Does dysfunction mask type?

My question is - how accurate is e-typing when the personality is dysfunctional? Does one become more purely 'who' they are when dysfunctional, or less so? Is it relevant?

As an example, I type out as a 4w5, however I wonder if this is because I've got some serious, ahem, issues that I am delving into. This delving, by definition, causes one look at themselves with extreme criticality, a 4-ish trait.
