How to encourage a depressed SEI?

[marooned]

Not necessarily. No not at all. Introverted sensing doesn't lead people to live so called healthy lives. For instance, most of the smokers I know are introverted sensor types. Many over eaters are Si types as well. Si is about cognition of states of physical being, with an emphasis on comfort. Comfort does not equal health. I find that lots of SEI talk about being healthy habits, but the default position reins supreme. No offence guys.

so now is about leading an unhealthy life instead? (i mean if is about "comfort," certain things like over-eating might be um, "uncomfortable.")

i just don't really think being healthy is type-related... although people's reasons/causes for their healthiness or unhealthiness may very well be.

Cognitive functions are so loosely defined that they can mean anything you want. I've seen Si defined as anything from having a preoccupation with living a healthy life style to preferring one's own comfort at the expense of one's health, which would be ignoring your health entirely The latter is often used as justification for being another type with non-dominant Si.

well actually, many (most?) unhealthy behaviors do in fact make the body feel crappy.

Anyone heard of chubby SEI?
Alpha Si is +Si and pretty hedonistic.

Well, to be honest I need someone to make me see a doctor. It is anxiety producing event itself. Somebody there take care of me, please. I'm even bit short sighted when it comes to this. I don't want to experience more pain.
