Are you an introvert?

Terrific explainer by introverteed.com/blogs/news/an… #comic #art

1: Holy Crap! You're an Introvert?? But you're always so friendly and talkative and nice to everyone! 2: Despite popular belief, a lot of introverts can be pretty social. The big difference is that it drains our “social battery” and we have to recharge after awhile. 1: Cool I get it! So what happens when o your social battery runs out of-- 2: Poof (disappears) 1: Oh.

An introduction to the introvert social battery

People think that introverts are incapable of basic human interaction and emotion, like we are social recluses because we seemingly don't like to talk and hate everyone.

Definitely. Spent 5 days with family, 2 weeks ago, being social. It was great fun, but (as so often) it was way more than I can handle. Did it anyway because I only see them once every couple of years. The result? A good time, most of the time, and 2 days on the couch, knock-out with the curtains closed, after they left. Even though the weather changed and became sunny and warm, I couldn't get outside for anything longer than a 10 minute grocery trip. Totally drained.

i WISH I could just go POOF instead of getting more irrationally miserable the longer I can't get away.

I think I might be in this 🤔 it's not someting I had really thought of before, but it might help me understand myself better.
Not really sure what to make of it yet, but perhaps it might get me somewhere.

So - thanks, I guess 🙏

I am an introvert, and I always wondered what would happen when I reached the end of my social reserves.

This is me, I do a job where I talk to hundreds of people a day, so when I quit, I just want to peace myself out of people.
