10 Reasons The Smartest Mbti Types Are The Most Unhappy

10 Reasons The Smartest Mbti Types Are The Most Unhappy explores key ideas related to psychology, presented clearly and practically.



If ignorance is bliss, then knowledge must be

misery.. And no one knows this to be more true

in some circumstances than the so-called smarted

MBTI types themselves. INTPs, INTJs, INFPs,

and INFJs are ranked among the most intelligent,

and to them being smarter than average definitely

offers some leverage in their success as a person,

but..how does it affect their contentment in life?

Welcome or welcome back PSYCH-Os! Before we get

A notorious intuitive habit.. Overanalyzing

can become seriously detrimental to overall

happiness in life. There is a term called

higher intelligence doubt their abilities,

while the most incompetant ones are the most

confident. A great example of this phenomenon

is true for some of the most intelligent people

throughout history like INTP Albert Einstein,

INTJ Nikola Tesla, and INFP William Shakespeare,

who all had a difficult road to their success

and findings. Analyzing decisions is a natural

and healthy way to learn from past mistakes.

However, over analyzing just leads to self doubt,

unnecessary criticisms and self-manipulation to

the point of not being able to even reflect on the

situation. This comes from the idea that nothing

is ever quite good enough because they know

they have the potential to do it near perfectly.

People who are considered smarter than others,

whether it’s noticeable or not, tend to be more

inclined to having deeper conversations. They much

rather discuss topics that they will learn from or

can teach about..topics that have a certain level

of depth, introspection and well.. Intelligence.

However, in today's society, small talk and

gossip are the highlights of most conversations,

which is completely unappealing to these MBTI

types because their brains are just operating on

a more profound level. This is a great trait when

they are able to have meaningful conversations

with like-minded or open minded people however,

it can be very difficult to socialize on a day

to day basis, at the office, at gatherings, or

even on dates with certain personality types.

for a person with a higher IQ to socialize

Reflecting on the past and utilizing lessons

for the future is an important and healthy

part of growing as an individual. Luckily,

use their reflecting tendencies to advance

in areas that others seem to struggle in.

However, the negative side to this habit comes

when they overindulge in this reflection period

asking questions like how we all got here, and

why we eventually die are natural curiosities,

after. For intuitive and introspective types,

these curiosities really weigh on them from time

to time, and the act of constant analysis can lead

to overwhelming bouts of anxiety or depression.

Although the topics aren’t always that extreme,

the thoughts that don’t deserve more than

sometimes it’s best if they just let it go!

People pleasing is a hard trait to deal with and

can ultimately lead to unrealistic expectations of

self. Like the saying goes, if everyone likes

you, then you probably don’t like yourself.

People pleasing can make us constantly feel like

we owe ourselves to other people while putting our

own needs on the back burner..and that’s exactly

what these intelligent types can end up doing.

for example, can pose as being especially

dangerous because the people pleaser will not

know when to stop taking on tasks, creating

an unbearable burden on their lives. For some

types this can also pertain to looks and status.

Constantly caring how others view you mentally

and visually can lead to low self-esteem,

Speaking of pleasing people, these smarter types

can end up pushing themselves way past their own

limits for the sake of personal success. It’s

as if they feel the need to please that part of

themselves that knows they can do more, without

taking into account mental health, personal space

and emotional sanity. Sure, smarter people may

put their needs on the back burner to please

others, but the high expectations they set for

themselves is right there on their priority list.

By pushing themselves a little too hard, it

can actually have the opposite of their desired

result by actually negatively affecting their

overall outcome and quality of work. Pushing

and then get disappointed in themselves when

we don’t reach those unrealistic expectations.

even the most rational personalities can end up

making rather irrational decisions. Rationality is

manifested through mental clarity and coherence,

two things that require rather simple thinking.

People of higher intelligence tend to not

completely trust their ability to make decisions

not be the best decision. They can see all

angles of a situation and how certain actions

can pose different results..and that alone

can make decision-making rather overwhelming,

This, in turn, then leads them to sometimes

make the wrong decision, resulting in them over

analyzing the next decision they are faced with.

The thought of ‘just going with it’ is also

not an option in their eyes, which makes them

feel as if they are responsible to control

Number 7: They may have poor physical health

sometimes people of higher IQ tend to lack

physical-intelligence which is the ability

to read your body to know what it needs and

wants. Even hyper-sensitive types can end

up unconsciously neglecting their body’s cues

like taking a rest when their body needs it,

lifestyle to benefit their physical health.

Often enough, smarter people tend to view

their physical health as a secondary priority

because they are so heavily involved in all of the

obligations they’ve made themselves responsible

for. Plus, spending so much time in their heads

can make connecting with the physical body

rather foreign..often requiring some type of

concentration to know what they physically need.

Despite the fact that the 4 most intelligent

types just so happen to be introverted, highly

intelligent people in general tend to be more

content with being alone. Since they’re so focused

on everything they have going on in their busy

lives, preferring to learn, explore and navigate

the world on their own, these types are too

focused on achieving their goals. This can lead

them to easily turn down opportunities to spend

time with other people. Plus, as mentioned above,

the thought of socializing for some smart people

seems exhausting and not even worth it, especially

if it’s not a meaningful conversation, which is

hard to come by. This can be a down side however,

Number 9: They have high expectations for people

A major reason why these smarter types want to

be alone has to do with their high expectations

of people. Because these people think deeply

about topics and have great common sense, they

automatically expect that from people around them,

which, as we all know, is nothing but false hope.

Because of this, these intelligent personality

types are disappointed time and time again,

the frustration that comes along with that.

Considering the first 9 points, I’m sure this

doesn't come as a surprise, but it is one worth

discussing. Actively reducing stress is so crucial

for personality types of higher intelligence in

order to feel true happiness in life. Through over

analyzing their decisions, overworking themselves,

not having or wanting anyone to vent to, and

holding an overwhelming view of the world,

it makes sense that these personality types

would be more stressed. Yet, de-stressing

is much easier said than done since they are

always willing to push themselves to that next

level. Even if these people were to take a long

vacation; it wouldn’t be out of the norm for their

minds to be racing about all the things they need

to get done once it’s over and what they could

be doing if they weren’t relaxing. Still, maybe

it’s time to take a load off, you clever buggers!
