiving and judging is playing in the half percentage.
Playing the villan is delusional for an ENTP and dangerous because its a path we can loose ourselves in and it's unnatural. I find myself very thankful for my intj best friend because when I'm in a bad way she is great at resetting me.
Brilliant & spot on speedy concise delivery ..i only got distracted once slightly …& was straight back within seconds ,most fascinating that entp are in intj when in their shadow great piece 🤗 👍
This ties in so much to how we value competency so heavily... I almost always respect the hell out of INTJs for their competence overall - makes sense it's the same thing I lean on when I'm stressed.
In just a few minutes you described why my career crashed! Thanks.
I was trying so hard to make it work and putting myself increasingly in a box to make it happen. In reality theres sooo much more I want to do. I just felt locked in and didnt know what to do
thanks for the video. It wakes me up. I was just super mean to my family and made them feel sosososo bad and I regret so much.
Haha thanks for this. Sharing with my wife. FYI loving the improvements of the channel. Looking forward to collaborating one day.
Great explanation, very familiar. It's cool to know your shadow so that you can learn from it, let it happen and reflect on your behaviour, you will grow into an improved version of yourself.
This explains a lot. I was a scatterbrained class clown for significant parts of secondary school, and only got my sh^t together after I left. Now I realise it was a defence mechanism to cope with bullying and the discomfort of socialising.
as an ENTP i also was in a Darkplace i swtiched to INTJ for some deep introspection... i told my INFJ friend i'm an INTJ now... he laughed... well everything has his reasons... and a solution was this at that moment. and still is... i come over as an introvert as an ENTP.... i try to Vibe more instead of useing my universal expansive brain... and i'm Bipolair a true ENTP....
as long as i have a place to express and this is giving yoga lessons.... an ETNP with a morgan freeman voice talking slow. This took me some serieus skills and effort to do. just an other life of an ENTP...
I had to shut down a girl over text because I couldn’t stand being around her, she tried manipulating me to have a personality to love her and I played the game for a while made her open up after a month and then used the personality to tear her apart bit by bit and a few weeks later I heard from one of her friends who thought we were dating that she started cutting and and it’s rough but I did what I needed to do to escape that but I still feel bad that that’s what she decided to do
Also as an ENTP for the binding of my life I didn’t feel emotion I could mimic it but never truly feel and lead me to some bad actions that I’m not proud of I’m glad I can feel emotions now!
Also ENTP is Joker’s personality while INTJ is Batman’s
With that knowledge ENTP don’t make the INTJ come after you and beat you up in a dark street ally because clearly they will
In a divorce from my INTJ husband, I turned into him. This is wild.
Omg same with my ex! I acted like him and worse and I feel like I scared him a bit (it's okay, he cheated)
So true. Went to this the last month. I was so pissed of and inside me, i made my grlfriend respondsible for it. I knew that there Was something wrong with me but i cant get away these loops. Know its better and i can think about it normal.
Thx from Germany for your awesome videos :)
I wish this video was the first thing ENTP's saw after they take the test 99 times debating the outcome every time. It is a great slap in the face. Explains pretty much every downward spiral I have fallen into and how I could've not burned so so so many bridges. Kept me out of the courts and my family from being shattered to pieces. If you are a young ENTP rolling your eyes at this video, Know that Gravity works, terminal velocity only increases the larger your ego gets and the reality that is "the ground" will obliterate you and everyone around you as your crash into it. Be humble and find something in humanity you can cherish, a vector you wished it could achieve regardless of its setbacks.
Awesome use of the "terminal velocity" metaphor, very visual- you're speaking my language.
"...find something in humanity you can cherish, a vector you wished it could achieve..." now THAT is a statement all personality types would do well to remember, and I'm stealing it! It's so hard to do this when under seige by overwhelm and chaos and frustration, so easy to spiral into misanthropy and burn not just bridges but EVERYTHING , or simply slam the door shut and think pyromanic thoughts while allowing ignorance and entropy to achieve the same ends more slowly. Either way, in the aftermath it becomes increasingly difficult to sift through the ashes to find a warm glowing coal to breathe life into as the cold dark enfolds you in its embrace. Take heed, when entering the land of shadows, be certain you leave the door open and leave a light on!

My thought quote: I'm so superior/smart that I realize I'm just average ...to add to that, a recent epiphany isn't that I'm less for being average but others deserve more credit
Slipped into my shadow 3 months ago and traumatized myself at my behaviour...
Stay alert ENTPs..
