'Me too... but sometimes it works. But I keep forgetting it D). No, seriously: it only works when I do it purposefully, because when I start rambling it's mostly too late to stop it.
And that's even more recognisable. I can't handle too much people on one day. Even if I keep it superficial. It's exhausting. But you can practise it. Once somebody told me in the middle of an...
Ha ha, D). That's so recognisable!
And I did today, and she understood and it helped :))

Try this one: how about trying to like yourself? It works for me (at least sometimes;)
Yeah I think my boss is willing to allocate me to a more suitable role, but only to a certain degree I think. It's time to talk about it with her.
Just keep on rambling please, it really comforts me. I recognise a lot, for example about being buried in details and can't handle it. My boss said to me You have to do more with less. Right now I'm...
Don't know if there's any comfort in this, but I so totally understand by being frozen inside. I feel the same at the moment and I think your right about the dealing with the emotional stress. It's a...
The weird thing is that when I let go I become highly uninterested and not caring about anything anymore..
I really envy you. I feel totally disconnected but it's not okay. Definively not. I play my part and nobody knows how miserable I am.
Today an 8, tomorrow 5. Depends on my mood and degree of anxiety...
Well, I certainly do not. But I tend to lean toward ENFP... And as someone else said: we can be quite lonely. The giving thing can be quite exhausting btw, esp. when there is little returning back....
:crazy:
Today I felt totally frustrated. Instead of doing the nice part of my job (connecting with people, inspire eachother and giving) I had to work at home whole day filling out excellsheets, doing...
Close your eyes: I give you a soft pillow to lay your head on that takes all the noises away. Let it all go :). Your beautiful avatar shows so much colour, you have so much to give, it's only...
OK. Well put! And I agree.
??
Intriguing, bit a bit scary ;). Does make me curious though.
The stupid thing is that you kind of expect a reward the next day, but today started again with anxiety :(. Guess it's all part of the process... btw: I'm curious about the meaning your avatar.
Thank you so much :)). You're absolutly right about the mental gain. And that it doesn't take long. You just don't realize is when you're in the middle of an anxiety attack. Today I totally flipped;...
Question: I agree that I have to take it at a pace I can handle (small steps), but what's a small step? I always seems (without intention!) take steps to for too big (talking about it too much,...
I wasnt totally sure yet if I am an ENFJ but now I read this I must be! It's certainly harder to figure out what I want then figure out what other people want. You have to love yourself first though,...
Hi again, I recognize a lot. As a matter of fact: everything. The fear itself (for me: that I will be this way for the rest of my life and if that's so, I don't want to live) is the worst part. And...
You certainly have a point in that the anticipation of trying triggered the panic attack(s)! Thank you for that insight. And also thanks for your remarks about that basically all techniques are the...
Hi Happy about nothing, I try not to fight; that's the whole point of this strategy, not fight, flight or freeze but accept! Accept is one of the most difficult things for me to do because it makes...
Today was a shitty day because I tried the AWARE (see: Overcoming Panic Attacks: A Five Step Response) approach more than 20 times to overcome my anxiety attacks. Yeah, that's the plan: you have to...
Pff, this is heavy. I'm an ENFJ and I certainly recognise emotional explosions like this (and the apologizes aftewards). When I snap, my boyfriend reacts mostly calm and logical and in the beginning...
Agree! Sometimes a emotional outburst can be quite effective. But certainly not all the time ;)
:))) here 's another one 79969
Thanks, this means a lot to me :). I give so much to other people, and experience so little giving from other people. Is really comforts me! More pictures you can find on my blog Anxiety girl (my...
Thanks. We are together for almost 30 years now, so there must be something good;). No seriously: we do have the same taste in an lot of things like films (and I do like a film once in a while, but...
Well, I'm an manager, mentor and coach at the moment, so maybe this is the right job for me after all. I like to help people found out what there best at and stimulate them to do that :)
Thanks. I never find answers rubbish because I always appreciate people for trying. The case is that I only have a few friends and they were all on vacation. I have a job and he doesn't so he is used...
I'm curious: what kind of job fits an ENFJ?
I totally understand. Don't understand me wrong, I have a relationship, but the need to chat privately I do have too. The forum is mostly too overwhelming for me. And as I understand correctly:...
I recognise all of it. Mostly I feel/am different from a lot of people around me and this forum really comforts me. An issue I'm working on is to speak out loud (say what I have to say) in groups...
sorry, double post. See other post with Quote.
I'm somewhere in the middle but I think my anxiety overshadows my E. I'm still not used to being different, for example at work. I need a save environment to speak out loud. I'm curious if you...
Hi, My boyfriend is INTJ and stays 99% of his time indoors, not needing other people. After almost two weeks of vacation I went beserk. I always have to go out alone, my few friends are not available...
I recognise that! At work I had an emotional outburst and some people became very quiet (it's not common to react so strongly). Afterwards 3 of them came to me say I was so right in every aspect en 2...
Thanks. I'm also a little bit introvert, but I think that's because of my anxiety. My boyfriend feels very underappreciated, but he (INTJ!) just isn't enough for me now. I don't like to be so...

Today was my 6th day without much (real) contact with other people it really depresses me. It makes me feel lonely and I think that is because there's nobody to give to. I can easily like and give to...
I recognise being indirect. It's almost imposible for me to say directly what I want or need. Simply because I don't know exactly. I'm a giver not a taker ;), can't that be the explanation? When we...
Be glad that people see how you feel. I can feel shit and (except my partner because he knows me very well) and nobody notice. I consider it as a burden that nobody sees anything so they think I'm...
To add to this: sometimes I have serious arguing with my partner because I have compassion for everybody, even when that person has hurt another person badly..
Yes that makes sense. When I translate this to my work: I always do things on time, but nobody knows how much stress it causes to do so.
I recognise almost all of it! And about never been angry: I wish I could sometimes; you can give too much! The only part I'm not certain about is that when I'm not communicating with people that I...'
