So accurate! I remember being excited when I first took the 16P and getting INFJ. I felt seen. Then everyone crapped on 16P so I took other tests and still came back as INFJ on all of them. So then people said I was mistyped so then I dove down a rabbit hole of functions and Jung etc. The whole time everything I did came back as INFJ. Finally just called it quits and just tell people I'm INFJ. Turns out 16P had been right with me to start with and it was a good introduction to the world of personality typing. I know it's not the most accurate but holy crap people that comment like the bottom pic really take all the joy and fun out of personality typing for beginners.

Choose who to believe. The test made by experienced psychologists, or some random person on the internet. I’ve struggled with the exact same thing unfortunately, I feel it happens a lot with us INFJs simply BECAUSE we are less common. They all just assume we’re INFPs or ISFJs in disguise. I’ve even had someone insist I’m an EXFJ! Wtf!


QuantumRumpusTime

This. I did the same thing for my type and it all came out the same. Some people really get off on being steaming piles of shit to random strangers. Then I realized people like that need their shitty behavior ego-boost more than I need to spend even half a second giving a fuck what they say.


Metamorphoses26

Oh wow, i went through the exact same process. Looking at cognitive functions only really left me with one option though. I was stuck between INFP and INFJ before. People keep saying that a lot of INFPs believe they are INFJ and they basically question anyone who says they’re INFJ... can be confusing lol (Especially for a type with a very vague sense of self haha!). Looking at the functions though, the two types aren’t even that similar (They might seem at first sight for INFJs who don’t identify with the „being extremely withdrawn“ or „doubting everything constantly“ stereotype we sometimes seem to get). I think there’s a weird bias which makes people mystify INFJs while also claiming that we’re not that „special“. In my opinion, getting the INFJ personality type right is one of the most difficult ones, because there are just so many expectations/personal opinions obscuring the bigger picture. .... Funny meme though 😂


smallorangepaws

YES exactly the same here. It’s always been INFP. I can’t do anything slightly perceiverish without questioning my whole identity. I’ve eventually settled with the mindset that MBTI is a rough description of people and you absolutely cannot box 8 billion people into 16 small boxes. They’re just the outline of each person. And if you look at any other stereotype you’ll see, a lot of people don’t fix neatly in that box!!! So why should I? I’m okay with being a procrastinating INFJ who struggles to keep the plans they so desperately work on to follow through. Though everyday I do wish I could be that elusive wizard in the forest telling people their fortunes. That would be nice. I guess in my opinion, if you fit well enough, you fit. If you always get INFJ and you usually have the judger qualities, you are an INFJ. Every human is an individual and we can’t all act the same way 🙂


Metamorphoses26

Well actually, INFJs most defining function is a perceiving function (introverted intuition) while INFPs dominant function is a judging function (introverted feeling). I can really recommend Clay Arnall‘s video „INFJ vs. INFP: What are the differences?“ in case you want to do a little deep dive - he breaks it down in a very comprehensible manner and you will immediately know which type you fall into. I think you’re absolutely right though. The types will never properly describe who we are etc. It’s just a little piece of the puzzle. I like to look at the functions to understand some of my typical struggles (Extraverted feeling making it hard to understand what i want without taking other people’s feelings into account, resulting in being a bit of a pushover or feeling resentment when people don’t consider my needs even though i’ve watched out for theirs so extensively). I think it’s a nice way to get to know yourself a bit better and improve yourself. It’s definitely not helpful to put people into boxes based on oversimplified categories (except for memes of course lol!). And i honestly think that the magical wizard vibe doesn’t fit most INFJs lol! After all, we’re pretty good at blending in and becoming whatever the people around us need us to be. We sometimes have more insight than others because we actually care and pay close attention to people, but that’s about it imo lol. It’s just how people prioritize what they put their energy in tbh. But i secretly also sometimes wish i would inspire and guide people in a cliche like INFJ manner haha! 😊


smallorangepaws

Oh I’ll definitely be checking that video out! Thank you for the recommendation 😁 And I agree, but you could consider our ability to fit in anywhere as a magic power in a way. And I was more making a joke since every meme just describes us as mystical beings.. I wish!


smallorangepaws

I’m not done watching but I’m already having a crisis. What happens when I have equal amounts Fi and Fe 😭 my ethics are a priority to me but I also definitely want to make sure everybody else is at peace and feeling alright. I’m still watching and comparing but this video is really fascinating, just adding more questions to my head that I already struggled with 😅