I understand what you say
And what keeps coming to my attention is the way you talk in the camera. This ,in the field of personal and relational development, usually demonstrates your internal dialogue and the way you talk to yourself. And I just can’t love it!!
It’s like mommy grabbing me in the room doing something that is against her moral standards
That was a very aggressive video but I loved it!!!! Not only did it finally FINALLY confirm to me I am an ENTP it showed me that I’m not mentally broken when I revert to those behaviors. I’ve talked to my therapist time over time about how I become this monster when I feel depressed or anxious and I had always thought it was like BPD or something but now I understand what it was and I can now finally take actions to stop that behavior! I can’t thank you enough for making this video. I have been needing to find this for years! My therapist will be happy to hear I don’t believe I have a disorder any more
hey, i've been through that exact fucking rabbit hole.
MEDITATE.
our fi is so god damn useless that honestly it's probably the best "shadow mode" tell-tale sign. Do you really *want* *the* shiny (not any shiny, THE shiny) or are you bored? In fact, when boredom starts to get a bit overwhelming... Talk to someone. Ask them to please tell you some interesting stuff. NO SMALL TALK. NO FEELINGS (for a bit). Just, anything they find interesting.
Also, you will catch yourself feeling this mental "noise". It's not a real noise, it's just your mind feeling a bit DENSE. Like you're thinking a LOT about jack shit. Like you're not thinking about anything but your mind is ready to fucking catch on fire spontaneously. Can't quite word it but it's not quite anxiety - it just feels like a byproduct of anxiety.
If you find your behavior problematic and are actively trying to change it, odds are you don't have a (cluster B) PD, you're just somewhat immature. Guess what? That's VERY good news. Sam Vaknin has some very interesting stuff on PDs. It's another outlook, entirely.
Another bit of advice: you'll thoroughly notice your shadow because your desires feel ephemeral and rage is the driving factor (im usually a VERY emotionally calm individual, generally quite physically calm unless there's just too much going on, but on my shadow i just want to take MORE risks. Im not super risk averse regardless of the situation, but on my shadow ill just take POINTLESS and VERY DANGEROUS risks just to get out of my head). I'm generally not an "angry" person though i am somewhat volatile.
I'll give you one extra tid bit for anxiety and depression: both of those conditions are relatively easy to feel as we're still "weird" to an SJ normative society. Do you know how to not deal with SJs anymore than is necessary? Don't small talk. Be emotionally available but don't just talk pointless crap. You will *know* an NT when you see one simply because they are bewildered but grateful that you don't bore them with the SJ normative garbage. Filtering tool if you're meeting people - you won't get along with too many people if you do that, but you'll notice that the people you do get along with are much more accepting of you "as is" instead of you as a "2d projection" of yourself.
Best of luck, fellow ENTP friend. Life isn't always easy, but we can make it far more "agreeable" - yeah getting tasks done sucks - but some tasks are far easier if you get on with them instead of letting them become a massive problem. I never get *all* the tasks done because a) straight up i don't care enough to bore myself to death b) i have something to do if i want to give myself a few days of "calm time". I'll procrastinate them until I get some motivation going, then I'll get some shit done, then I'll probably nap from the mental stress from going "okay this should have gotten done like 3w ago". Praise yourself for getting tasks done - remember it's not a massive thing you've done - it's still a "task" - but by doing so you're allowing yourself to focus on all the shinies without your life falling apart the moment you face the slightest inconvenience. Carry a notebook and a pen, and just organize your tasks, the meaningless crap, whenever you get some boring time. As it turns out, just by overloading myself with Si procedural stuff - that's still "human upkeep" - i can get myself to just deal with it instead of doing all the boring stuff. I don't force myself to do tasks, but if I get overwhelmed/start missing out, I'll just write them down. Break them into as little components as I can - within reason. Yeah "clean kitchen" is a task. How about it becomes "do the dishes" "clean kitchen floor" "clean kitchen counters" "clean the stove". You can probably get through one of those and not die of boredom.
