'Ah, yes. Okay. But would you even be here if i were flat chested? Sometimes I want to project my appearance as a humanoid black shadow so people literally /can't/ get stopped up over physical...

Not once before, in these 20 years of life, have I had difficulties breaking away from a kiss. This is a very uncomfortable thing to realize as it happens-- the knowledge that you've never been so...

Can I do anything that isn't freelancing with a BFA? Art is the only thing I have the ability to concentrate on, and I can't even sit through the academics required for a BA, but I don't actually...

I've tracked my process to the final conclusion of Assimilation>pining. I'm in a constant state of trying to assimilate something into myself, and if that situation climaxes in a successful bond I'm...

I'm not sure if this is the thread I should be posting this on but it's somewhat anecdotal and I'm desperate: Beginning this semester (after being diagnosed with bipolar and put on Lamictal and...

@Amphoteric I hope you hit a vein of luck next year. Could it be what school you're at? I'm trying to transfer because I think it may help. (Edit: I have no idea if I did the @ right. If not and...

What year are you? I'm doing this now as a Freshman and I'm terrified it won't get better.

Drank my problems away and woke up in the hospital at 1:30 am with no recollection of leaving my friend's room. Not remembering a span of several hours is kind of terrifying, but aside from that I...

What does it mean when someone consistently says they'd like to be your friend but fails to ever exhibit the correct behavior? I tried to tell someone I wanted to walk away this morning but they're...

Technically, we never did more than kiss. Once. I met him on a vacation while visiting a friend (only person I've ever met from Tinder, I'm way too picky for that) and the rest was talk until I met...

It's triggering because he's had similar depressing and anxious things happen in the past, which I understand-- I personally am not upset by other people, but I've known others before that have had...

I'm in need of advice but unsure of who to ask, so perhaps a semi-anonymous forum with a range of people (even if we are all INFPs here) is the best place to start. Friend with mutual interest as...

I have this intimate friend, and I'm pretty sure I'm the only person that's ever found him attractive. His voice sounds like a frog who swallowed an ice cube (and he doesn't speak often because of...

Amphoteric, I'm in exactly the same place as you right now with just as little time left. It feels like there isn't anything to look forward to but repeating this semester would DEFINITELY suck, so...

I don't get it. I was diagnosed with bipolar (which seemed arbitrary to me because she couldn't explain why other than I specialize in it and recognize red flags), and the diagnosis itself threw me...

After one enlightening therapy appointment that pointed out most of the weird shit I do can actually be attributed to an anxiety attack, I ended up creating a shockingly understandable abstract for...

I have no idea what I'm doing, stumbling into all these social organizations. Everyone is super nice and wants me to be there, but I know they're going to grow tired of my shyness soon (it's weird...

I used to have periods like this- in middle school I'd follow Certain rituals- and once I even had this bracelet that I’d turn in a specific fashion and I ended up winning my section’s Geo-Bee. I...

I know that's the situation (though this person has had a way worse life than me and is actually healthy all things considered). I should stop thinking about it because it wasnx92t even that big of a...

I just learned that a friend I used to be close to drifted from me because of my attatchment to sadness/adrenaline/etc. she asked me out of the blue why I was like that, I explained, and then she...

I've begun to cut, but it isn't fulfilling yet because I can't get them deep enough. I've just reached the point where they've begun to bleed a little bit, but a mess of small scratches is still...

I'm an INFP but everything in this thread describes my emotions on point.

My depression cycle goes blue (mild down)>black(physically painful sadness)>brown (everything is funny, desire to die)/>red(manic similarities). I haven't experienced much black in a while, it's...

This happened to me constantly as a child.

I tend to not call my crushes by their names... as if it'll magically reach that person's ears from miles away. I call my current one Boy in Sweater.

I had a habit of relieving stress by taking long walks very close to the road, often at night. I think I enjoyed scaring the pants off myself :I It made me more stressed in actuality but the...

ISFP mom+INTJ dad=INFP child. my mom and I are friends- we bicker and laugh plentifully. My dad is emotionally distant and work oriented, but we share a similar humor and tendency to plan and obsess...

Thank you very much

My friend has been struggling with her E vs. I (NFP) for a while- she sent me this recently, and I finally just asked if I could share it verbatim to see what a more educated audience can yield. So,...

I never thought I would be an object of sexuality. The attention is foreign to me.

I've taken to drinking and hooking up frequently. At least, frequently compared to my standards. I may feel bad about not feeling bad. Quite frankly my emotions are moving like a blurry weather...

i relate heavily, and I know another infp that says things along these lines frequently.

I do tend to feel bad after casual sex-like deeds. Normally (read: ideally) in that situation I'd Find someone devastatingly attractive to me both physically and mentally, hook up with them, and...

Depression is really weird. I forgot my cymbalta this morning, and the best cure so far has been doing quadruple shots of espresso, running laps with all the lights off and running my arms under cold...

I have fallen into a habit of guilt over things that are only harmful to myself.

If I contacted him he probably wouldn't even remember me XD he's at a local college that my friend attends and I've been begging him to take me back, but I guess there are some things going on at the...

I'm sure it's this, which is why seeing him again would be so beneficial, because it would be living proof that I'm idealizing. Unfortunately that isn't possible, so I'm stuck in the INFP in love...

Similar expressive style. Pheromones. The right timing. I'm not so sure.

I can't stop thinking about someone I've met exactly once, months ago. I'm just choc full of longing and soul searching and it's simultaneously the best and worst part, but my longing wants to know...

Sleeping family down stairs, people are enjoying themselves. Goes to visit The ruckus makes me tired back to bed. The cycle.

Do any other INFP's tend to get really upset or anxious when their patents are under stress? Not because they're treating you badly, but due to empathy.

The only INTJ I know of for certain is my father, and we've been told we're...exactly alike. At least, our humor and argumentational styles are the same, for better and worse. We can't even attempt a...

Through a series of events, I ended up stalking one of my friend's grades (we use a system that keeps our gpa, rank, test scores, etc. in one place- a person's ID number is their password, so it...

I'm a shopaholic. Particularly using the internet, because everything is easier in the comfort of your own home.. It isn't even that I want so many items, just the action of buying them and expecting...

I am so very terrified that the rushing conclusion of my college search process will have lead me to a dead end. I know the people who write reviews online tend to be more bitter than your average...

As a person who in retrospect hasn't been around all that long, I always find it interesting, though a little off-putting, to find out the real personalities and motivations of my elders. My...

I'm doing poorly in one of my art classes because I do most of the work outside of class/ in other periods, and usually do the work for another class in that class because I finished early And my...

this is pretty much my life I'm sorry

It feels as if there's an earth quake but I think arbitrary parts of my body vibrating i think my stomach isn't mine, or my stomach and head have switched places I'm not particularly unhappy about...

I lost it somewhere while obsessing like an INFP. Sorry.'
