Hey everyone! 🌿

If you're an INFJ from Pakistan or simply interested in connecting with like-minded people, consider joining r/INFJPakistan.

The idea behind this community is to create a comfortable space where Pakistani INFJs can discuss personality, mental health, books, philosophy, career struggles, relationships, creativity, spirituality, and the unique experience of being an INFJ in our culture.

Whether you're a student, a working professional, or just trying to understand yourself better, you're welcome here. Introverts, deep thinkers, and anyone who enjoys meaningful conversations are especially encouraged to join.

We're hoping to build a positive, respectful, and supportive community where people can genuinely connect without judgment.

Would love to see more fellow INFJs there. 💙

Hello everyone! Hello everyone! I'm a Pakistani final-year BS Biochem student. Kindly inform me if I have any chance of being accepted.

cGPA: 3.9 out of 4.0

I've completed several internships.

Social work: I was employed by two non-governmental organizations.

Project: The thesis project at my university begins in last semester. Currently, no research project

I've noticed that when I try to offer advice to people, they become defensive. I always make an effort to listen, acknowledge their emotions, and then offer guidance. However, I find it intolerable when people make fun of others, so I immediately point out their actions. However, I now understand that if someone is unwilling to solve their own problems and behaviors, it is not my place to correct them. What should I do, then, if I am unable to offer guidance? Second, unless someone truly needs help, I don't want them to traumatize me. How can I do that? I would appreciate any guidance or experience.

I am excited to launch an Instagram page dedicated to skincare and makeup! As a biochemist with extensive knowledge in this field, I want to create valuable content for you. Here are a few questions to help guide my efforts:

What types of content would you find most engaging?

2. Which specific skin concerns would you like me to address?

3.What qualities do you value in a skincare influencer?

​

I don't know if this is an INFJ thing or just a me thing, but I feel like I'm always chasing something.

The second I achieve one goal, my brain immediately finds another. If I'm studying, I'm thinking about what I should study next. If I'm working on improving my appearance, I'm already thinking about the next thing I could improve. If I finish one task, I instantly start planning the next one.

It's like my mind is constantly scanning for the next goal, the next improvement, the next thing to work on.

The weird part is that I don't really know how to rest. When I have free time, instead of enjoying it, I start feeling like I should be doing something productive. Reading, learning, exercising, planning, fixing something about myself anything. Just sitting and doing nothing feels uncomfortable.

In some ways, this mindset has helped me grow. But it's also exhausting because I never feel fully satisfied. No matter how much I accomplish, there's always another goal waiting. Sometimes I wonder what it would feel like to simply exist without constantly trying to optimize myself.

Do any other INFJs relate to this? How do you stay productive without turning your entire life into a never ending self improvement project? How do you let yourself rest without feeling guilty?
