In this episode, I describe which personality type is most susceptible to each temperament, and why. I also explain why the borderline personality disorder is the most dangerous to each type of personality type, and how to deal with it.
00:00:00.000Some time back, after I finished the psychology series, Asymmetrical Warfare pointed out that I've made a mistake in it.
00:00:09.000In the series, I said that the borderline was the most dangerous sort of personality, Schedule II personality disorder that you'll run into.
00:00:16.000But more accurate would be to say it's the most dangerous for me, because I'm a choleric.
00:00:23.000And so he pondered, and I've had other people ask this in the other videos, if there might be certain types of, certain humours are most predisposed to being exploited by particular personality disorders.
00:00:39.000And you know what? I think that is the case.
00:00:42.000And the interesting thing, as I said, I've been thinking about it, and what you find is actually the shape of the Manan rune,
00:00:49.000of the directions where people are most susceptible.
00:00:53.000So, my goal with this video is to describe which personality disorder is most dangerous to each temperament, and also explain why.
00:01:05.000So, we might as well move in a clockwise motion, starting with the melancholic.
00:01:12.000So, the melancholic, as I'm sure you recall, is the introvert that likes new situations.
00:01:18.000They're the person that loves showing up at the party, it's Michelangelo.
00:01:22.000And so, the guiding goal in the melancholic's life is to find somebody that will start a party, start a movement that they can join.
00:01:34.000And so, for the most dangerous personality disorder, in this case, the narcissist.
00:01:44.000This is what it boils down to. The narcissist likes to form cults of personality.
00:01:50.000The melancholic likes to be part of a team. They want a personality that they can be loyal to.
00:01:57.000And so, when you get a narcissist, creating this fake movement, this fake belief system, other people will eventually realize that the narcissist is being a fake.
00:02:10.000That they have no real plan, they have no real movement.
00:02:13.000The melancholic will never realize that. They will follow the narcissist off the cliff.
00:02:20.000Then, you have the sanguine. Sanguine, of course, being Raphael, is they're an extrovert that likes new situations.
00:02:33.000They don't tend to deeply analyze the things around them. They're not a mechanical type of thinker.
00:02:42.000And because they don't analyze things so deeply, for the sanguine, it is the histrionic that is the most dangerous.
00:02:52.000What the histrionic does, remember, is the histrionic needs a constant source of drama.
00:02:59.000They need their environment to surround them with a maelstrom of passion.
00:03:06.000And so, they start arguments between other people. They instigate problems.
00:03:12.000And so, for a sanguine, they don't tend to really analyze people that deeply.
00:03:18.000Raphael's interested in doing what he's going to do.
00:03:22.000He's not going to analyze what the other Ninja Turtles' motivations are.
00:03:27.000He's not that interested in why they're doing things.
00:03:31.000And so, if he sees arguments around him, he'll try and settle them, but he's not really going to dig deep into it.
00:03:39.000And so, the histrionic, starting these constant, unending, ceaseless arguments around him, he never notices.
00:03:50.000The other personality types, eventually, they'll get sick of it. They might not quite realize what she's doing.
00:03:55.000But they'll say, it's like, you start an argument wherever you go.
00:03:59.000No, I don't. It's other people arguing. No, you're starting the argument.
00:04:03.000Sanguine won't realize that. Sanguine, you need to point out to the sanguine that they're hanging out with a histrionic person.
00:04:10.000Because, left to their own devices, they'll just see an isolated argument.
00:04:15.000They're not prone to mechanical, analytical thinking in that manner.
00:04:24.000Now, the choleric, as I said, what really drives the choleric is, essentially, we're driven to shove our noses into other people's business.
00:04:35.000When we see a problem, we want to fix it.
00:04:39.000Leonardo, the leader personality type.
00:04:42.000What's going on here? What's the malfunction? How can I help?
00:04:46.000You know, if one of our friends is feeling down, we want to go take them out and say, hey, what's wrong?
00:04:51.000Okay, you need to get laid. We're going to take you to the bar. We're going to get you laid.
00:04:54.000We're constantly driven to analyze people and talk to people and fix problems.
00:05:01.000Which can be really irritating, by the way, if you don't want your problem fixed.
00:05:07.000So the choleric, the reason they're so susceptible to the borderline is because the borderline is essentially an unending problem.
00:05:16.000It's a riddle that can never be fixed. There's always another layer to the riddle.
00:05:21.000The borderline is never going to be well.
00:05:24.000And so the choleric can just fall into a pit trying to help this person.
00:05:29.000Which is why, as a choleric, a borderline almost destroyed me.
00:05:35.000And finally, you've got the phlegmatic.
