INFP

I am an INFP. And I know how much confused feelings I have. Sharing the same with all of you. If we can help each other.

What is like to reach maturity

INFPs are naturally caring people, with intense imaginations. When the INFP has grown and matured they develop a more forgiving attitude towards people who do not share their moral code. INFPs have very strong internal values, which can make it difficult for them to be around people who do not share those views. When the INFP develops their weaker functions they learn to understand that it is perfectly acceptable for people to disagree with them, and that it does not make them a bad person. The matured INFP has spent time under the weight of their own emotions, and has learned not to let it crush them.

How stress mess us up

What stresses out an INFP: – Rigidity in rules and timelines – Having values violated – Not getting enough time alone. – Too many demands on their time – Small-talk – A lack of authenticity from others – Having their creativity stifled – Having to focus too extensively on sensory/concrete details – Criticism or confrontation – Fear that they might lose someone or something (relationship/task, etc,..)

When under stress, an INFP gets lost in internal turmoil. They feel caught between pleasing others and maintaining their own integrity and taking care of their well-being. Their natural tendency to identify with others, compounded with their self-sacrificial tendencies,  leaves them confused about who they really are. They feel lost and perplexed during stressful times; and as stress builds they can fall into the grip of their inferior function, extraverted thinking. When this happens, they will do things that are typically out of character. They may become obsessed with fixing perceived problems, and righting wrongs. They may blurt out hostile thoughts or engage in destructive fantasies directed at just about anyone available. They also may have biting sarcasm and cynicism. They may become aggressively critical to others and themselves, dwelling on all the “facts” necessary to support their overwhelming sense of failure.

How to help an INFP experiencing stress:

– Give them space and time alone to sort out their feelings. – Validate their feelings. – Remind them of their strengths. – Don’t give them advice. This will only make them feel worse. – Let them “get away” from it all. – Exercise can help. However, with these types, it’s best not to suggest it when they are stressed, but after, as a solution. – Forgive them if they’ve been overly critical while stressed. – Let them work on a project they’ve been interested in, but maybe have been too busy to spend time on.

People are attempting suicide , because they are losing hope.

I request everyone to talk your feelings. Don't hide it. If you're angry you can gus it out. You will feel better. Family or friend whoever you feel to talk with.

If staying alone call up your friend or family. If not keep writing in journal. And it helps sometime you write your anger out and then burn that page down. Break some utensils. They can be replaced.

Life is precious. It is full of amazing surprises. Live it to the best. It is just a phase. It will go away in a day or two. Think twice or more but don't do anything you may regret.

[introvertintuitionfeelperception]

INFPs are definitely romantics at heart, and are constantly hoping to find their true love. They might not always openly share these desires with others, but deep down INFPs want to find someone to share their lives with. They want love to feel passionate and beautiful, and are not just looking for short term connections. INFPs want a relationship with someone who makes them feel at home, and at the same time shares similar passions and ideals. INFPs truly enjoy the idea of love, and want to be able to share the deepest, darkest parts of themselves with another human being.

Loveable thing about us

The fierceness they apply to their convictions. the way they live and die by their beliefs. Their ability to weave the chaos and the suffering of humanity into an intricate tapestry of understanding. The shame they alleviate through sharing their own.

When we Burn Out

If an INFP is forced to socialize for long periods of time, they will quickly burn out. INFPs also become overwhelmed if they forced to comply with authority figures, or the expectations of those around them. Being forced to behave like everyone else, can become extremely exhausting for an INFP. They need space to be themselves, without feeling an intense amount of pressure from others. In some cases an INFP can be in work situations where they need to comply with the demands of their boss, and even be in social settings often. This will quickly cause the INFP to feel overwhelmed, and like they are about to crack.

The INFP who is burnt out, is extremely on edge, and might find themselves snapping at people. They normally are good at keeping their composure and their emotions in check, but not during this time. The INFP will become short tempered and might even provoke fights. If they are incapable of removing themselves from the difficult situations, the INFP needs to make time for themselves when they can. Revert to things that comfort them and ease their minds- this is necessary in order to men their souls. If it is possible, a small vacation might be in order.

Speak from your heart

Me: I know everyone is in self-isolation for the recent status of the world. Please feel free to talk with me. If you kept quiet, you will drag yourself to depression. Which I don't think you want at all. Communicating is important. If you feel to talk with you're friend, just video call and talk with the person.

Values and Motivations

INFPs value authenticity and want to be original and individual in what they do. They are often concerned with a search for meaning and truth within themselves. Following tradition holds little appeal for the INFP; they prefer to do their own exploration of values and ideas, and decide for themselves what seems right. INFPs are often offbeat and unconventional, but they feel no desire to conform. The INFP would rather be true to themselves than try to fit in with the crowd.

INFPs are accepting and nonjudgmental in their treatment of others, believing that each person must follow their own path. They are flexible and accommodating, and can often see many points of view. It is important to the INFP to support other people; however, the INFP may react strongly if they feel their own values are being violated. They especially hate being steamrolled by people who insist there is one right way to do things. INFPs want an open, supportive exchange of ideas.