Then, you get to cross that out. It will motivate you because it gets you "going". Nobody is going to check up on whether you did the task, or how. But it's up to you how well (and thus how often) they get done - a quality job simply takes longer to fall apart. Also, don't forget your daily sunlight. No sun will kill your mood faster than you piss SJs off (tell them how much you dislike and fail to abide by their stupid rules and witness them just start seeing red lol)
I feel that all of us ENTPs have the hold ouserlvs back, because we are so capable of literaly achieving anything that people get scared and try to hurt us even when we are trying to be nice. There were so many times in my life that did not do what was best for me or what had to done only so people could feel good and confortable, I kind regret doing this but I am afraid I might end alone in life, so I try to please others, even if they dont make sense to me
edit: Grammar, still improving my english
Yeah when I'm upset it's like waking up the devil 😈, really over the top plans for complete dominance over my environment. It comes from being put in prison as a young man, but to this day if I don't feel like I'm in 100% control I lash out like I want to burn the world down so I can own the grass that grows back. The only thing that keeps me from obsessing over this silly dictator dream of mine, is psychedelics. It brings me back to entp base, what is scary is the things I'm capable of when healthy, and the things I obsess over when I'm not. It has me believing I'm bipolar, but who knows.
...interesting calling out us ENTPs- that's a first on this channel (I think)
but as you know regardless of what you say- we still know we are superior... we prove it every day:)
BUT it was nice of you to make us think about things in a way we normally don't, well done:)
I really fwy Melissa ❤️ she got to crashing out at 13:50 😂💪🏾
This is just true, could not be anymore true, recently my mother passed away and in my entire life she's been just that much special person for me, suddenly ppl close to me realized that I changed, I used to NOT judge people just because they have flaws and problems in what they are doing(or instead I usually try to help them with their problems), and I unconciously become VERY VERY MANIPULATIVE, being very direct person. The most noticeable thing is that I know what I said is going to hurt the other person feeling, but I said it anyway without a single hesitation because I think like "F it, I dont want to deal with it anymore" ,
Being on MBTI recently and found out I might be an ENTP and brought me here, glad to find the logical answer to it, Thank you so much Melissa
You are my top 1 UA-cam’s rn, if not ever. So damn relatable. Thank you
I couldn't stop laughing from being called out so hard. I'm aware I do most of this so I warn people before I slip into it that they need to leave me alone. If they don't listen to 2-3 warnings... Well they choose their path....
Goofy ahh comment
Don't blame Melissa for knocking them out of the park.
This information is so incredibly valuable thank you so much for posting it
As an ENTP I needed this read badly. Thank you.
i LOVE to become an intj from time to time
It's a matter of time before facing our shadow. It's life. Thanks for preparing us..

When i here you speak, it's like listening to my intuition.
Can I just say how hilarious and effective naming your playlist "watch in order" was? Seriously, my Ne Parent was gonna pick up anything that seemed interesting, without any order. Really excited to hear your ideas
2:35 She was talking about when Hitler tried to pull off that ridiculous moustache
Hrmm ... so this describes me at work lately, going to war has been a normal course of events which I was actually okay with TBH. Well played Melissa, I'm going to take a step or twelve back and rethink what I'm doing. This reminds me of scene in clone wars (it's a star wars cartoon) with dark Yoda although instead of owning the crank monster within, I think I took it out for beers and we had fun discussing the invasion :p
So so true! Everything's spot on! Especially that one part, when I offered a new idea to my parent, they point out every little mistake and detail I failed to notice which comes off as so belittling as in their minds I was making half assed decisions when I just stated out a random passing thought. I was just sharing a thought but they translate as me wanting that idea to be for the long term and belittle me for being so unprepared or uneducated. Partly because of this and some other personal problems, I definitely had a phase where I was overly emotional to the point it made me so uncomfy as it felt wrong to rely on my emotions but I did anyway, and I lashed out on a lot of my classmates and friends due to the exceeding stress. Looking back, I feel terrible as I lashed out on some of them in our groups so it was recorded in the history of our group chat, and while I still agree with my previous points, I still wished I could've said it in a better way.
This is the first time that I understand the shadow thing, ik your channel is abt ENTP but could you make one abt INFJ ?
Well thank you for sharing that Melissa. It was definitely worth paying attention to.
I am an intj. I fixate on one thing all the time.
Wake me up when sleptember arrives.🥰... 😇
thrilling I like being under protection
*says rude shit*
Hope I wasn't mean.
Anyway like and subscibe 🥰🥰🥰
The most ENTP segway ever 🤣🤣
5:50 - 6:53: HIGHLY... highly relatable
Spot on again. I'm always nice to people until I have a reason not to be. But while im being nice, im listening to you talk about all your weaknesses and insecurities and making notes mentally. Then if you mess with me, I will use them right against you and be a very very bad INTJ 😉
Your hair shines brighter than my future.
-ENTP
Ouch. Big truth bomb just landed. Thank you for this. It was needed. I'm healthier now but I've done some damage in the past.
