I was just thinking about the way very threatening but non-violent and not-very-emotionally-arousing life experiences can affect people. Of course threatening experiences like starvation can provoke emotions, but what I'm talking about are experiences that are much less acutely terrifying...

Yooooo! in case you're in existential crisis continuously, let's be besties and rant on it 😌 Welcome fellow MBTI nerds. permit it all out...Vent right here. (often by talking to a trusted person) here you are allowed to vent without being judged. I am a lover of people, existence, adventure...

Hello everyone, i'm a 17 year old guy and this things used to happen to me about 3 years ago but i will write this very basic so i won't go too much into details i have been dealing with a traumatic past during my childhood specially my school years, i won't go into family problems though. I...

Hi everyone! 💗 I've been working on discovering and practicing different things that help me in the healing process from trauma. Generally, when I research this sort of work, I get a lot of resources about things like breathing exercises, mindfulness, and ways of generally calming down...

Hello INFJs of the interwebs, I got emotionally abused by a covert narcissist for two years, I was codependent with her and she was my best friend. After weeks of guilt inducing I ended the relationship to her. First I was so proud and felt so liberated and full of energy. Now I just saw how...

Recently, I’ve been doing some thinking. It probably sounds really weird and cliche, but I’ve had a really close friend betray me in the worst way possible, by destroying my emotional trust in them, which had been built up for years. Though the entire clash happened years ago, I can still...

I'm not sure if this roots from anxiety, or having enneagram 6 in my enneagram tri-type, but I always turn little things into major problems in my head. And I say this unironically: it's a big problem for me haha. It's hard to pinpoint examples because I can explain them all away, so I'm just...

Hi again, I've been really interested to know if any type 5s have been through any type of trauma. If so, how did you process it? For example, did you process by going into a more unhealthy 5 or into stressed 7? Did you obsess over what happened and try to figure it out, or did you numb out?

I just (on a desperate whim) did a google search of "conventionally good looking and lonely". I usually don't find many gems (who does right? a gem is hard to find) in the search and end up disappointingly weeding through irrelevant results and dated forums. Short back story: I had plans for...

I was constantly beaten, humiliated & mocked by my folks growing up, then raped by a stranger in a a toilet block when I was 13. My folks pressured me to study a course & enter a career I despise, which I am still stuck in today b/c of financial reasons. I know that INFPs are particularly...

During last year (2017), I had a long period of safety from starvation-worshiping terrorists - From March to October - 7 months. For some reason, I thought that I'll be able study normally when I won't be threatened, but I didn't realist the extend of damage done. I tried to use that period to...

For a year and a half, I (the ENFP male) was dating an ESFJ (female). I broke it off. However, I've been recently reconsidering getting back together. We recently talked about where we failed each other, could have tried harder, and reflected on what we've learned apart. PROS: we have...

Hey guys Recently, I had a discussion about Japan and it's culture, traditions, honorific language (I would had to throw in some curses to balance this shit out), ways of being etc and I thought that I would hate to be brought up there. Like literally everything present there goes against my...

Like for instance, say someone goes through a highly emotional and tragic event such as abuse, loss of a loved one, etc. Do you think it could change them from say introverted/sensing/thinking to introverted/intuitive/feeling? So after the trauma they feel more for other people because they've...

Felling ill. Physically and emotionally. I have a few months of safety. Didn't manage to study much, though. I have trouble keeping attention on stuff, remembering what I wanted to be doing. Started a W3C course two weeks ago, but I got distracted a week ago when I encountered radical feminists...

I'm trying to learn web design/coding stuff for years but it's not getting anywhere. I have some kind of severe learning and real time communication impairment ever since the attacks in 2005. Anyway, after the attacks in 2005 and the years of cowardly terror campaign against me I have severe...

This is something that people don't want me to say, it's meant to be behind my back. Do you agree with these people that this is something I shouldn't let the world know? I don't like saying this, but having been falsely accused of being a Pedophile since 2005 and 2011 especially, and the...

So as of the last year or so, after quite a few years of hard work and research that i've put in, I've reached a conclusion that I am suffering from what's called C-PTSD. I certainly have a narcissist (or someone that suffers from narcissism) in my life, and that person is my father (and others...

People, places, and things of the past Inducing dread Negative connotations Traumas unpeeled Prompting me to hide beneath my brick fortress No reason to peer out over the wall Nothing to see there Ruins Unchanged scenery Scorched earth A sunken vessel with all its treasures exhumed...
