Am I the only one that has started to overthink my overthinking, only to overthink how I am overthinking about my overthinking?

[fionascheibel]

Yep. I hate when someone says. "So tell me a bit about yourself". That never goes well for me.

[lauraf.e]

Oh, the list is long for me:
Bad in group settings
Horrible driver
Generalised anxiety
Not suited to office jobs
Social anxiety
Bad at relationships
Overthink everything
Terrible at phone calls
Bad at small talk

Could keep going but gonna stop now

Hey David, I read a meme "being called smart because you have a variety of information on different subjects but in reality it's all surface level intelligence and you don't feel like you're really good at anything" on a infj meme page and this happens to me like all the time. Is it normal for infjs to feel dumb all the time!?? Can you make a video on that???? :)

Omg (INFJ here) if I could ever muster up the courage to speed date, sounds like a nightmare, and someone told me that they like to watch random science videos and told me that the human body had 100 sphincters I would know I found the person I want to see again.

1. Meditation - Can't do it because it causes overthinking!
2. Social Interaction - I avoid people because I don't like that awkward feeling. So I should practice to get more comfortable...maybe.
3. Self Care - Does loading up on craft supplies for projects that never get done count?
Great food for thought David! I will contemplate this in my next overthinking session!

“Maybe don’t start out with talking about I don’t know, the theories of quantum entanglement”
I have done this, some people said their brain started hurting.

“Not everything has to be an awful moment locked in your own head.” Wow. I rewound that four times. Feeling that comment. Thank you.

[SarahJEveryday]

Oh man....the meditation part made me laugh so hard. I was thinking, "I hope he goes down a rabbit hole so that I know I am not the only one who does...." Bam. Spot on. When you got to the Amazon shopping part, I was dying of laughter. Thank you for making me feel less alone with how my brain works. These videos are so great. 😂

I heard the words "Self depreciating humor" and I was immediately interested.

As an INFJ with 30 years of meditation experience, +25 years of teaching meditation, I believe I can share some insight. One first needs to learn to concentrate well before attempting meditation. Once concentration is improved i.e. focusing your thoughts on one thing, expanding it to meditation becomes much easier. Listening to meditation music while practising both concentration and meditation techniques helps, especially those whose minds run amuck. Hope this tip helps.

I have a tendency to overeat when stressed, especially if I feel financially insecure - wondering if I'll have enough to ear, due to an early childhood emotional trauma... was hungry for the first three months of my life. Was told the easiest way to deal with it is to surround myself with food. It does work. When I worked for a while as a waitress in a restaurant and was surrounded with food, I lost significant weight, while others gained it. Funny, ha? Just sharing my human imperfections... in the hope someone else can relate and not feel alone.

" empty your mind ", thimble and ocean springs to mind !!!.

[theepitomiclife]

Infjs and meditation. It took me 6 months not to overthink in a yoga class. While the instructor was telling us not to think of anything. I was thinking "of course I can do it", simultaneously my mind was racing.... 🙃. Thank you for a clear and funny explanation of us.

[DJ-qpet]

A 20 minute video, just as I'm about to go to bed? Really? All good, I can stay up and watch this... Wait, are you going to bring up 'bad at going to bed on time'? Ok I'm feeling singled out already...

[branver]

Do any other INFJs have a difficult time remembering sensory details from small talk? Even if you care about the person?

[LillithLeonard]

Interesting that you mentioned being locked into one's own head. I find myself slipping into a depression because my life has essentially taken away that opportunity. I'm locked OUT of my own head. Too much time in chameleon mode, I guess.

[IYKYKtwins]

Too far too fast. Story of my life. I am the open book INFJ...I scare people. 😳
Also, not triggered. 😝 Amazon loves me.

[dreamyotter]

David is making 2020 a litter easier for me despite the year's craziness. You are seriously motivating us.

[ruthlessfairy]

As an INFJ, I found that meditation brings me more anxiety than other activities. People told me I didn't try "hard" enough (can you force meditation, though?). Instead, I choose to take my thinking mind into a yoga session (Se inferior LOVES it), put some music on, bake and cook. That's my kind of meditation :) When I overthink, I tend to let it out into writing all emotions down, then tend to, once again, that Se inferior! In time I find it comforting (food helps, lol).

Oh you poor thing! Meditating! I was cry-laughing. I’ve been meditating for ten years, everyday, as an INFJ. And everyday, my brain is just like yours. Without fail. I sit through it and eventually my brain calms down. I relate it to a kid burning off every last bit of energy before bed in a furious rush of activity. It’s like my brain is doing as much as possible because it knows it’s almost time for “bed” (meditation). But here’s the kicker - after the words stop forming my thoughts, images take over and I go through the entire blaze of brain activity again with images instead of words. And when that’s done, finally, my brain is quiet and I feel an out of body sensation (yet in-body sensation at the same time) and it’s peaceful. It’s a good solid 45 minutes of sheer brain-running activity with about 15 minutes (if I’m lucky) of calm peace. And it’s worth it. When I first started, I would go to two-hour sittings at a Zen Buddhist Temple on Sundays. For about three years, it would take me an hour or more before my brain stopped running. Glancing at people around me, who were breathing deeply and looking so relaxed, it seemed like everyone else in the room had reached zen A LOT faster than me. Which led me to wonder if I was doing it wrong and if I should take a meditation class again, or read a book about it. Or maybe I needed to be outside while meditating? Maybe a bell would help? Music? Chanting? What am I going to make for dinner? Am I just wasting my Sunday mornings?! Who am I?! ;) Anyways...great way to exhibit the extra time and effort it takes to quiet the active mind. ❤️
