Whenever I'm forced to do something important really fast, I descend to this "dark mode".
I get really calm, focused and cold (even for INTP standards) but I get things done. Things that my normal self would consider impossible/too much effort such as sweet-talking higher ups to get my way and pulling strings on people of my level.
I learn new skills on the fly (even temporary Charisma!) and implement it to the task at hand.
I'm so intense that it even scares my (probably) ESTJ boss even though he indirectly induce it most of the time (my lack of foresight on some of my responsibilities is a major factor).
Problem is that I get drained after a few hours of such stress and it also harms my health since I ignore things such as fevers so I could finish what needs to be done. I could only imagine what it does to my human relationships.
It's one of the reasons why I decided to leave my job and start a more flexible business.
My questions are:
1. What is this "dark mode"? Is this a natural INTP defense mechanism?
2. Can you harness it for the betterment of yourself and others? (Kinda like playing a good necromancer or something)
