8 Traits Of A Highly Sensitive Infj Personality Type explores key ideas related to psychology, presented clearly and practically.
While the unique traits and characteristics
of both INFJs and HSPs overlap in many ways,
definitely come up against some challenges
that other INFJs don’t in their everyday lives.

Number 1: Mental confusion causing burnout
Living in this fast paced world can be difficult
for all HSPs alike. Because HSPs are much better
at thinking deeply than they are at thinking
quickly, taking in information from multiple
directions can be extremely overwhelming. Most
INFJs share this HSP characteristic, however,
for highly sensitive INFJs in particular,
this mental confusion can cause them to shut
down and even make them feel physically sick.
For example, most HSP INFJs know that in order for
them to feel comfortable in a social situation,
they usually need to do some type of mental
preparation in terms of needing to know who
is going to be there, where the location is, what
will be offered for food and so forth - this is
because they want the least amount of mental
processing as possible once they get there.
For the same reason HSP INFJs have difficulties
living in the fast paced world we all call home,
anti-social in certain types of environments.
It’s fair to say that all INFJs would most likely
prefer to enjoy a weekend at home than at a loud
music festival, but for a highly sensitive INFJ,
large gatherings like this could drain them of
their social battery in the matter of minutes.
and social stimuli. So this means, bright
lights, loud music, conversations, smells,
visuals and even substances can have a major
effect on the highly sensitive INFJ. However,
music festivals are on the extreme end - as simple
environments like bright shopping malls, loud
offices, and even busy highways can also wreak
havoc on this personality type’s nervous system.
they are misunderstood, as it’s rare for them to
feel completely understood in most circumstances.
However, when a highly sensitive INFJ begins
talking about how they feel physically ill
when watching a violent movie scene, or that
they feel completely drained and exhausted
after an hour or 2 of socializing with friends,
it can definitely make people wonder if they’re
because having high sensitivity can often be
perceived as seeming weak or overly emotional.
By not fitting into the societal expectations of
the masculinity image, highly sensitive infj men
often hide this incredible gift in fear of being
ridiculed. When in reality, HSPs experience life
much more deeply than the rest of the population,
Number 4: Overactive nervous system responses
An overactive nervous system can show in many
different ways, however, when it comes to the
responses of the HSP nervous system they can be
especially overwhelming. Since INFJs use their
introverted intuition as their most dominant
function, they are familiar with using their gut
feelings in order to make decisions. However,
for highly sensitive INFJs, these gut feelings and
intuitive hunches aren’t your simple “butterflies
in the stomach” sensation. Instead, the high
sensitivity causes intense waves of emotions
and the physical feelings that accompany them.
For example, if an HSP INFJ feels like they’re on
the wrong career path, they can feel overwhelming
primal sensations of feeling sick to the stomach,
experiencing intense headaches, muscle pains, and
wanting to drop everything and flee the scene.
When the intuition of an HSP INFJ knows something,
it’ll make the necessary bodily sensations
so that their message comes across clearly.
Number 5: Hangriness and caffeine sensitivity
When looking into the different types of HSP
personalities, some people experience more
emotional sensitivity, while others experience
more physical sensitivities.. and then there are
people that experience food sensitivities.
Although we’re not talking about allergies
here today, sometimes certain foods can cause a
major effect on the overactive nervous system of
highly sensitive people. So, if you’re an INFJ who
experiences crazy jitters after one cup of coffee,
a major crash a few hours after that coffee,
and unpredictable swings in your energy and
mood throughout the day, you may be a highly
sensitive INFJ afterall. While the human body
does an amazing job at stabilizing our energy
throughout the day, HSPs are known to experience
intense effects when it comes to hungriness and
their food choices. Remember, every feeling
is amplified for highly sensitive individuals,
so a simple grumbling stomach can throw off
distracting causing hunger like no other.
There’s no doubt that the INFJ has an inner world
that most of us would love to live in for a day.
While it can be a little chaotic, the INFJ has an
incredibly complex inner world with fairytale-like
fantasies and introspective insights on the world.
So, it’s no wonder why they would spend a
good amount of their hours in their heads.
However, for an HSP INFJ, it’s not so easy.
reality can almost be seen as a constant annoying
distraction to what’s going on internally. INFJs
need a good amount of time in their heads everyday
in order to properly process information, however,
they also need some sort of socialization. So
this can cause issues for a highly sensitive INFJ
who may resort to complete anti-socialism.
outer environments and are usually keen on
spending quality time with no one but themselves.
Since INFJs have a short social battery life,
it’s not unlikely for them to require a good
amount of rest, relaxation and recharging
in order to fully feel like themselves. Well,
the same goes with highly sensitive INFJs,
just on a slightly larger scale. In fact, since
HSP INFJs are even more sensitive to the emotions
and energies of the people around them, they
tend to be affected on a much deeper scale.
When they are around happy, up beat people, they
can absorb that feeling but can quickly become
drained by all the energy it takes to keep up. And
on the flipside, they can easily become dragged
down by lower-vibration people, also causing them
to exhaust their energy. In other words, because
the HSP INFJ is so easily affected by outer
stimuli, they require much more rest and recharge
time alone in comparison to the average INFJ.
Number 8: An overwhelming reaction to beauty
Highly sensitive people are known to experience
a different type of appreciation and profoundness
when it comes to the beautiful things in life.
In fact, most INFJs also share this trait once
they get out of their over analytical heads
and take the moment for what it is. Nature,
fine art, unique people - to name a few, INFJ
HSPs can easily find themselves mesmerized by
can literally feel the joy and euphoria of a
new romantic connection between 2 strangers,
and the beauty of someone with a completely
unique clothing style. Not only are these
highly sensitive INFJs able to see the true beauty
in things, but they can actually find themselves
being completely distracted by them. For example,
it can be difficult to have a full conversation
with this personality type while enjoying a
nature walk in the forest because they are
usually fully immersed in the soothing sounds of
the leaves, the patterns of the bark on the trees,
the feeling of the roots under their feet,
and the feeling of the warm sun on their face.
