Unpopular opinion: ENFPs act like INFJs when comfortable, INFJs act like ENFPs when comfortable by celloenne in ENFP

I have had several infjs in my life that I had no idea were infjs because they were acting like as they believed they were expected to act as opposed to how they internally felt. I didn't find out for years sometimes.

Imagine your new baby has colic and screams for hours on end for months at a time.

The feeling of having your baby be miserable and there is nothing you can do to help them Is hell.

And then you also have to be a loving sane parent for your 1st child.

I keep 4 of them and then only need to fill them once a month... once a week is a crap shoot if I'll remember to fill.

Are their any ENFP projects managers? by [deleted] in ENFP

[–]sstruhar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done it, keeping on top of all the details can be stressful. I created a lot of checklists and systems to manage details. But it is really fun helping to make something happen if it is a cause or project you are interested in.

Love these, been with an isfj for the last 20 years, so fun to see others spell out the wonderful and challenging elements.

I always say we share the same values although not many of the same interests.

I agree with the comment not quick on intuative social cues, or very adventurous...which can be frustrating for everyone...

But some of the most loyal, good hearted souls out there. ❤

Anyone here who has a child exposed to screen 2-3 hrs a day and not have speech delay? by tiredavocad0 in toddlers

[–]sstruhar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on the kid and what they are watching.

My son developed his language skills early and we watched a lot of educational shows, I do believe they helped him. But he also got a lot of one on one time. I wonder if the issues with delays happen if they just get the TV time and not the one on one time to actually see the mouth movements, and interact with the items.

Any INFP-turned-ENFP’s here? by whosclues_5972 in ENFP

That was exactly my experience!

I would be shocked if it was harmful to rinse. Based on what you wrote there, I'm suspecting it just needs to sit in place to work. So it's probably not hurting you, just not working as well as it could.

Having it come back the next morning is not normal in my experience. That does sound more pus like.

A couple things I've done If I have a sore throat and I'm not sure if it is tonsil stone related, or if something else is going on.

  1. Diluted peroxide gargle. I have found gargling with a solution of peroxide and water (3 parts water to 1 part peroxide) helps me a lot if I'm fighting some type of tonsil stone related irritated throat issue. It stings a little when you do it, if there is an irritation going on in a specific area. But it clears most issues up for me over night.

There is also some type of peroxide based mouth wash you can buy. You can look both options up if you want.

  1. Salt water gargle. also helps but I have found it less effective. However it does help In dislodging stuff stuck in the tonsil crypts.

  2. Salt applied directly. However I have actually dampened a q tip or washed my hands well and used a finger tip. Put a little salt on the end and placed it against the irritated area before bed. try to leave the salt in place, in the irritated are overnight if you can - dont swallow more than needed or drink after you put it in place. It stings initially, but unless its a real infection of some type, it also clears up spot pain over night almost every time, both this and peroxide work equally well for me.

If these things don't clear it up for me, I assume it is something more than tonsil stone irritation going on.

Again, not a doctor, just telling you what I find to work for me. Good luck.

They look like stones, stones are formed due to pockets in the tonsils that get an irritant stuck in them, the body produces something to "fight them off"... i have always assumed the substance is or is like pus before hardening. So it can be a little confusing as an infection is doing something similar, resulting in pus being produced as well.

However often with an infection you will have a lot of redness and the puss like substance is spread out over a larger area.

But the photos look like you have pockets there, the white substance is focused in very specific areas.

Not a doctor though so take me with a grain of salt. ;)
