Beautiful at times. Painful at others. I think it is like any other state--paradox of unique but common, too. Like a fingerprint. I enjoy my time alone. I will seek it out because I'm hungry to be alone with my thoughts. This is especially true if I have something "emotional" going on. I...

If it's some passive aggressive exchange, then it's not a good thing. That kind of communication and channeling of anger and resentment only erodes a relationship. Otherwise, whatever makes them happy. Personally, I like to trade verbal slaps with people but don't like to bicker. Don't see...

I'll go with INFP. Ti and Fi often end up at the same destination even if they took very different routes. FWIW, I was very much like how you described in your OP. But I went through some extreme hardships and a lot traumatizing experiences. Pretty sure I decided I couldn't afford to...

INTP--Owl or Leopard. Solitary, above it all and self-sufficient.

It's been answered well by the other posters. They beat me to it! From the one INFJ I know, she will express a strong opinion and then ask me what do I think. When I say what I think (if I've even given any thought to it), if it doesn't align with what she said, she appears put out. Like...

I thought I needed some about a month ago. What I really needed was to change my beliefs. A sort of CBT on myself. But back to the antidepressants, if you're going to take them, you need to be seeing a physician who has a plan for your depression. Be thorough with taking your history...

I'm surprised that it happens. I know a couple of INFPs and one INFJ...they are really nothing alike. Maybe I'll take that back. Fe in INFJs can look strange and maybe hard to recognize.

You didn't get the fluff?

I find this happening to me quite often, too. I have an understanding that not everyone is able to bear some things e.g. intense distress, 'deep' topics, or ugly discussions but it can become an isolating experience when there is absolutely no one to turn to. Perhaps it is born of a desire...

Shouldn't it be more like feathers for fluff?

Yes. Yes I do believe I'm going insane. But I agree with a lot of the other posters here. I do believe a lot of breakdowns occur because of lack of social, familial, and emotional support that used to exist in society. We're cut off from others and worse, from ourselves. We're groomed...

I hope so.

I agree with what Cedar said. I would think, too, that people are ever growing, evolving, and changing. So as long as this is happening, how can there be room for stagnation?

The hells...spreading such nonsense! :-P I don't know any other INTPs except online. What's the deal with INTPs being passive-aggressive? It seems to be a male INTP thing *evil grin*

No thinking...just chaos. Slightly more male brain. I'm not surprised.
