Blend of Temperaments
Notes:
There are blend descriptions all over the Internet. All such blend descriptions are observations from people with many years of experience using the Four Temperaments.
The following are blend descriptions taken from introvert.cc. Such observations are expansive, but not conclusive. Be free to develop your own observations, over time.

1. Sanguine Choleric
The Sanguine Choleric is a study in contrasts. The most extroverted of the extroverts; the Sanguine
Choleric combines a love of social interaction with a goal oriented approach. This blend makes an excellent sales person – they are not afraid of talking with people, but they always remember that they are trying

They mix decisiveness and determination. Because of the critical nature of the Melancholy they may be very difficult to please. If they become negative about someone or something it will have a tendency to stay with them for a long time.
The Melancholy Choleric blend does not make a good leader because both temperament types tend towards criticism and anger. They find it difficult to say kind words or have patience with stragglers. They believe they are right in most cases and therefore leave everyone else “in the wrong”.
A somewhat stereotyped image of a Melancholy Choleric is the brilliant but hated surgeon who has the drive and critical detailed nature to save the hopeless case but alienates and angers everyone they meet in the process.
The Melancholy Choleric needs people around them of Phlegmatic temperament to put up with their critical tongue. A Phlegmatic Choleric may have the drive and straightforwardness to show the Melancholy
Choleric when they are wrong – but that will take patience and determination and a whole lot of “guts”.
This temperament blend needs more than anything to develop and embrace an attitude of

    They are never at ease until they have have checked every detail and made sure that everything has been done and nothing overlooked. It is not that they are overly or irritatingly fussy: their obsession is an expression of anxiety. They have a great capacity for follow-through and attention to detail. They are unlikely to start anything that they cannot finish. They are not assertive members of the team, but they maintain a permanent sense of urgency, which they communicate to others to galvanize them into activity…

    As humans we have had different methods of coping with pain and sorrow. Some find happiness in alcohol, sex, or by partying while others simply find joy in writing, drawing, through cooking, or by singing. Whatever the case maybe, we escape to a place, a place of comfort where no one can hurt us. However, a few rare exceptions may occur where our sanctuary, the place where we may find sacred, ends up causing us the greatest amount of misery. Tita in Like Water For Chocolate by Laura Esquivel and Clara in House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende are the epitome of how their means of refuge has caused them hurt. I am going to demonstrate the irony of Tita’s submission in food, as well as the irony of Clara’s isolation with the spirits.…

    Bauby expresses his sorrow and frustration clearly, in the sentence, “... I am torn between joy at seeing them living, moving, laughing, or crying for a few hours, and fear that the sight of all these sufferings…” (Bauby, 1997, pp. 17) Although conflicted between feeling gratefulness and bitterness, Bauby reveals his fear of never being the father his kids need him to be, or the man his wife needs. It is during these moments where Bauby comes to miss the simple and mundane experiences of life, such as being able to play board games with your son or as he states, being able to complete the simple task of swallowing one’s saliva. “...I would be the happiest of men if I could just swallow the overflow of saliva that endlessly floods my mouth…” (Bauby, 1997, pp. 12) These factors give proof that Bauby has activity barriers in his life that hinder him from doing everyday tasks including smiling, or even eating a meal. In this memoir he mentions, “...A domestic event as commonplace as washing can trigger the most varied emotions, or eating.” (Bauby, 1997, pp. 16) The facts that Jean-Dominique Bauby cannot eat normally, that is without the help of a gastric tube, or breathe naturally without…

    There are some people who want to stay on their bed for a day and just let their frustration and cry like there is no tomorrow, so they can start fresh and feel newer. Also, society makes sure that those people feel worse about themselves and that they should find a cure to become happy when all those medications and those mental hospitals make them feel like the world has just tossed them aside. According to Lucy Farrington-Smith a blogger and a survivor of melancholy states“This was a mass culmination of mini-melancholies that tumbled into an overwhelming wave. It was a wave built up from a careful maintenance of emotions and a constant reigning in.” Which to me means that people are hiding behind their smiles and suppressing their…

    Before the progression of the 19th century people generally believed that practicing medicine was revolved around the belief in the four humors which consisted of black, yellow, blood and pleam. It was believed that if an imbalance of any of these bile’s were to occur, that diseases were sure to stem from them. Practices like bloodletting and exorcisms were performed to combat these imbalances. Although there was no real proof of these four biles or their connections with diseases, doctors continued their search the fact that doctors could do relatively little to treat disease during that time meant that they were not always…

    B, a 90-year-old man who he had been admitted to the hospital due to changes in health status due to an underlying diagnosis of colorectal cancer. When Mr. B was admitted it was noted that he had cognitive impairment. Based on that our assessment would entail providing emotional support and gathering collateral information from the family around the patient’s previously expressed health wishes. According to the health care consent act, the temporary substitute decision maker is Mr. B’s wife. She informed us that Mr. B wanted comfort measures in the last stages of his life. Based on our discussions, a palliative approach would be applied to Mr. B’s care needs. This approach “sees palliative care as less of a discrete service offered to dying persons when treatment is no longer effective and more of an approach to care that can enhance quality of life throughout their illness” (The Way Forward, n.d., p. 8). The social worker also provided counselling around anticipatory grief. An important dimension discussed during regional training was to encourage the patient and families to say what needs to be said, express appreciation and resentment so as not to leave important things…
