I'm also an INFP like Sera
. Makes sense, makes sense.
So, as I was reading this (the first page at that), I almost lost my mind because I always have existential crisis (had one last week and my friend had to call me and rein me back in) aka this is so my personality:

...become dejected and overwhelmed by all the bad in the world that they can’t fix. This is a sad sight for INFPs’ friends, who will come to depend on their rosy outlook... If they are not careful, INFPs can lose themselves in their quest for good and neglect the day-to-day upkeep that life demands...

More me, especially considering I'm about to release my poetry book (yep, I will keep mentioning it because I've been too scared to do it and admit it) and want to write novels

it's no wonder that many INFPs are celebrated poets and authors.

The weaknesses are totally moi, but also like Sera, I don't think I'm difficult to know! Well, not anymore. Sometimes I should shut up more lol.
I'm also not afraid of conflict and I don't avoid it as much as it says. In the past, si, but I've passed that trait. Guess I worked on it and got better indeed.
Whenever I disappear from boards (and outernet life, too), this is it:

INFPs will always need to disappear for a while, removing themselves from others so they can re-center on their own minds and feelings.

It also summarized my career aspirations perfectly. I struggled so much to find a "thing" and now I sort of have a whatever schedule happening and I feel so much better.

It is perhaps more challenging for INFPs to find a satisfying career than any other type. Though intelligent, the regimented learning style of most schools makes long years earning an advanced degree a formidable undertaking... First and foremost is seemingly every INFPs' dream growing up - to become an author... Service careers such as ... counselling, social work, psychology and even academic roles and retraining can be exceptionally rewarding for INFPs...there are a few basic truths about what INFPs seek in the workplace: they value harmony, need an emotional and moral connection to their work, and loathe bureaucratic tedium... [they] aren't looking for easy, forgettable work that pays the bills, they're looking for meaningful work that they actually want to think about
