If you’re new to Geek Psychology, my name is Matt Sherman. People call me Sherman. I'm a personality type expert, life coach, hypnotist, author, podcaster, and course creator. I help mainly INFPs embrace their unique strengths and navigate life's challenges. Through practical strategies and deep insights, I aim to help people like you live a more fulfilling and authentic live where you can wake up and feel good about who you are and your impact on the world. The main cause of an INFP getting angry is when they feel that their values are being violated. They are usually very patient people who are not quick to anger, but when they do get angry, it is usually because of something that has really hurt them in some way.
Sound familiar? "I'm an INFP and I'm feeling a strong emotion right now. It's anger. It's a really tough situation, but I know that I shouldn't let my anger get the best of me, because 1) it'll make me evil, and 2) it will only make things worse than they already are. That's why I need to stop and think before I do anything rash. Before I do anything, I need to understand why my anger is so high and find a way to calm down."
And something else to think about, the paradox of rage is that it can be connected to sadness and depression or emotions that haven't been expressed. Underneath that anger is often one of those issues but they're misunderstood or taken at the level of anger. This leads to a build up of anger, which is manifested in the form of rage or outbursts when values are offended.
Although INFPs don't usually express these struggles - especially a male INFP due to societal expectations, I'd say that one of the strengths of our personality type (within the Myers-Briggs 16 personalities), is that we have access to these emotions! If you treat them as strengths and build better relationships with those feelings that triggered your stress, then you'll end up living a better life.
Treat each of the emotions as a friend giving you tips on how to live a better life. Not just once, but for all of the rest of the time you have on this weird planet. Never dismiss them. Transmute them if you must into better serving emotions, but don't repress them or push them down into your shadow. They're very important - even anger.

Now it all makes sense. Because I sometimes am shocked of the way I get upset and people often tell me I overreact or am too emotional. But it now makes sense to me.

@jenniferegilmez7873 2 года назад

I remember once someone was hurting my cat and I punched him , it was just an overwhelming rage. I was probably like 10 at the time ,but I completely agree when I do feel rage it's so strong it takes me awhile to cool down but it's also such a rare thing for me.

@infpsoul8956 2 года назад

i don't really get angry easly.if i get angry i stay quite and don't talk to anyone..the funny thing is that when i get angry i start to cry .and i hate that..😤

@tracyzimmerman7912 2 года назад

You don't want to see me angry. It's not pretty at all.

@gordwedel7231 Год назад

I would say that INFPs have such intense introverted feelings, when we get over-stressed and unfixable problems build and converge, the lid can blow! It's as much a surprise to the INFP as it is to the recipient.

@Enavor Год назад

My rage is expressed as silence. Nobody has power over you if they don't know what you're thinking. They might get a vibe somethings off (because infps, particularly powerful ones have a forcefield/vibe people can sense) but best to grey rock them. They've shown you their colours, you, however, don't need to return that favour back. Being a light unto yourself, your own sovereignty, is what matters. Silence does that best. It's worked for me beyond words (pun intended!)

@SEVENTHREEANDNINE

We get angry when people act rudely. Nothing to be ashamed of. Yes multiple perspectives. But when you see the manipulation, abuse, taken for a fool.. yup watch out but mostly I walk away and doesn’t matter who, unless a genuine apology, that’s not the energy I need to absorb. Protect your energies INFPs. Coming from someone whose a mature INFP. Championed the underdog and the narcissist unwittingly. So yes maybe I was the fool!

@Six4hooper Год назад

It’s kinda funny how it matches up wit how I think I’m pretty chill but if I’m stressed or mad and don’t get the space I ask for I’ll explode then look at myself like u couldn’t just hold it together

@Mysticgames136

Apperantely, I'm qualified as an INFP-T which means I could get irritated easily if someone is talking too much or anything that annoys me. When I get into a rage, it can get really intense, but that doesn't usually happen. When I am angry most of the time, I just try to ignore everyone and get some alone time to cool down but when something is provoking me, it can get ugly sometimes and I don't wanna be like that. As a kid, my anger issues were just really bad because I would keep exploding when I would get provoked. This video also described me pretty well because all the things said in the video were all like me.

@ANDROMEDAtheartist 2 года назад

Sometimes my empathetic side directly conflicts with my perfectionistic commanding side. Some of that "commanding" E-T function is very useful. It's almost like being numb on the inside to get it done. But yes, it's difficult to recognize when I'm getting too stressed. Then sarcasm ensues, followed by silent brooding, then I basically snap. Lol. Spot on with this.

@Coach13013 2 года назад

As a younger man INFP I had terrible rage.. but the fights were rarely mine..few would pick on me. It was for others, family or someone being bullied. I could be cold hearted plotting revenge for weeks.

@nin_tan 2 года назад

I expected a dive into the shadow functions, but I guess my definition of angry may lean more towards the extreme. When my Te comes out unwillingly I feel that I just become more matter-of-fact and distant, rather than releasing a build-up of rage. And some passive-aggression and sarcasm for sure.

@SolitareHeartz 2 года назад

Wow you sum it very nicely. I am so scared that I was like a werewolf with my emotions. From chill healing empath to a cold intense person. It is stress and feel side shuts off and the thinking mind takes over. It is kinda nice to show that mad/angry isn't bad but has a purpose. The way you tocuhed on the chain of acceptable emotions that the public and society perhaps sees as acceptable. Everyone wants you to be happy and positive, if you can't mad/annoyed is ok, but god forbid being depressed. It is so hard going thru life with the depression.

@yellowswallowtail33 2 года назад

Thank you so much for making this video. I am currently in a situation with a narcissist and the levels of crazy that is thrown my way has me having a lot of extreme anger because of the injustice and blatant insidious level of hate for no reason along with manipulating, gaslighting etc... hits me to my core and I understand that I'm falling right into the trap and outcome that said person wants to pull out of me. I feel out of control and very far from who I enjoy being. it is very true that we are as infps very passionate and very convicted when it comes to Injustice, bullying and hatred in this world. a lot of friends and family are having a hard time understanding that I choose not to hold my emotions back and stand up against said person meaning I would have to play along with his game and I choose not to and I choose to stand up and be a voice for this kind of behavior which sometimes can have an outcome that's undesirable for my side but I refuse to lay down and take this kind of abuse. I feel that as infps have a drive for peace love and togetherness so strong that it's off the charts compared to a lot of other personalities.... we can change the world and I like that.

@NicoleM_radiantbaby 2 года назад

Literally angry as I'm watching this. Thanks for putting it into perspective...

@solusman8200

Can you talk about INFP grudge? Because I've been feeling it for the past 2 weeks & my imaginative mind has come up with a very detailed plan to get justice & make that person experience the same pain they gave me.

@LadyLilith1015 2 года назад

I agree. And I feel that I constanctly go into Te grip and I become demanding, very strict and with very little patience. The good side of Te grip is that while yes, I do get very angry, I also gain a lot of energy and I can be productive lol.
