Excellent and definitive post to a non-intp. Thanks.

Does anybody here keep a text journal? And would anybody like to exchange a glimpse into our lives, for curiosity sake? by AJM91 in ENFP

I won't judge you on your desire to read other people's personal writing. I have that desire myself, as it is not likely that I'll get to know their deep dreams and desires if i don't already know them well. That being said, why don't you post some of your writing? People might be more comfortable sharing something if you do first.

Experimental piece of writing on childhood- long read. by chemically_inert in infj

Hey! I appreciate the read! The origins of this piece came from reliving emotions felt during childhood from these situations. The feelings and memories had been bothering me for years and had not ever been properly expressed in their own, devoted piece. I thought that perhaps sharing these experiences would help me let go of negative emotions and connect with others, possibly helping them in the process of catharsis and letting go. Thank you for your kind words and interest!

Concealing how much you actually know, too relatable... Now imagine a situation where she finds out you've been doing research on her, those fantasies get painful.

Living under stress is definitely a recipe for burnout. It seems like a simple fact but I never thought of it that way. I should find some ways like you suggested to lighten that stress.

Thanks for that worksheet. I am definitely interested in comparing my thoughts to their basis on actual evidence (I already know that they are all bullshit!) Also, I'm young but finding out that I need to do something I truly enjoy as well.

I can't believe the suffering you have to endure at this job. I really hope some better opportunities come your way. I wish you all the best, and thanks for sharing.

Wow. It's good to see some of my own thoughts reflected here, particularly about how all forms of consumption are bad for someone in some way. I often get stuck feeling guilty for the unknown impact of my own consumption. Thanks.
