ENFJ vs ESFJ? ૮₍ ´ ꒳ `₎ა

Hello everybody!!!

I've been trying to figure out whether I'm an ENFJ or an ESFJ and I'd really appreciate some outside opinions. I've taken a lot of cognitive function tests over the past few months but they tend to give me different results so i thought I'd ask people who know the functions better so here i am!!

I'm attaching my latest test result from today here!!

A bit about me: I'm very people-oriented and i naturally pay attention to other people's emotions! I care a lot about helping the people around me grow and i often end up being the person others come to for emotional support or advice. At the same time I've been working in therapy on not losing myself in other people or feeling responsible for fixing and saving everyone.

I spend a lot of time reflecting on myself and trying to understand why i think and feel the way I do. Psychology and typology are huge interests of mine. I also make moodboards that are usually built around symbolism and themes rather than just aesthetics. I enjoy finding deeper meaning in things whether it's music, books, shows or my own experiences. I can be pretty imaginative and enjoy exploring different possibilities but i also like eventually narrowing things down into an explanation that makes the most sense to me instead of leaving everything open forever.

Socially, I'm quite anxious around new people at first but once I'm comfortable i become much muchh more open and expressive! I care a lot about being liked and accepted and rejection affects me more than I'd like to admit honestly. I've also noticed that i sometimes compare myself to other people and wonder whether I'm "doing enough" in life.

One thing that consistently scores low on tests is Se. I often get stuck in my head, overthink things and can hesitate before acting.

Based on this description and my test result am i ENFJ or ESFJ? Thank you for reading this big wall of text and i hope you have a good day!!!
