Why are INFJ personality types and INFP personality types so anxious? Is it just the “way we are” or can we do something about it? Most INFJ personality types and INFP personality types suffer from anxiety. Some of us experience catastrophic thinking, and some of us overthink constantly and worry about the future. Some of us feel lowgrade anxiety all the time, but the anxiety isn’t focused on any one thing.

Most INFJ personality types and INFP personality types say: “I’ve always been this way.” “I’m just an anxious person.” “This is just the way I am.” Very few INFJ personality types and INFP personality types connect their anxiety to energetic sensitivity. However, both of these personality types are highly sensitive to energy, and in fact, are two of the most energetically sensitive types out of the entire MBTI personality system.

INFJs and INFPs pick up on the energy of others’ emotions, the energy of groups, the energy of communications (texts, emails, the news), the energy of locations, and energy in general. This is because our energy field is more open and porous than most people, and so everything comes in with no barriers. Added to this is the fact that most INFJs and INFPs push themselves to “be normal” and be as extroverted as everyone else. So, we might stay at the party for hours, work long hours at the office, and socialize too much and do too much. This is when we become depleted and more vulnerable to outside energies.
