The Archivist | Perceiving Function | "I remember how it was."
Introverted Sensing (Si) is a perceiving function that stores and recalls detailed sensory impressions from past experiences. It creates a rich internal library of "how things are" based on direct experience.
Under extreme stress, Si-dominants may fall into the grip of inferior Ne, becoming paranoid about possibilities, imagining worst-case scenarios, or making impulsive changes.
The opposite of Introverted Sensing is Extraverted Sensing (Se). While Si focuses on perceiving information through sensing, Extraverted takes the opposite approach.