As an INTJ, who switches to ENTP, it's when I switch to ENTP I do all the bad things you listed. So idunno if I'd call that ENTP switching to INTJ. The INTJ notices everything, the ENTP weaponizes it.
Intj without morals
Me finally after meeting with an intj i think my intj take over some times! When people take advantage of me somehow i see it clearly, my voice become cold and see the individual my dark side...& guess what i have right always & they respected me while i have my ne contengency plan for plan,
Intj morality---he pains me let him taste of his own medicine in publically
Entp--- just fe compliment him, ti brainstrom later in personal
yesss mommy keep yelling at me i fkin love it
(Entp) I understand that i shouldn't use this te with people but everytime i hear and listen this te voice inner my head i do the better things and in the best way is possible but i rarely can hear it, it comes randomly to my brain as another person talking to me, correcting me, this voice is smarter asf than me and i can't think/act like that naturally or call it to ask the right road, it could be terrible to other people around me but is a miracle tip to me, it calms me down and encourage me when i need, this voice is ALWAYS right but i can't never ask it for help or be that ideal "person"
what should i do?
Also, man did I ever need this today! 🙌
Feels like I'm at the psychologist :')
...I.. I mostly like my "unhealthy" side.
When I'm acting like myself people see me the wrong way and it gets annoying. Hard to explain...
To be honest, the best thing for me is when I find a balance with those shadow functions and use them when I need
+ I still don't understand why is bad to bluntly call people out on their mistakes. I'm ready to be called out if I do shit like that. Most of the times (with the people I know) they won't change for the best if you show them ways... they need to be f.ing bullied into that, for their own sake... Like why the hell are you repeating patterns that hurt you and only sit there complaining....... they don't even appreciate solutions, they want people to feel mercy. Well guess what, that disgusts me and I just can't stand it. It happens sooooo often with the people I have around.....
For how long am I supposed to use my empathy and patiently try to help them.. why are they asking for help in the first place if they dont even want it 💀
So basically... don't mess with ENTP. They will become within their shadows greatest masterminds with sole purpose of revenge.
I can't thank you enough melissa
I have destroyed people along with the relationship . I had a horrible fight with my mother a year before she died and I will carry that guilt to my grave. We kind of reconciled and I sent her something special that she really appreciated when I left the state. I was the only one not home when she died. Regrets....
As a Sx6 ENTP... I consider this as a superpower so no one can mess with me. And I have honed it on purpose as time passed by so I can use it as knife towards those who try to hurt me, but not against my loved ones (unless it's necessary.)
I admit it gets ugly, but trust me... People sometimes push you to do it, and I do it with a smile too.
I don’t think I’ve ever liked a UA-cam video or commented on one. But holy (can I cuss?) that was a come to Jesus meeting
Wish i had something to say about this video but i dont have much apart from the fact i needed to hear this because i acted like an insanely indecisive and emotional intj today. Time to be introspective i guess. Being the Big bad wolf isnt cool, we’re just becoming increasingly vulnerable to smaller triggers in my opinion.
From the shadows i come!
Your stare is little bit intimidating ...
more intimidating than INTJs ..
25M. i just want to say i HATED watching this a couple months ago when i was in a state of mental atrophy because bad things had happened and clearly i went shadow mode.
now that i'm... calm enough (?) i guess my take on this is: clashing Fi against Fe as a defense mechanism is naaaastyy. i can see clearly how i made everything worse then by setting a "Me vs Them" belief system that spiraled into getting people worried and becoming even more stressed because of it. (after all, there's no such thing as only accessing the desired unconscious functions - so that burning hot sauce Se was added to the mix as well) 🤦🏻♂
i guess the actual rope hanging by the abyss will always be Ti & Si for us. i've noticed since then that trying to emulate INTP generally brings better results when default behavior fails too much. i'm starting to think that the actual gateway past the inferior function is... really just developing the inferior function.
I realised that something changed inside me a few months ago, that I became mean, insensitive and intolerant. This video explains my behaviour very well.
I would agree, that this is not the way to tell an ENTP how to get better... Sounds logical but my inner self is like "how dare she tell me what I am and what I should do in that manner"...
Oh shit....I'm my brother in my subconscious. I knew there was a connection bc when I'm less healthy and frustrated. And..basically everything you said. Ahhhhhhh ok my brother is more of an istp but those get mixed with intj at times bc my brother is an aspie like me but we are like similar on aspie traits and not in personality or behaviors in alot of ways. Blah blah blah. This makes alot of sense. Good stuff.
