I Am An Infj Stories of Experiences

Not sure where to begin with this, after reading a rough summary of the personality type, you should have a pretty picture of INFJ in your head - how we can see into souls, find all the solutions in life and would probably hug you to...

It's 8 am and all is well here. I'm having my morning coffee before heading off to work, staring at those four little letters and finding the peace it brings me.

Which is silly. Infj. Four little letters.

I've often wondered if it's...

Reality sucks. I have the ability to see through all the bullshit, and offer solutions to how we can make reality better for the whole. Yet, the majority doesn't care to listen to my ideas. Be it brainwashing, peer pressure, need for...

I always give my wife my work to proof because I know what infj sees as normal might be ill or misperceived by the rest of the mbti population.

Do you do the same thing?

I have known I was an INFJ since high school, so about 15 years now. Only recently realized what it actually means in terms of how I relate to others. To put it simply, I have always felt like I did not quite fit in. Initially I was...

I met some other infjs and I thought they were going to be just like me. Instead, although we have similar functions which gives us common ground, I found myself still to be so different from them. If there is something as a hardcore...

It's a pleasure to join this online group.

At 45 I've known I'm an INFJ for about 10 years. I took 2 online tests with the same result, then the personality designation was confirmed by a psychotherapist. Knowing helps but there...

I was told by my marriage counselor, a retired psychiatrist that I was INFJ. He kinda kept me at arms length after he got the tests back. He flat out told me I was intuitive. Said I see things others don't and don't understand why they...

I don't know if any of you can relate to this, but my entire life I felt like I was too complex to love. Without getting into details, my childhood wasn't much fun. My mom's a co-dependent drunk and my father (if you can call it that...

Its does not bring me down, or make me sad, its just the truth.

No matter how close my friends or family may be, how much I love them & how much I share with them, they still do not seem to know who I am.

& honestly, I do not really...

I take pride in being an INFJ. I am also an enneagram type 4w5, which makes me even more rarer! If any of you would like to explore yourself more, I advise you to look into enneagram types. It will open your eyes to a whole new world...

I just joined this group and I must say, I am enjoying reading all of the stories people post who are also INFJ's as well. I took the Carl Jung and Briggs test a while back and have taken it just now, because it has been a while and am...

It's automatic. I hardly even notice it. When I meet people, I feel like I dive into the deepest parts of their being. I see where they are hurting, and what they are needing. And I try to give it to them. I want to make them feel good...

Have you noticed that even though INFJ is the rarest type in the world, yet we make the largest MBTI group for "I Am An _ _ _ _" online here! The second largest group may be INFP. Whereas the Extroverted groups have close to no members...

Is there any INFJs that have persisted for a longer period of time in their life (if you know what I mean) that could tell us if your characteristics have stayed the same, how have you coped with all the sensitivity and challenges in...

Considering the common traits that INFJs have, and being able to relate to a lot of your stories, what careers should INFJs go into that could give them a fulfilling job for the rest of their lives? Or what are some desirable...

Are there any INFJ that are very ticklelish too, or not? I don't know if this is a common thing, because of INFJ's higher sensitivity or maybe it's not.

Warning: self rant, I apologize in advance if this too-long article bored you. I just needed to get it out of my system, and now I feel better.

Wow life sucks all over again when there's nothing to do or when I don’t get properly...

I recently took on a job for a friend that I had previously worked for before but had quit to take on other interests, but the reality is that I had quit because I knew I wasn’t suited for the job as an INFJ. After three years of...

I realized a few years ago than I'm an INFJ personality type. I guess it wasn't much of a surprise realizing the fact that I had been quite intuitive and and even bordering on psychic since I was a child. I seemed to know a lot more and...
