Diplomats INFP

Poetic, kind and altruistic people, always eager to help a good cause.

All the ENFP's I know rarely complain about people, but on the rare occasion they do it's massive.

That's understandable. :)

I can definitely understand how INFP's are more likely to develop a mental health issue early on in life. The 'funny' thing about the INFP is that our Introversion is a weird combo with the NFP, it...

Hehe ^_^ Stick it to the man!

xIrony I used to eat nothing but KFC, chicken nuggets and chicken. Steak-ums were also my favorite. My diet consisted of poultry, red meat and fish (tuna, salmon). No seafood or pork really because...

People like to use the word vegan and vegetarian in a very thrown-around kind of way. I've met quite a few people who literally said to my face 'Chicken counts as meat?!' I thought I just couldn't...

^_^ INTP, ENFJ and ENFP are definitely my favourite types.

Seems like you are taking the situation in the most rational and responsible way possible. You shouldn't get down on yourself, something that may help is the knowledge that you will *eventually* be...

Originally from Brighton, southeast coast of England. Love Little Britain, Ab Fab, and another one I think its called My wife & kids. Never heard of mighty boosh.... but they seem funny on youtube.

I have headaches daily, my heartbeat is rapid all the time, and I have high blood pressure. How I eat is perfect according to all my doctors.

]Does it annoy you that INTPs don't seem capable of expressing their emotions outwardly? From my experience, INTPs are very loving people. Even though they don't show it all the time. They are...

We all have our preferences... we each appreciate things differently. And I find it great that you are able to see the beauty within something I cannot.

Try and find an alternative to the benefits of fish? Feeling shameful for what you eat couldn't be healthy. If it's protein... eat something soy, if it is the omega 3 fatty acids you need... eat some...

^_^ Agreed I think that it would be very hard for any NF's to cheat, as well as hard for any NF's to break up with someone or get broken up with. I know that in order to break off my first serious...

NEVER give an ENFP the first hit off a joint/blunt... for they will sit there and talk and puff and talk talk talk and occasionally puff until you remind them! Happens with every ENFP I know! hahaha...

I see what you mean. I desire nothing more than a civil playing-field. I didn't think my assertion was very hostile (not saying you said it was either ha), but I did want to put it out their that...

I think the saddest song I ever heard was: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hW9UHJVMbsY It's about anorexia. Courage by Superchick I used to like emo music (not the screamo bands though) but...

I was talking about what I have actually generally experienced. And to many people, yes, the mere existence of opposition is very distressing. What I have experienced on this forum, however, is...

I am anxious about panic attacks, ironic huh? However, a kitty kat of mine did just do a cute meow, and I am seeing my boyfriend for a few days. So I guess.... I want to be psychologically...

I'm going to be blunt about my beliefs: I believe it is morally wrong to eat meat. I will not shout at you for it, or even bring the conversation up in public... I even try to avoid simple...

Killlll themmmmm

Vegetarian for nearly 10 years... making the transition to strict vegan shortly. I am a very picky-eater, and still manage to get what I like without it costing to much. I also get more protein...

I don't think that counts as emo, more like a middle-ground between classic rock and punk rock. Maybe. Good song though! :wink:

Seems like some pretty powerful disorder... at first not being able to talk in certain situations sounded ike a simple disorder to me... then I realized that those people have to deal with everyday...

Actually cleared things up, although the blue bolded text I meant not cleaning it or scrubbing it for hours, but actually just staring ''through'' it... in one direction, feeling nothing... my body...

Mind sharing what you mean by disassociation? It is fixating oneself on an object and thinking about that one thing or just going thoughtless? It's something that could help me out a bit. And...

How do you usually cope with that? And what are your symptoms? If you don't mind answering them of course :) My psych seems to think the same of me .

I've always felt as though the universe should re-order itself to the point where everything that ever existed is back, and living forever in a paradise here on earth. Obviously we would have to...

Yeah, same here haha.

I feel like I need a drink, but I won't go back to that dark place.

Officially diagnosed - GAD (they summed up my anorexia, OCD, anxiety, depression into GAD), Panic Disorder, PTSD In process - Going through extensive psychiatric sessions and personality disorders...

Hahaha. Sounds like me but it can be like 20 mins and I'm worried. The therapy sounds very interesting and effective - I can understand how sometimes you need a licensed professional to help you cope...

Remember that INFPs can sometimes be mistaken for ENFPs, since we may be introverted but some of us can be quite outgoing ;)

5/5. I was amazed and scared at how accurate the INFP portrait is... specifically the notion that INFPs commonly fantasize about the perfect partner, and tend to live in their heads a lot pondering...

Mostly lows with a few highs, and my psychiatrist(s) do not think I am bi-polar, but I wonder if anyone here has bi-polar, or if it just something INFPs experience, or maybe we are more incline to...

So, in CBT, they would ask you to remember or re-live situations and things that would cause anxiety, and then talk you through it in a calm, directive manner? Please correct me if I am wrong/didn't...

Hmm, what have you tried? People here and I could help make suggestions for you, especially when it is almost impossible to know all the drugs and their effects, especially when everyone reacts...

Very, very interesting. However, none of this was right on. I understand that what I think consciously and subconsciously are different, but this isn't the same as any other experiment or how I feel...

Not sure what personality types are more inclined to do this, but I would think any NF's wouldn't really participate in manipulation, although they are probably good at it when they try... I...

Thanks :) I think I will keep on the meds, i've had to stop taking them both suddenly after more than 6 months taking them, and while my friends who take them have awful withdrawal, all I get is a...

I noticed that my INFP friend and I both get the whole 'wow you're evil' thing a lot. I guess people get comfortable with INFPs, and if they make one mistake, it's such a great deal compared to if...

LOL. You and me both friend.

Mind explaining what those are? I always thought I knew a lot about psychology, especially Humanistic Theory, Positive Psychology and Cognitive Therapy, but those terms I have never come across,...

Thank you all - I think the thing that I have mostly come to as an understanding is that clonazepam is probably my best bet for long term usage (and even short term usage for many others). Two...

I have found that INFPs are passionate about their beliefs - and while some are religious, some are holistic, some are completely secular. INFPs won't always be the same, but they will act on and...

Ethical vegetarian (I will not eat an animal) + ALF supporter + PeTA supporter (mostly because they get unfair criticism). I am a cat person, but I can love any animal.

I'll take that into strong consideration - I might ween myself off the Xanax which has been easy to do so for me and stick with the Klonopin (clonazepam) perhaps. :]

I listened to a lot of pop music as a child, then turning to alternative rock as a young teenager which I rarely listen to now. Linkin Park and Evanescence were my thing, followed by Shine Down and...

You brought him up and it's an interesting topic so sure ^_^

I was actually going to be prescribed medicinal marijuana for psoriatic arthritis (it may be rheumatoid), but my primary doctor let me know that in some cases marijuana can increase anxiety over...
