ENFJ Shadow: The Dark Side of ENFJ

Because the #shadow is typically not recognized or accepted as part of the ego identity, it's manifestation often goes overlooked or compartmentalized. Jungian psychologist John Beebe later conceptualized the shadow as archetypal roles embodied by the cognitive functions not included in each #MBTI type. In the case of #ENFJ, these functions are Fi, Ne, Si and Te and form a kind of negative version of the INFP. Here is a look at how the ENFJ Shadow functions play out.

As ENFJ, i can be nice and evil at the same time. Its about how u treat me

[Catinkontti]

ENFJ here. Recently I helped one colleague, who I found that they had some problems dealing with workload. They got really pissed me all the sudden, maybe they found me too smartass or something - I tried to calm myself and turn another cheek but then I realized that they had crossed the actual line calling me by names and so, thus I totally closed my feelings, began to act like a Maleficent on a snap and made it pretty clear that I am not a person to person to be threated like that - I helped them however when they needed it, but I think that they learned their lesson at the same time not to give me bad time for I have that plenty already and I just want to have the best time the person can have in this unfair world.

Poor ENFJs just want to help out their fellow brethren. The slightest bit of opposition drives them crazy. It's interesting how they use the functions of the wimpiest personality type in order to win arguments. If I could embrace this power as an INFP, I could become very powerful.

When an ENFJ s feeling are hurt, they change. Many have a realisation that most people are hypocrites and selfish. At that time, they may become loner.
I am an ENFJ and I am least bothered to hear about problems of other people except the very close ones. I am only interested in socialising with people with whom I share common interests and ideology. I hardly remember most people for more than few minutes after meeting them. I can do any harm to anyone whom I dont like and I am ruthless. Socialising for sake of socialising is a big no for me.
The definitions of ENFJ (or any MBTI type) which we find in net describes their behaviour in a world where all people are like them. I am intrested in new things and knowledge excites me more than average people.

Can you explain - how the ENFJ' can overcome these sides and convert them into strengths. That will help

[purfektliflawed]

As an ENFJ- I legit have to be balanced lol. If not I just

SCREW IT!
*lashes out into Manipulations*

[brandong]

Great content but I couldn't finish it because the BGM music is too loud. Please turn down the drums or use an EQ.

MY ENFJ HOMIESS, WHO WANTS TO MAKE A DISCORDD? 😂

[Sunshine-ew]

So, music is too loud. It took me few times to listen it with focus cuz it's too distracting 🤣

[qbik]

Every persona has a dark side, so lets not crucify too much these who keep this society together. Its a balance of nature! If you come to me with all your problems to cheer you up, to teach you, to be willing to do alot for YOUR happiness, and then you turn on me for one reason or another, you damn well right Ill use your shit against you, but later on you'll have no one to come cry to. So good luck and have a nice life, while I move on to someone who actually appreciate me and what I do.

[chatterroom]

the low number of views explains how only 2% are ENFJ why not make a discord server and chat on it i bet its gonna be pretty intersting

[人間-ju]

The music was so distracting i couldn’t complete the vid..

[alltimetops]

It you respect me i will respect you even more. If you wrong me, ama get my pay back

[gearhartful]

Feels like 2 different videos are playing.

[Maha-puqk]

Intresting subject. The music is too loud i couldnt hear proprely.

[koolkat]

They can mess with me but they can't mess with my loved ones (btw this feels like a creepy pasta about myself)

[maiki]

I'm an ENFJ, and I approve this message.

[justanotherone]

i know a dark enfj. not dark, just too unhealthy. i just hope i don't mett monsters like enfjs. God there are more than a handful of these perosnality types who are unhealthy. its become clear to me that God can make monsters like these too.

[XxBrittanyxX]

Being a ENFJ-T myself, def true.
However i dont do anything much to those who i dont like who are mean to ppl. Instead i play passive agressive and play off their mind to make em frustrated by acting nice and acting stupid. Gets toxic ppl riled cause u are not giving in to their mind games. So u throw it back their way in a kind manner. They destroy themselves and bring forth evidence you then bring up at the last point to others once they have burnt there own bridges. Patience is key to alot of things. And yes, when we see injustice, we can be ruthless and analytical to how we bring down those who hurt others. But without actually hurting them physically.

The music is so distracting that it actually ruins the video.
