ESTPs ranked high for self-acceptance according to the CPI™ tool. This doesn't really come as a surprise, since ESTPs are known for being confident, self-assured, and assertive. They tend to believe in themselves and spend very little time “wallowing” or looking down on themselves when they make a mistake.
"ENTJs are highly confident and have excellent leadership skills as their dominant extroverted thinking traits make them effectiveness oriented," she says. "This personality type is also the most obviously confident of all the personality types since they are natural solution offerers who are automatically decisive."
As an INTP, I believe that this MBTI personality type is amongst the most prone to having a lack of confidence & self-esteem, especially in youth when lower functions aren't fully developed.
ESTP. ESTPs are the most confident of all the personality types. They are often referred to as “doers” because they take action without hesitation and have a natural aptitude for getting things done quickly and efficiently.
ESFJ: insecure
Most see ESFJs as social butterflies and the life of the party. While they do love to be around people, they also want to feel accepted. Even though they're typically gregarious and assertive, their lesser-known personal qualities include being perceptive and deeply insecure.
Thanks to their blunt and serious mannerisms, INTJs are also one of the personality types most likely to be branded intimidating. Unlike charismatic ENTJs, INTJs tend to be reserved and distant.
Avoidant Personality Disorder Symptoms and Signs
Some symptoms of avoidant personality disorder to look out for are: Very low self-esteem and low feelings of self-worth. A tendency to hide, either in baggy, nondescript clothing or by staying in the background in social situations.
ISTP personality types are calm, efficient and productive, and are open to new opportunities. This introduction to the ISTP personality type, based on the Myers-Briggs® Step I personality assessment, can help ISTPs to understand how they interact with others, and what careers they might enjoy.
ESFJ. Those who are extroverted, sensing, feeling, and judging are often identified as one of the kindest types by experts. "ESFJs have extroverted feeling as a dominant cognitive function," Gonzalez-Berrios says. "This makes them rule by their hearts.
The ISFP – Being Their Own Worst Critic
ISFPs may seem easy-going at first glance, but these types actually hold themselves to very specific standards.
Of all the personality types, ENTJs are arguably the ones who care least about other people's opinions of them.
INFJ is regarded as the most sensitive personality type. Some estimates suggest that 80 to 90% of people who test as INFJs also test as highly sensitive people, because the traits of the two overlap so much.
"While the INTJ personality type is known for being highly intelligent, they also score high on trustworthiness, probably because they are self-aware enough to recognize the importance of trust in human relationships," Parmar explains.
INFJs are sensitive souls who are easily overwhelmed, but they have their limits. If they feel stressed by their environment, or the people in it, they'll tend to cry or become very quiet and want to be alone. Some INFJs will be cold, sarcastic and very blunt or speak to someone only on a very superficial level.
INTP. INTPs need to relax solo, or they can't relax at all. One of the most introverted personality types throughout the Myers-Briggs system, their social life is fulfilling for short bursts, but ultimately drains them—at work, or with friends.
The least common Myers-Briggs personality Type is INFJ
People who prefer INFJ make up only 1.5% of the general population in the US.
Of all of the introvert personality types on the MBTI, the INTP tends to be the most introverted. They tend to be thoughtful, quiet, and very reserved around others.
Studies have shown that self-esteem reaches a peak in one's 50s or 60s, and then sharply drops in old age (4–7). This is a characteristic change, so it is important to reveal about when self-esteem peaks across the life span.
People with avoidant personality disorder avoid social situations due to fear of rejection and being judged by others. However, because most people with this condition want to develop relations, they may be more likely to respond to the work of psychotherapy.
INTP: Pushes Anger Away
“The Architect” type, INTP, will avoid talking to others when they're angry. These personality types will suppress their emotions. Because INTPs aren't great at handling their feelings or the emotions of others, it's easier for them to forget about it, push it away, and move on.
"ESFJs are social creatures with a lot of love for routine. They tend to be sensitive and feel most awkward when they think they are the butt of someone's joke or are not having their feelings in a friendship or relationship reciprocated," says Owens.
If an ISFJ feels that their partner is not showing them enough appreciation and support, bitterness tends to arise. These types have a desire for social validation, after all, and they can quickly become needy and jealous if they feel like they are not being affirmed.
