Living As An INFJ

INFJ Tips: How To Use Your Sixth Sense To Predict Danger

Previously in Guide To Surviving As An INFJ...

-Difficult to get to know: They have very vivid and complex lives, their lives have so many aspects, and their brains are full of ideas, opinions, and thoughts.

That's what I said I'd talk about in the next chapter, which is now.

INFJs have very complex lives. They pay attention to every aspect and know themselves very well.

For example, as an INFJ, some aspects of my life could be School, Future, Health, Relationships, Stories, Shows, etc.

We always dream big, and get the best ideas. I've been called the "silent helper" a couple times amongst my friends.

The silent helper means, they have the perfect answer, always know the answer, but since we're INFJ, we never speak up.

INFJs have very controversial opinions, and they're always full of detail. As a YouTuber on Sarvae PCM, I always make a lot of opinion videos, controversy videos.

I think my favorite word right now is controversial, LOL.

This is because INFJs have so many ideas, views, and thoughts on the world that it uses up a lot of their time.

We, as INFJs, like to think. A LOT. Even more than we love to talk about stuff, we use our brains more than our mouths.

We're always busy observing our surroundings, so much that we lose focus of the task at hand.

But, when they realize that there's no visible or impending threat, that doesn't ever calm them. The other day I think I was in sleep paralysis, and I hallucinated of a black shadow with red eyes and a gun walking closer to the bed I was sleeping on. It was creepy, and I was frozen with panic.

INFJs know that threats aren't always visible, and as adults, they always make sure to keep their smoke alarms working.

As an INFJ, I was freaked out of being alone upstairs because I was worried of a fire in the house.

But here's a helpful tip if something like this happens to you:

Think. Utilize your brain. If you don't know what to think, ask yourself:

Are the smoke alarms on?

Is the stove on?

Is the oven on? What about the microwave?

And if you're at home right now, or once you reach home, go make sure the smoke alarms are on, and turn off the stove, oven, and microwave.

If this doesn't release tension, then do this using your six senses (INFJs have 6, not 5):

Smell. Sniff the air, does it smell smoky? Does it smell like fish?

If you smell smoke, inform any other people living with you, and find out where the smoke is coming from. If it's outside, be a little cautious but don't worry. If it smells like fish, though, don't on any switches, evacuate the house, and call the local emergency services number and explain the problem. There may be a gas leak.

Hearing. Any crackling noises? Does it sound like a fire or some other source of danger?

You can't much hear a fire, but crackling is a very big issue. Keep in mind, if you identify any emergency signs such as smells, sounds, etc, evacuate. If no one in your family listens, then tell them you'll evacuate on your own.

Sight. Do you see any orange, red, or grayish-brown glow anywhere nearby? Check the windows, doors, etc. If yes, evacuate, there might be a fire!

Taste. Unfortunately, you know we can't taste a fire, but if your throat feels blocked, you're choking or suffocating, or you feel like you've just inhaled smoke, that's a sign.

And now, for your sixth sense, use your INTUITION. That's an INFJs sixth sense. Do you sense that there's a fire or one might start? Is anybody cooking now? Have you seen any of the signs listed above? Do you just sense it, a strong fear or worry? Grab some stuff, pack them up into a bag, and keep them by the exit. When you escape, you can grab it and put it outside. Only pack light, important stuff like journals and electronic devices. Not too many. There also may be an instance where you can't exit from there, in that case find another exit. You're more important than your stuff! And research fire safety tips and rules, like touching the door handle before opening it to see if it's hot, and crawling under the smoke, etc.

So that wraps it up. We started and ended with two different topics. See, I told you we have broad minds.
