    Dr. Holness explains the MBTI as a tool for understanding personality preferences, based on Carl Jung’s theories. While popular, its scientific validity is debated. The MBTI categorizes individuals into 16 types, offering insights into personal strengths. However, it may oversimplify personality and lacks strong predictability. Dr. Holness advises using it as a flexible guide rather than a fixed blueprint.

    Dr. Holness explains that while the body doesn't "reject" toxic relationships, chronic stress can manifest physically. Symptoms like fatigue, digestive issues, and skin changes may arise. If symptoms improve after reducing stress, a psychosomatic link is likely. For relationship-induced anxiety, assess safety and consider therapy. Prioritizing emotional well-being is crucial for health.
