As an INFJ, I can vouch that I am somewhat psycho. Having said that, not all INFJ’s are psycho. If you think you are a psycho INFJ, most likely you might be an unhealthy one that is struggling.
1. We observe our world.
We observe people, we observe buildings, we observe plants -- we just love to observe things to a great extent. It comes handy in life sometimes, but other times it can distract us from what is more important.
2. We observe because we make mental patterns and reminders.
INFJ use these patterns collected to think and decide our situations and feelings. These thoughts can be internalized and unhealthily obsessed over.
3. We can be hot and cold very easily.
Generally speaking, we are people with little to a lot of patience. It all depends on which one we’re feeling to have with you based on the kind of “energy” you give me.
4. INFJ are very good at detecting different kinds of emotional energy.
Sometimes we feel like we might even know exactly what you’re thinking. It’s just our ability to empathize. We can also become very egotistic about feeling like we know everything even when in reality, we really don’t know everything.
5. Simultaneously we are both logical and idealistic.
We would like to be considered logical, and we use logic to filter our idealism… however we are intrinsically idealistic in the sense that we try to visualize the full potential of any circumstance.
6. We don’t feel like we belong.
Many fellow INFJ’s report feelings of isolation, and confusion with identity. Even if we seem popular or even extroverted, we are never fully comfortable with the large crowd because we can’t fully assimilate to the majority.
7. We know how good and how bad we can be.
Our potentials for good or evil shock us. Sometimes we have extremely morbid and dense thoughts. We are also very good at adapting our image and personalities to our advantage.
8. A lot of INFJ are HSP.
Especially unhealthy INFJ’s. Many things can trigger an unhealthy INFJ, including but not limited to: sounds, lights, smells, and memories.
9. Sometimes we rely on the MBTI too much.
Remember how we love patterns? Just know not to get too absorbed into reading them and reflecting them onto society. It’s hard but take it with a grain of salt because it’s not good to live relying on a personality test without getting to learn the true personalities of people.
Even though we may have our psycho tendencies, INFJ's can be really great people to have in your life.