Me emotionally wounded ENTP: ok just leave me alone… this person was doing this this person is someone who didn’t care this person didn’t see… lol
A lot of what you're describing as unconscious Te (lack of value for others emotions and nitpicking specific issues) sounds like a demon Fe/Si state. That said, I'm glad you went hard on trickster Fi and morality blackholes. An ex-friend of mine is an ENTP and it always bothered me how she would rationalize certain moral choices if it Ti worked in her favor. I feel it's every type's responsibility to start making their unconscious functions more conscious once they understand what those functions are.
what? i relate to this a lot. And I'm 20 yo. I'm crying.
You know I think this is the right place to write about this. My MBTI journey started 2021 july when I wasn't even 14 yo. There was a few months without any interest towards the thing but on december that year I kind of went wild with personality types. I first thought I was an INFJ, I actually thought so till 2022 december :d.. I know I am very young and maybe I shouldn't study MBTI and other things as enneagram but who cares.. 15 yo currently. I started to realize that I wasn't an INFJ at the end of november. I started to think I am an INTJ at the beginning of this year but some things as my talkativity and ability to be so humorous and sspontaneous was weird to me. I do have strong values as my father (ISFJ) has teached me and kind of coded me the way I am. anyway I do not have strong morals.. You see what I'm talking about? Though I have been able to do very well at school. Actually I think its because Finlands skecthy too easy school system. (I wish I could grow up again but in UK or USA). Anyways troughout your videos and especially this one I have figured out I have been an unhealthy ENTP all the time! I got my self esteem back and I know who I am! Thanks for making all these videos sharing your opinions which stand out from the group! The MBTI community is very stereotyped which is why I didn't get what my personality was. I probably should have used more time exploring the world of the functions :p .. I hope you read this and all good for such amazing person😊
(edit: I forgot to mention that I actually thought I was INTJ 7w6 and was confused as people said it was impossible. Well.. gotta go learn more on cognitive functions! Bye)'
( Sorry for a new edit did I forget to mention that I like to go out doing stuff like karting, swimming, walking in nature and stuff but I cant get anything done alone. That's why I have my social anxiety sharer INTP with me all the time)
Amazing Video you showed how i screwd everything up, do you have a video how i fix it? I did it again and the poor girl is suffering now :/
But that's brilliant. If the creative streak currently is not applicable you would WANT to go into the nitty gritty, to make sure you can follow through step by step. Now, is the shadow functions of the INTJ ENTP ? I.e. if their scheming won't work they start brainstorming ?
Thank god that I cam here after meeting an intj
Honestly I'd spent good 6 years in total maybe of my 28 years of life in that shadow function mode. Yes, it is hell. But strangely enough, it did actually made me able to connect with my Fi better. Huh. Cause bc that state was so prolonged by bad circumstances I simply could not affect, that I simply had to survive, o started learning how to be a bit better at being that, how to make my values a bit less fluid, this state of social isolation pushing me to do so much introspection. Being my worst critic at times but I did kinda need to be that real with myself. People around me suffered but it was also them who brought these crushing circumstances upon me so uhh. And they learned they must change they ways too bc I won't put up with it no more. Because I was too selfless when with ppl I was close to and that ate away at me too much. Because these people kept disrespecting my bonduaries, betraying trust, gaslighting me, trying to ruin my social life etc. It's not a good mode to be in, no. But it's what makes me confident I can survive no matter what. I've recovered and become so so much more stable, very understanding, even of people with strong beliefs that they cannot explain. I'm more patient with others and myself. And that's bc I know I can't be broken even if the worst comes to worst.
I consider myself a fairly balanced entp as well as my partner who’s an intj we’er both suffering from another younger intj who definitely seems to be operating in their shadow ..the only option i feel left to me is ..
in a controlled way enter my shadow to deal with them …this is a very volatile situation as you can imagine ..if i stick to my balanced entp head with this unhealthy intj ..I will get zero respect & more contempt..its a bit of a dilemma ..any advice appreciated 🤗
Do you ever think about doing a video on tips and tricks to be a better entp
I am an entp and
I am an emortal and why do we accept the dogmas of a stopid people's
It may have come off as a little aggressive. However, I also got the impression that you were speaking to someone you know specifically and it sounded like you were very concerned for them.
By different tests it came out once intj..next ENTP..hmm no more sure what is it about...🙄🧐🤔😨
Melissa you e started a binge at 2:30am now it’s 4am please help 😂
She's right, as a woman. But I think an ENTP' man's course is far too different than woman ENTP would, I understand why she says this tho.
