I dont know how much this has been covered in the past, but I was wondering if anyone felt like brainstorming about Betas and Personality Disorders. Is it believed in Socionics that there can be such a correlation of p type and being prone to specific disorders do you think? INFPs are called dramatic sometimes so they could be prone to being histrionic or narcissistic or even bipolar (the drama could be the upswing to avoid the depressive state). seems like ESTPs can be narcissistic and maybe sometimes anti-social. Others have talked about feeling intense as a Beta which makes me think of Borderline Personality Disorder where relationships are marked by intensity, but also where behavior can be out of control.
Even just depression in the quadrant or other psychological issues that can play into our make-up like attention deficit etc.
I'm wondering if it might be beneficial for quadrant members to brainstorm about this, because then instead of just totally attributing our behavior to quadrant stuff we can link it with psychological information and find ways to facilitate healing or raise our awareness.
Much love,