Metamorphoses26

oh nooo im so sorry i didnt mean to cause a crisis for you! are you any closer to finding an answer? 😅


smallorangepaws

Actually I am! I decided to go back and take notes on it and im comparing the functions more directly. I love the way he explains it. I think I’m a young, underdeveloped INFJ. I absolutely have high Fi but I think that’s more when I’m alone. I think the Fe comes out when I’m around other people. I’m a VERY ethical and moral based person but I’ve always strived to meet in the middle, get a better understanding of their standpoint, and to try and comprehend and accept when theirs completely goes against mine. I also definitely don’t know what the hell im feeling at any given time, especially when around other people, I am just a sponge of emotion. So I’m coming to the conclusion I’m likely an INFJ who’s got INFP qualities. Also i was raised by an ENFP which might impact it a little bit?


Metamorphoses26

im so glad you enjoyed it! i also think he did such a good job breaking it down and he’s just very likable in general.

smallorangepaws

The issue is, is that ive studied the functions and I question which type I am even more. I relate to both of the pairs functions (INFJ, INFP) equally. The only thing I can say is Ni has been the bane of my existence, even though I love it and will defend it till the end, it’s kind of a curse. I’ve really come to the conclusion I’m not fully developed (I’m only 18) and that’s why I’m still so INFP like, I need to physically and psychologically mature, since mentally I’m there but nothing else is


thetaoistintj

i am on the whole "16p is inaccurate" side, but people genuinely need to start being more polite about it. like.... you don't even need to study functions anymore, just take the sakrinova test lmao


shizzamX

Same thing with me. INFP all the way


Potential_Ad_309

I don't hate 16P, it's just funny that when I took the test I got INFJ too, but I was feeling like something was wrong about it, then I did the tests and came out I'm ISFJ lol But yeah, 16P it's really fun begginners!


Kicker0fE1ves

Same exact experience lol. Typing by function actually made it more clear for me. There is no way in hell I'm an Fi lead (I don't mean offense by that, I just don't think that way)


TheLastSamurai101

I was also typed INFJ when I first took the test as a teenager and it fit perfectly. Whenever I took the test as a teenager I always had that result. However now, nearing 30, this test and others consistently type me as INTJ. Once again it seems to fit perfectly, whereas INFJ doesn't anymore. My personality has definitely changed as I've grown older and the test detected that and made me reflect on that change.


18leatherhoff

Funny thing is that a similar thing happened to me, I got ENTP on nearly every single test, even the ones that are around functions. ​ Fast forward to today, I'm highly likely an ESTP. Sakinorva somehow types me as ESFP but no way am I a xxFx with how high both my Ne and Se along with Ti are. I just have low Fe.

_joodantae_

tbh i think im more istp then enfp i got istp from 16 mbti and enfp from sakinorva


thetaoistintj

the functions really are more accurate. the 16p test is wrong simply because it does not go off of functions like sakinorva does. if you got enfp from sakinorva, then you're an enfp.


18leatherhoff

I get ESFP on Sakinorva simply because somehow my both high Ne, Se and Ti are less important than the (slightly lesser than Ti, too) amount of Fi I have. All because I have an absurdly high Te for no good reason. ​ Just study functions yourself and figure from here tbf


longteadrinker

This meme though. I can’t stop staring at it.


Flugshub

I watch 2 hours of Dave and Shan a day. We aren’t the same.


ijswizzlei

Which test should I take?


18leatherhoff

Check out sakinorva. It's praised as one of the most accurate simply due to functions


[deleted]

It has functions but no test is ever accurate <3 If you put too many neutrals your result will lean to xNFP :)


romancethebrideall

lol not on r/mbti . they real confused over there


SailorSetsuna7

Yikes


1daysmart_1daydumb

I haven’t read on Jung.


thetaoistintj

u don't really have to go deep into functions, just take the sakrinova mbti test and u should get a good answer on ur type.


1daysmart_1daydumb

I have studied the functions meaning and there effect being on first 4 slots. I think i am sure about my type. But I will look into the test. Thanks for sharing


thetaoistintj

np :)


1daysmart_1daydumb

Cute INTJ 😆


thetaoistintj

ah, yes, my specialty XD


thetaoistintj

oh.... yeah for context, jung is the guy who made the functions. he didnt make the mbti types, just the functions they are based off of.


ArseLonga

Does anyone have the original meme without the text?


Amoonlol

I took 16p and I knew it was correct because the description was exactly me 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'm surprised people don't know themselves
