As an INFP I feel like the link from my brain to my mouth is broken, like how I sound in my head vs when I speak out loud is completely different.... Something just goes wrong in the middle

[mehwhatever]

Saw the title...

My mouth: no
My brain: yes
My feeling: hurts

[xexoize]

Me academically: all A's
Me at home: is told to bring a spoon, walks out holding a knife, walks into a wall, has to read a word five times because it seems wrong...

I always find it extremely hard explaining my point to someone and end up being misunderstood or even seem stupid to some, and since i tend to overthink a lot, I end up feeling frustrated thinking that the other person now has a negative image of me just because my brain and speech wasn't able to coordinate together :')

"Are INFP's stupid?" My INFP brain: *cries in low self-esteem*

[jencreegan]

INFP here and I can see why people think we're dumb. I think it's when we get so burnt out on human interaction that we cant focus on talking anymore.
But when we get going on topics that are passionate to us - we become livelier and chattier and very knowledgable about our subject. Unfortunately there is no one that is interested in the things we are passionate about lol

People literally believe I'm innocent and naive and have no clue. I laugh internally at them. They have no idea.

[jessiet]

I always feel so safe in comment sections with my fellow INFPs :))

Title: *Are INFPs stupid?*
My sensitive INFP ass: *breaks down and dies*

[zombieconfetticannon]

Title: “Are infps dumb?”
Me, an infp: *immediately upset bc I’m sensitive*

[eliseintheattic]

My daughter is an INFP and she's very smart, but she's very slow and deliberate in the way she expresses herself so some people may misinterpret. She just doesn't pop off with whatever comes to mind, but thinks it through before opening her mouth. She's very quiet and sometimes it amazes me how much she picks up while the rest of us are yacking away.

[lovelykit]

brain: *super detailed logical smart smart stuff*
mouth: "no."

[angiec]

Mean person: You’re stupid!
INFP: Thanks, you too! I mean...

[fiorellalescano]

I really like this phrase: The opposite of your preference is not necessarily weak.
I guess we should learn more about this.
Nice work, Frank. :)

INFPs are emotionally intelligent and i think that's very important

[cco]

Im an INFP and I have the potential to be book smart but in too lazy to act on it. I am much more emotionally intelligent. I have alot of self doubt and I spend my days daydreaming about awkward situations and romantasizing future situations. My brain is a chamber of self doubt. Advice for people who feel the same way I do: learn how to meditate and focus on being stress free, positive self talk, and letting go of doubts and fear. You are capable of all

“Are INFPs and INFJs dumb...?”
Me(INFJ) and my INFP friend watching:

👁👄👁

[moonlight.z]

“So, INTJs are smarter, _right?”_

Me, an INTJ: *Looking for my phone while watching this*

I'm an INFP who never really identified with the stereotype of being irrational. It's more like... I think through the matter from all different perspectives, including engaging in a rational analysis, just at the end of the day I do what feels best. It's as if I let rationality and logic inform my feeling, and it also prepares me for any criticism I get for the decision I've made because I already thought of their arguments beforehand.
On the other hand, I work in engineering, and it's like taking a break from Fi, which is also kinda nice.
