Hi everyone! First of all, I am SO glad to find a community of people who understand!!! Especially lately, I have been feeling frustrated about not feeling "seen" or understood.

I am currently living with my fiancé in Georgia (US), teaching high school English, and walking a path to deepen my understanding of myself and how I fit into the world as an HSP/INFJ. Also trying to figure out if the chapter of my life as a classroom teacher is coming to an end.

Favorite books? Only 3? Whew! The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah, Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, and Les Miserables by Victor Hugo.

Hello to everyone, I am English by birth but living in Spain as of thirty years. I could say that my own books were amongst my favourite books but there are two books in particular that have stayed ingrained in my mind ever since I read them. One was The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, wow! How I loved that one as a child. I was in love with the idea of other lands! In teenage years it was The Lord of the Rings that I fell in love with, a truly beautiful piece of writing. Both have influenced my character traits I know. The Harry Potter series have been my adult return to the beautiful world of grand writing of other lands! I sit on the sidelines of life, not working at all. My job has become my partner and acting the roles that he requires me to play. Rapunzel, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty.

Menopause has seen this Sleeping Beauty wake from what seems like a quarter of a century hibernation and wonder how this has happened! I am trying to find the way to my future, wherever that may lie!

Well, I adopted this little gal 9 years ago from a local animal shelter. I wondered for years what kinds of breeds were in her genetic background. Last month, she finally had her doggy-DNA test…

She is 1/3 chihuahua, about 1/5 Australian Cattle dog, 2/5 guard dog breeds like Rottweiler, Pitbull; and mini poodle and Pekingese. It was fun finding out her ancestry!

Hello! I'm Axelle, a 27y.o. French woman. Currently working in a shop but really aiming to be an English audiovisual translator. Love watching shows on my laptop and listening to music from around the world. Not a big reader but On The Road by Jack Kerouac and Les Misérables by Victor Hugo are my two favorite books. More generally, I appreciate the works from the Beat Generation. Dreaming of going on a tour of American places recounting the history of African-American music (New Orleans especially) and visiting Melbourne.

Hi! I live in Georgia, US, the peach state where the weather is fantastic but peaches are rarely very good. 🍑🤣 I’m a writer, a certified coach & AFT practitioner, and a mom of 3 kids. I recently wrote a book for highly sensitive people & empaths. My favorite books are The Body Keeps the Score, The Lonesome Gods, & The Boy, the Mole, the Fox, & the Horse. That was hard to narrow down. 😅📚 Nice to meet you all. 🤗

i'm an infj artist living in obscurity in the pacific northwest wonderland, my name's bren, but i've been known online for many years now as ghost, perhaps due to my 'friendlyghost' personality, or my interest in photographing old cemeteries & trees..

for over 20 years i've hosted gumbyland, a site devoted to vintage kids who love & collect gumby <3

there's also an elaborate gallery of all my art & installations with music for anyone interested (sorry phones won't play the sound, only laptops/pcs)

i have 2 blogs where i post regularly, the lost & found toy blog is in its 10th year of daily posts, & the ghost blog where i ruminate over all things dark & psychological.. (all are welcome to visit ~ links are in my profile)

i use to run a support forum years ago called psychconnection..

i'm a nature lover & mother of cats, into rpg gaming & vintage books..

my favorite books are alice in wonderland, anything tolkien or poe..

although i am constantly expressing myself creatively, i have yet to begin to feel understood.. lol i am hoping other infjs can relate?

@ghost Same on the not being understood! I think the only peace that comes is with understanding that almost no one understands, but the few who do become enough. This seems like a nice place to find those who do. ☺️

Hi everyone.

My name's Audrey. I'm from Nigeria.

I work for a construction firm in administration.

I've had great interest in psychology and understanding people before I learnt about MBTI and being an INFJ.

I love deep, soulful conversations, ambient music, meditation, and literary works of fiction.

My three favorite books are:

Ben Hur by Lew Wallace
The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis (know it's a series but I'll just put it as one here)
Beyond Pardon by Bertha M. Clay

I recently read Ben Hur and loved it! Lewis has been a fave since I was a wee one. I'll have to check out Beyond Pardon, since I love the rest of your list. =)

Hi Audrey, well met! I see you have mentioned the Narnia series of books. I was seven years old when I read The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. I adored tales of other lands. They so influenced me along with documentaries, that I set off travelling to find other lands. I have been in Niger, just across your northern border and have enjoyed travel in Africa. My mission in life is Africa. I write of human psychology and human philosophy amongst many other things. All human related though and thinking of them all being in tune with mother nature!! My one contact in the world at this moment is a man from Kano. He came travelling to the town in Spain where I am living. He helped me find my sense of self worth again. It was HE that encouraged me to write my book. HE believes in me where none of those known to me do! THE WHOLE WORLD IS AFRICA Audrey, if only we could ALL understand that. Well met my friend!
