An INFJ

@OhhKay

@confusingmaybe

Hey! Its actually really nice to meet you :) In person I have never met another INFJ, but its cool to know theyre out there!

@OhhKay

Greetings😊. I have not taken the test yet though I know the result already😉...I am struggling with major depression now passing in my 9th year. Severe and chronic...In theory my body is able to do things and I know what to do, my mind functions logically and ratinally, from others I do not expect for them to do things for me but do things with me, for example I don't need anyone to clean my room but be there with me to keep me company in fun...loneliness and depression create this vicious caroussel which is extremely destructive...as I said, "depression is the loss of will to live" and we just wait doing nothing...lost interest in everything, lost basic life routines...we need a meaning in life and even that is not sufficient...please excuse my rambling and it is deeply saddening for me to meet another victim of depression...I hope things will get better for you🤗😊

Hello! Thank you for your open and helpful response! I agree, it

@OhhKay

Best of luck 🤗😊, it helps us others to see someone who takes on the battle with depression. I wish you win, for all of us out there who lost...😔😔😔

@zeeebah

Thank you so much for your kind words! I wish you the same as well :) youre battle has gone on a lot longer than mine, and I think youre really strong for continuing to encourage others and keep on.

@OhhKay

I'm literally going through the same thing as in your paragraph. Its nice to have it put into words of another. It is hard not to have the return of feelings, or not to have people notice and treat me as i would them, but I'm slowly learning to put those thoughts aside and make myself happy.

@confusingmaybe

Thank you for sharing! I agree, its difficult when you care so much not to have the same amount and effort given back. I used to think my over caring nature was a fault, but now I am starting to see it as a gift. We have so much to offer, and those that are lucky enough to see it will be glad, and hopefully try to care as much as we do. I hope you keep improving! :)

INFJ gang!! I remember I also took the test when I was going through a really, really rough time. It was when I was still struggling a lot with my own emotions, and couldn't really identify how I was feeling. But when I found out I was INFJ, it kind of gave me a sense of identity?? As I read the description, it was just so spot-on and, I know it sounds cheesy, but I felt like I was truly seen. It was one of the first times I ever realized that there were other people out there that were feeling the same way as me. Thank you for sharing your story, because it helps me see that other people have had that same experience :)

What you described is exactly how I felt! Being an INFJ is definitely wonderful, but since we are so emotionally driven, its also a challenge I believe. I completely agree, when I saw the results I saw myself finally, and things lined up and made a lot more sense. But thats also when I looked at other personalities and saw how differently they react to situations, which is absolutely fine, but it was a bit of a wake up call for me not to expect everyone to react as I do. Im not sure if youre familiar with this website, but theres one called intorvertdear.com and it has a lot of articles about INFJs or introverts in general, much of which is very relatable and helpful. Thank you for your response! It really is nice to see someone else relate to how I feel. :)
