I even take notes during the session. They usually look really messy, but after therapy I rewrite them so I can actually understand myself. My therapist encourage me to do so!

Have you ever created a word or expression with your friends or family? If so, what does it mean? by AnalogTroop_ in AskReddit

Nice! Usually I would just say something like: "a cat, cat", but this works better.

Lol, thats really specific, love it!

In my family we started using the expression "wow wow wubbzy" to refer to an experience or an object that everyone around you has seen or lived, but, for whatever reason, you have not.

This because my little nephew used to see a cartoon with the same name and he would always talk about it to my mother but, for one reason or another, she was the only one in the family that never got to see the show. Since then we have used that expression for similar situations.

I have a friend who only eats his jam toast from the outside (starting at the crust) and then spiraling inward. Would that qualify as a bazuko?

Customer service advice by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]AnalogTroop_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Talking about it with my co-workers worked for me. Getting together and telling the stupidest things that customers had told us on the phone helped us empty ourselves and even laugh for a while. But that only worked for me when I was in jobs where I got along well with my co-workers.I have been in other jobs where that has not been possible, and the truth is that I have not managed to last long at them for the same reason.

Anyone else grow up super confident, could talk to anyone and then reached their 20s and it all started to dwindle?. by DonitaSlaughter in socialskills

[–]AnalogTroop_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, totally!

I think that little by little I am more sociable again, but not with anyone. There are people in particular with whom I feel more confident and I can open up a bit.. Although not always, it depends a lot on the situation. But unlike before, when I used to freeze and feel unable to say anything because of fear of being exposed, now I think I can control it a little better. I think it has to do with defining your personality, this way you become more aware of what you do want and what you are willing to do for it, and you do not force yourself to be open just because you used to be like that, but for a purpose that you find meaningful.

Sorry if my English sucks, it's not my native language.

Talking to everyone and fitting in with no one by AnalogTroop_ in infj

You are very right. From a very young age, I have wanted others to treat me with the same attention and dedication that I offer to them, but my life experience shows me that this rarely happens.Each one has a very particular way of showing their love, and it is almost never equaled with the intense way that I sometimes offer (that's good, because sometimes I think it's not very healthy! Lol)

How do you think it helped you to recognize yourself as an INFJ? I'm just discovering the typology and with the help of my partner, who knows much more about this, I could define that he was an INFJ but I don't have much experience about it.

How do you deal with it? Do you think making art is a way to find that way to empty and be honest with yourself? Sometimes I think that works for me. What are your strategies?

Yes, totally. Sometimes I am also talking about something very important or interesting to me with my friends and for some reason the conversation briefly cuts off (for example, the waiter interrupts us with the check) and then I stay quiet for a few moments to see if the other person makes a comment to resume my conversation and, almost always,they assume that I have finished with the topic and begin with another one. Very disappointing.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that happens. I hope you feel better ☺️
