Today I had a physical examination. I had to hold back my tears the entire time. Why? I was stuttering, shaking, and choking on my own words. Are these teenage hormones or something? What is causing this fear? I don't want this to happen again. It's annoying to be falling apart like that every...

Hello ! It is my first post in PerC, I don't know if this question is already answered, but I would like to know how I can be the best sister for my 14 years old INFP brother. It would be great to listen to INFP's feedback about teenagehood. And how to support his developpement in the best way...

Quick question: Do you care a lot about being understood? So I'm new here. Heck, this sounds petty. I'm not sure this post will even be seen and I certainly hope joining this page will not be as bad of an idea as joining that group. I guess I need someone to rant to, someone who can conversate...

Hi, I'm an INFP and I'm a teenager. If there are any other young people on here that would know, that would be great. So, I'm wondering about other NFs. I want to meet other NFs because I get along best with them, and I might even want to date one at some point. (I'm not trying to make online...

What's my type? Based on my description INFJ? INFTJ? INFP?? Hi everyone , most of the "intro" and what I want to say can probably be found in the "intro" :laughing: Anyways, I anticipated it to be a short intro but it turned out to be quite a comprehensive description of myself. I decided to...

Hi everyone! First time introducing myself (I took really long to type this!) Hi everyone, I have followed Personality Cafe for quite a while now but never thought of signing up until now. This is the first time ever I've ever actually wrote a "hi" thread on a forum. Usually I don't introduce...

Hi,I'm a seventeen-year-old INTJ female,and I want a friend.But alas,how do I go about making friends when the people my age are either idiots or have there own group of friends. I've been a third wheel almost all my life... I'm also a type 5 if that will help you understand my dilemma a bit more.

Hey guys! I posted a question for my fellow INFJs a few days ago and got a great response with lovely advice from everyone, so I was wondering if some of you more mature INFJs (read: over about age 22) have any advice for us younger ones? I'm 17 and entering my senior year of high school, so a...

I was wondering if any other INTP's had a similar experience. Being excessively rational and compulsively meta as a teenager, I didn't rebel and I thought anybody who displayed any form of teenage rebellion were sheep. I think this stunted my growth. I see now the purpose of this phase was to...

I went to chapters this evening, I wanted a book, I haven't really gotten into one for a few months (last was Paper Towns by John Green), I was looking through the fiction section when my mom recommended I looked at the teen and young adult section. To my dismay, the section mostly was filled...

Dumb teenagers, smart teenagers? My stepfather used to say: Although you're a very intelligent and smart fella, kids your age in this generation are dumb. Obviously, the aspects of teenagers have changed throughout the decades, but in the elder's perspective, it's becoming worse. With the...

I just need to get some things off my chest. Care to give it a read if you'd like, for whatever reason. Maybe some of you can relate, but hopefully not. Despite the first paragraph, I really don't want any of you guys to feel the way that I do. When I get angry, or upset, or when I say things...

I think this goes here since it has careers but if not feel free to tell me. So, I turned 16 a few months ago which means I'm finally of legal age to get a job. I've been looking and applied for a few places ( 5 I think ) and it's been 1-2 weeks for them. I don't know many places to apply...

Being slightly resentful of the human race; it makes this decision sort of hard. Should I go to prom? I haven't been asked to it, formally by a dude or anything. My friends asked me. The people at this dance are not my favorites; aside from my friends. I'm really sick of feeling left out. But If...

Hello everyone :) So... this is my first time asking for any sort of public opinion via the internet and I'm kind of nervous but...yeah I need to find this out! Not sure if I'm an ENFP, INFP, INFJ (by now I'm sure you realize how effing confused I am), ENFJ or ENTP So ever since I first...

Hey there fellow gen Z-ers (??) I keep trying to make videos/vlogs but end up never posting them. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in watching an (affordable) makeup/beauty/stuff video directed towards teens (cough most of gen Z) I know there are plenty of youtube videos you can...

Well, that is certainly a poor excuse for a subject line. Hello, I'm knightingling. I have been lurking on Personality Cafe for a while and I found the discussions really interesting and engaging. Now, a little introduction. I've always known myself to be an introvert since I was younger...

Hello all, So the last few weeks I've been trying to retype myself and I found myself looking back at some old poetry that I wrote to during my high school years. One of the descriptions for 9w1 is that they'll say they had a good childhood and to me I feel that can't be further from the truth...
