treatment-like mood when they’re upset with

someone, they don’t utilize this silent-mode

This second choice leads the INFJ to distract

themselves through their external environment

While everyone goes through these motions

on a certain level, depending on the severity

of the disappointment or distress, when the

INFJ steps out of their minds in times of

dismay, it can feel rather out of character.

In the same sense, INFJs have to try extra

hard to avoid slipping back into their loud

and distracting inner minds, which makes it

crucial that they find something actually

values and insights is a sure way to do it.

Since the open-minded INFJ is never quick

one of their close connections, or they’re

stressing about a workplace relationship,

the only time someone will hear about it is

when it’s become all too much for the INFJ

to laugh off, forgive, or live and let live.

venting person..so if you see them venting

Number 6: They challenge the upsetting words

Like we said, there’s not many things that

would send the INFJ to the point of being

people and the origins of their habits and

emotions, this personable introverted type

prefers to practice the ‘think before you

using subconscious grounding techniques to
