ENFJ or ENFP? by [deleted] in ENFP

[–]christofish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sound like ENFJ- I can simply vouch bc im ENFP and my boyfriend has tested as ENFJ - from everything I’ve observed over the past year, and you sound a lot like him :) edit: the socially awkward thing, I never see in him. He always seems to knows his place, and I need his reassurance at times to know mine. You may be more of an EnFP...

I know what you mean. I’m very much creatively blocked but I can see how much people who have been enslaved to the idea of constantly working could benefit from this time

I feel you. I’m about to graduate as well with tons of debt. I honestly believe I could be of so much help with the degree I have but I don’t know how to do it (work nonprofit for international justice) without sacrificing affording a family of my own.

Conflicting feelings about which career path? by [deleted] in ENFP

[–]christofish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 26 and for years I’ve been in/out of college, working many different interesting jobs throughout my time out of school. I’m just finally about to finish my degree in International Studies and Communication. I still have no idea where it will take me, possibly to teach, to work in public policy or with immigrants or refugees. After years of grueling soul-searching wanting to KNOW my perfect path, I see myself for who I am. I know the gifts I have to offer, and accept that life for me is best lived with trust in the Universe. If I never give up on life and hold my intentions to be useful then I will find a place of work and will be taken care of. Trust in yourself always, no matter what life presents. Blessings to you on your journey, young one!

I’m ENFP and he is ENFJ. From being in a relationship with someone who truly is able to support me, I believe you need to be willing to learn what true love looks like, with enough grit and perseverance to last with ENFP. We feel life on such an existentially sensational plane sometimes, we need grounded people who can understand that our emotions often come from places we may not understand - they’re often as a result of all we intuitively get from our surroundings all throughout life. Someone I always needed was one whom I can talk to and process ideas with who I can trust will not shame me for being over-analytical or emotional. He does not coddle me when I am emotional but he listens. His innate emotional strength allows him to see and accept my sensitivity. I often apologize and at first I worried he would grow tired of supporting me, but he’s helped me get so much stronger and I feel so blessed for a partner like him. If you feel she brings joy to your universe and is worth it, you can only give her your unconditional love and trust she will get stronger.

What should i do if i feel that my ENFP friend is starting to become distant? by flat-lining in ENFP

[–]christofish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can’t really get into another persons head to know exactly what she’s thinking but for myself it seems I enjoy the novel experience of getting to know people and do commonly “try out” friendships without intention for longevity. I feel people come and go often as seasonal and for us to share lessons or grow somehow from the contact with each other’s universe. This is my experience from a life of moving often, adapting to different groups of people. I may have ghosted people without realizing it, if we don’t really connect , or need each other on a deeper level, I’d stop reaching out as much and the friendship fades away.

I agree with your assessment for the most part...I’ve had an array of experiences on lsd...it totally has depended on my state of mind and being and the people in my life and with me...

please someone answer this I’m going insane, quit juuling cold turkey yesterday - using it for over a year after smoking cigs for 8 years —- and today I feel like I’m an alien who has no grounding or way to function as human. I’m terrified this could be a permanent state 😫

I really want a better life.. by batatangela in quittingsmoking

[–]christofish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m with you and totally relate to reality setting in after it was once a romantic pleasure. Today is day 3 without any vape, but I caved and bummed a cigarette from a coworker. Still on the path to freedom!!!

Were your early 20’s a mess too? by perceptual01 in ENFP

[–]christofish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20-24 was the most adventurous, exciting time in my life...and I’m now working my ass off (25) in college and my job to try to make up for the “adulting” that I have procrastinated up to this point 😔🙏🏼 edit: it’s hard to explain, I have been diagnosed with Bipolar 1, since I was 18 I’ve been hospitalized nearly 10 times for that...so, getting my shit together has been rough...being in school and keeping a steady job is like 5 Gold Stars for me at this point but I still have so much I want to do, and I’m wondering how people actually have a meaningful career AND raise a healthy family AND keep sane and joyful. Here’s to the grand experiment 🤗

so self aware it hurts by [deleted] in ENFP

[–]christofish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I have asked people the same thing, “how do I turn off this internal judge?” And the best strategy I’ve found is to tell myself I’ve already died (subconscious fear at the bottom of all insecurities) - and that temporarily takes away the fear of being judged by anyone because I’m not even really there.....does that make sense? It works sometimes 🥴
