hi there--infj & hsp here. the article seems spot-onto me. i have to psyche myself up to go to the mall & then recover afterwards. my best coping strategy is taking a walk with my dogs or even just sitting in nature. i've decided that that's because nature has no agenda, no underlying emotions that i will absorb like a sponge, as people have. (of course my dogs do have an unending agenda of getting food, but that doesn't upset me.) i have created a quiet life for myself of homemaking, reading & some volunteer work for a cause i believe in passionately. i'm a cliche!!
