'Depression. Loss of appetite. Lethargy. Inability of getting out of bed unless I've had 12+ hours of sleep. Loss of interest in anything. Irritability. Sensitivity.|||http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2JyZawwRO4|||That's the word - intense. And I definitely identify with the up and down and left and right and everywhere else. :laughing: I might seem aloof at first but I guess I can be intense and that throws...|||Intelligent, reasonable, rational, kind, intuitive, caring, genuine, honest, sincere, interesting, different, open-minded, ambitious, independent, and maybe a bit strange.|||The INFJs I've known, as much as I admire them, were often incorrect. But I've noticed that they seemed to enjoy order and regulations but still had a quirky, interesting side to them. INTPs, I find,...|||I was thinking intuition before I read your post. :laughing:  It's maddening, isn't it? When you see things but others don't. Or when you know there's something to your gut feeling but you don't...|||Anxious, guilt, worry.|||Creepy how accurate this is.    This is something I haven't consciously recognized but it's entirely true. Thanks for the insight. :proud:|||I find that those who lack common sense tend to be intuitive or perceptive in other ways, seeing things that most often miss. So I think that it balances out.|||Not at all.|||I can't remember any dream I've had in the past few months. :sad:  Not sure if that's a good thing (nightmares or boring dreams are unpleasant) or if I'm missing out on awesome dreams.|||There's only one INFJ I'm familiar with and this seems very accurate to me.|||*dies a huggy death*|||One of my family members is an INTP and he's one of the few I'm closest with. We get along better than we do with just about any of our family members as we are very similar in many ways. I think I'm...|||:laughing: You sound like a very interesting individual.   If I was in a relationship, I think I'd be equally inclined towards doing similar things but not exactly that. lol You could easily...|||Bittersweet, selfish indulgence.|||I'm the same way. Experience and an earnestness in adapting will help you in reducing the negative effects of those traits.   Instead of focussing on your flaws, it's important to look at what...|||The very thought of having my personal space violated in that manner by a complete stranger is terrifying to me. :shocked:|||I always feel like I'm slouching but others compliment me on my good posture. But put me in front of a computer and I'll probably be slouching.|||I dislike the first song but I adore Sigur Ros and found the third song interesting.  I listen to music from various genres but, interestingly enough, I do think that there is a sort of dreamy or...|||The family members I am closest with and who understand me best are ISTx and xNTP.  And I have a few close friends but the one who understands me best is ESFP.|||ESFxs. I think that most of my closest friends were usually this type.|||I don't think it's an INFP trait but I do understand. If an assignment, essay, or other work was not perfect in my eyes, I really struggled just handing it in.|||Infj.|||Sipping warm tea. A cold drink on hot day. The warmth of the sun on my skin. Feeling cozy in oversized sweaters. Reading a good book in a warm bed. The feel and taste of buttery popcorn while...|||Indifferent.|||Usually, I don't really like discussing topics like these but the posts here are so relatable.   I find myself turning down anyone who asks me out or shows interest in me, even if we get along well...|||Trees.|||1) Have any of you heard of her already, do you like her stuff? No, but thank you for the link. It was enjoyable to listen to. No Man Alive is especially good, it's wonderfully haunting.  2) When...|||I've noticed that as well. What others see in my silence depends on the individual. Some think that I'm simply being snobby or stand-offish, some think that I'm just rude (maybe it's my resting face...|||Sometimes - not always - I feel as though I can see through others. I don't think it's just their superficiality that I see through, it's as if I can see some part of their inner self or feelings...|||@Eggsies Thank you for taking the time to respond.   That's an interesting perspective - that we shouldn't hold others' imperfections against them. Admittedly, I do have issues dwelling over...|||I just jump into it without thinking. I think INFPs have a tendency to overthink, so once you just disregard planning ahead, it becomes much easier. I have the opposite problem though - I can only...|||And here I came into the thread thinking that I've never experienced this until I read your post. :laughing: Turns out, this is my experience almost always. I think it's natural in dreams so I never...|||I guess this is sort of a rant but I'd love to read your own thoughts and experiences regarding this.  Lately, I have been evaluating my behaviours and life and have concluded that I need to step...|||I think it depends on their perspective on introversion.  For some reason, it appears as though extroverts are more bothered by introversion than introverts seem to be bothered by extroversion....|||1.   63707   2.  63708  3.  63709|||It seems as though this might be true for most people.|||I'm the same. As a child and adolescent, I would lay awake for nights in a row with my stomach knotting and turning out of guilt, even if the person said it didn't bother them. Their face and my...|||I do believe that there is meaning to my existence, to everything that exists. I don't think that the beautiful designs of all that exists just randomly occurred with no purpose.   I go on because...|||Try comparing your resume with the people you know who've gotten hired. Try to follow their style and take note of the differences. Rather than just applying to entry-level jobs, apply to as many...|||Damian Marley. Gotye. Dave Grohl. Japanese artists (many of them). ASAP Rocky. Kid Cudi (definitely an introvert). Maybe Kendrick Lamar. Pharrell Williams. The Weeknd (even though the message is...|||I would like for there to exist true justice, true peace. Today, there are so many injustices and hardships people face because of the intent of the very few, most powerful people in the world to...|||I live in Canada. Although we may not be as characteristically charismatic as Americans seem to be, Canadians are still very similar in that extroversion is valued and introversion is seen as a bad...|||I often ask others what's important to you? but I never thought about motivation. Hm, I'd say that wanting to accomplish my goals because of what is important to me keeps me going, so I guess you...|||I know exactly what you mean. At times, the world, the precious moments in life, even the most regular things can fill me with an inexplicable amount of joy in my heart. Sometimes, thinking about the...|||31.  I feel like I cheated though. I've recently read up on body language in an effort to improve my social skills. I seem to be able to read people well, I think, but I don't understand how...|||I thought that introversion was not as looked down upon in Japan, so INFPs would have an easier time being their true selves? What is it really like for an INFP in Japan?|||That map isn't very reliable. I know INFPs who live outside of Europe/Americas and there isn't a single dot to signify their existence. Besides, whatever research this map is based on clearly is not...|||Interesting topic. I struggle with this as well. Moondog is onto something, I think. The key may be smiling, having a sunny disposition, and most importantly small talk. I smile alright but not...'
